My current CPAP Machine is displaying a message that it should be replaced. I obtained it years ago while I was on private health insurance.

I remember that the buying experience was somewhat of a nuisance. The "Sleep Doctor" seemed mainly interested in selling supplies and I was required to have numerous office visits until it was fully paid. During the visits they would just read the sleep results to me that I could see on the Airsense App. Plus, if I didn't log the required sleep hours, I would be required to pay their full price.

I notice that I can buy a unit online for probably much less than my deductible was at the time. I also notice I can pay for a "prescription".

Does anybody have experience with obtaining one on Medicare and is it worth the hassle compared to a direct purchase?
