NOg,

  It depends on what problems you are having.  I know the recent hurricanes in the southeast and fires in CA have caused a delay in delivery.  Or are you talking about the product failing?

YES!! I am very UNHAPPY with EDGEPARK!! Used to get ALL supplies I ordered within 2 DAYS!! NOW this last order was placed Oct 8th which was 2 boxes of POUCHES - 2 boxes of BARRIERS -and 2 bottles of DEODERANT.  After 5 CALLS to EDGEPARK and my Insurance company -SENIOR CARE PLUS-I just got them on Oct25th!!! It was ALWAYS saying WAITING FOR APPROVAL from PRIMARY DR-which he had FAXED to them!!  FINALLY after my INS company had a 3 WAY telephone conversation with them and my HUSBAND-got THEM SHIPPED!! This is the ONLY COMPANY my INS has a CONTRACT WITH!! VERY UNHAPPY WITH EDGEPARK!!!!

Hey Walderpee, I had the same problems with the Dr. approval stalling,Edgepark was bought out by cardinal health and went downhill fast . My Dr. office got fed up with them also. I would order 2 boxes of bags, rings , wipes and 2 m9 deordrant every month, finally switched to Liberator with great customer service. Illiostomy supplies should not be a problem, we have enough headaches!! No problems with Liberator, sorry Edgepark.

THANKS New Orleans for your information about Edgepark. The ONLY problem is that my Health Ins. does NOT cover Liberator supplies. I have decided to ORDER every month regardless if I need the supplies or not. That way I will never run out waiting for them to get my supplies to me.
