Over the past several years, closed system catheters have become the preferred method for performing sterile intermittent catheterization for a wide variety of people. For those who use wheelchairs, have limited use of their hands or experience frequent urinary tract infections, closed system catheters are an excellent and effective option. Closed system catheters are secure, discreet and can be used virtually anywhere (i.e. bathroom, private room or car). This is a huge advantage over traditional intermittent catheters. |

5 Reasons To Use Summit
Welcome to Summit Express
Urgent and Extremely Important!!
Within the past year an extremely disturbing trend has emerged. More and more insurance companies are excluding sterile intermittent catheters and other related supplies from their policies.
Insurance companies are currently excluding all urological supplies from some of their renewals after previously covering these items. It is extremely important during this open enrollment period to confirm that your new policy still covers sterile intermittent catheters, closed system catheters, hydrophilic catheters, leg bags, bedside bags and external condom catheters.
Don’t just assume that all of your urological supplies will continue to be covered. Please be proactive and contact your HR department or insurance agent to confirm that all urological supplies are covered in your new policy. You can also contact us and we will verify that your policy covers your urological supplies. 203-292-5043
