Yes, you need to have the doctor give you a prescription for the equipment, then it is covered. We use MyDMEdoc in the villages, (Spanish Springs), Medicare covers a new machine every 5 years, and all of the masks, tubing, etc., on a quarterly basis. myDMEdoc is great once you get your account and equipment set up.
