What AirwayManagement does

Airway Management, Inc. is a home medical equipment (HME) and clinical respiratory provider headquartered in Kissimmee, Florida, founded in 1998 and operating for over 25 years. The company delivers in-home medical equipment and clinical respiratory services to patients across 12 Florida counties (Brevard, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Polk, Seminole, Sumter, Volusia, Pinellas, Hillsborough, Manatee, and Pasco), with a product portfolio that spans respiratory care devices — ventilators including LTV and Trilogy/EVO models, BiPAP/CPAP machines, portable oxygen concentrators, cough assist devices (CoughAssist and AffloVest), suction pumps, pulse oximeters, and nebulizers — durable medical equipment such as hospital beds, wheelchairs, and patient lifts, enteral feeding pumps, and incontinence supplies. Airway Management is accredited by ACHC as both a Home Medical Equipment and Clinical Respiratory Provider and holds in-good-standing Medicare and Medicaid provider status.\n\nThe business operates on an insurance-based reimbursement model in which equipment is sold or rented and clinical respiratory services are billed through Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers including Oscar Health, Florida Blue, Ambetter, Cigna, Humana, and Aetna. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct-to-patient: equipment is delivered and set up in patients' homes by trained staff including Respiratory Therapists, with patient acquisition driven by phone outreach, hospital referrals (AdventHealth, Nemours, Orlando Health), and the company website. The company also provides emergency preparedness support for patients on life-sustaining equipment across its service area. In April 2026, Airway Management entered a strategic distribution partnership with MellingMedical to make TAP Sleep Care's myTAP and myTAP PAP oral appliances available to veterans and active-duty military personnel through federal healthcare channels, aligned with 2025 VA & DoD Clinical Practice Guidelines.

Direct peers

• Lincare: Lincare is a leading U.S. provider of respiratory and home medical equipment services, with deep coverage in oxygen therapy, nebulizers, and sleep therapy. It overlaps directly with Airway Management's respiratory and DME offering and serves a similar payor and patient mix.
• National HME: National HME is a hospice-focused home medical equipment provider serving multiple U.S. states. Its hospital bed, oxygen, and respiratory equipment offering, combined with clinician-driven service, makes it a relevant peer for Airway Management's DME and respiratory portfolio.
• Aeroflow Healthcare: Aeroflow is a digitally led U.S. home medical equipment provider specializing in sleep therapy, oxygen, and respiratory products distributed via insurance. It competes for the same Florida and Southeast patients Airway Management serves, with a stronger online intake funnel.
• Apria Healthcare: Apria is a large U.S. provider of home medical equipment and respiratory therapy, including oxygen, ventilators, and sleep therapy. It is directly comparable to Airway Management in product mix and home-respiratory service model, but operates at national scale versus Airway Management's Florida-only footprint.
• AdaptHealth: AdaptHealth is a national provider of home medical equipment, sleep therapy, and respiratory services, including CPAP/BiPAP and oxygen. It is a direct competitor in product lines and patient acquisition channels, but at materially larger scale than Airway Management.
• Rotech Healthcare: Rotech provides home respiratory equipment, sleep therapy, and home medical equipment across multiple U.S. states. Its product portfolio and home-delivery model closely mirror Airway Management's, making it a strong direct peer despite being a larger, publicly traded company.
• Quipt Home Medical: Quipt Home Medical provides home respiratory and sleep therapy equipment across the U.S., with a comparable mix of ventilators, BiPAP/CPAP, and oxygen concentrators. While larger and geographically broader, it competes for the same referral and reimbursement channels.

Broad incumbents

• Option Care Health: Option Care Health is a large national home and alternate-site infusion services provider. While primarily focused on infusion, it serves similar chronic and clinically complex patients through home-based care channels and occasionally bundles respiratory support, making it an adjacent incumbent peer.
• Coram (CVS Health): Coram, part of CVS Health, provides home infusion and respiratory services nationally. Its home respiratory and enteral feeding overlap with Airway Management's ventilator and feeding pump business, though Coram is a much broader incumbent within CVS Health's portfolio.
• ModivCare: ModivCare provides personal care, home medical equipment, and non-emergency medical transportation across the U.S. Its home respiratory and DME segments overlap with Airway Management's offering, though it operates as a diversified incumbent with broader services.
