Eight supplier standards
Compliance with all eight supplier standards — including licensure, surety bond, physical facility, and beneficiary protections — documented and verified, or the pack does not release.
The most rigorous DMEPOS survey-readiness pack a supplier can have.
SurveyLock assembles a documentation-complete accreditation survey-readiness binder — every CMS supplier standard, every required document, the corrective action plan, and the audit-response package — checked against the letter of 42 CFR Part 424 and each Accrediting Organization's protocol before a credentialed compliance officer releases it.

Why packs fail
A single missing document can trigger a revocation.
A DMEPOS supplier's accreditation survey is only as strong as the documentation behind it. Miss one of the five required document categories, skip a required search, mis-time the annual cycle, or fail to produce a corrective action plan within the deadline — and the survey can result in a deficiency, a CAP, or even revocation.
Most suppliers run this by hand, from memory, once every three years. The regulations have not been read end-to-end since the last survey. That is exactly where completeness gaps hide.
SurveyLock exists to close that gap with a single, exhaustive standard applied identically to every file.

missing document categories is enough to jeopardize accreditation
The benchmark
Measured against the letter of the regulation — subsection by subsection.
We do not summarize the law and hope. Every pack is scored against a versioned rule pack tied to the exact text of 42 CFR §424.57(c) and each AO's survey protocol. These are the provisions each pack is held to.
Annual survey cycle
The survey-readiness binder is verified to be current within the 12-month cycle, computed deterministically — never estimated.
Every required document
All required documents — including proof of accreditation, surety bond, liability insurance, and business licenses — established by search, not assumption.
Out-of-state supplier search duty
For suppliers operating in multiple states, a reasonable document search in each jurisdiction of operation is ordered and evidenced.
Conspicuous posting
A posting checklist for both the physical facility and the supplier's website, with the exact regulatory placement requirements.
CAP, reconsideration, audit response
The mandatory CAP for any deficiency, the PTAN Reconsideration process, and the CERT/TPE/UPIC audit-response package — sequenced on the calendar so nothing is missed.
How a pack is built
Intake to credentialed release, with deterministic gates the AI cannot overrule.
AI extracts and drafts. Deterministic rules — running as code, outside the model — decide what is complete. A credentialed compliance officer signs every release. That order is never reversed.
01
Gap Scan
Upload the supplier's current documents and survey history. We return a free completeness read: which regulatory standards and documents you already have, and which are missing.
02
Evidence & document searches
As your authorized clerical agent, we order the CMS, AO, NPI, NPI-II, and PTAN searches and build the document matrix, corroborated across sources.
03
Grounded drafting
The five document categories are drafted from your validated data and the §424.57 rule pack into field-locked templates — no legal opinions, no invented facts.
04
Deterministic completeness gates
Documents reconcile to the regulatory checklist; the annual cycle is verified; the search checklist is resolved; any deficiency triggers a mandatory CAP. Any failure blocks release.
05
Credentialed release
A credentialed compliance officer reviews the exception queue and signs the release. High-value or multi-state suppliers route to attorney review first.
06
Delivery
You receive the pack: survey-readiness binder, document matrix, evidence log, posting checklist, and the annual calendar — ready for the supplier to present at survey.

Why SurveyLock
Built to be the most thorough option a supplier has.
Documentation-complete, by design
The deliverable is completeness itself — every regulatory standard and document accounted for or explicitly exception-coded. Nothing is left implicit.
Deterministic, not vibes
The gates that decide completeness are code, not a model's opinion. A drafting error cannot slip past a regulatory requirement.
In its lane, on purpose
We prepare documentation and run searches as your clerical agent. We never contact the surveyor, give legal advice, or conduct the survey.
Engagement
Flat fee, per released pack. No hourly billing, ever.
Simple, predictable, and aligned with a documentation standard — not a cut of any recovery.
- A free Gap Scan before you commit — see exactly what is missing.
- One flat fee per released Survey-Readiness Binder; disclosed pass-through search fees.
- Optional fixed-fee attorney review for high-value or multi-state suppliers.
- Optional Audit-Defense Add-on for CAP, Reconsideration, and CERT/TPE/UPIC response packages, pre-dated to your survey cycle.
FAQ
Questions, answered precisely.
Is SurveyLock a law firm?
No. SurveyLock, a service of Your Deputy, Obuke LLC, provides documentation-completeness services. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not represent you in any legal matter. Attorney review is available and recommended for high-value or multi-state suppliers.
Do you contact the surveyor or represent the supplier?
Never. SurveyLock is not a surveyor and does not contact accrediting organizations or CMS on your behalf. The supplier remains the accredited entity and the party responsible for presenting all documentation at survey.
What makes a pack 'complete'?
Completeness is defined by the regulation: the eight supplier standards of 42 CFR §424.57(c) documented, the annual cycle verified, the required documents resolved or exception-coded, identity corroborated, and any deficiency triggering a mandatory CAP. Deterministic gates enforce each one before release.
How fast is it?
The standard SLA is five business days from complete intake to a credentialed-officer released pack. The free Gap Scan is returned much sooner and tells you exactly what is still needed.
How are you priced?
A flat fee per released pack, plus disclosed pass-through search costs. No hourly billing and no percentage of any recovered amount or sale proceeds.
