How do I get a CPAP machine prescription?
Getting a CPAP machine isn’t hard, but you will need a prescription before purchasing.
Getting a Sleep Apnea Diagnosis and CPAP Prescription
To get a CPAP machine, you’ll need a prescription first, which starts with a sleep study and sleep apnea diagnosis.
The path to a sleep apnea diagnosis involves a sleep study to test the number of apnea events that occur during your sleep. Sleep studies can be done at home, like the one CPAP.com offers, or in a sleep lab. The results of the sleep study will determine a sleep apnea diagnosis. Once the sleep study confirms sleep apnea, your doctor will recommend a course of treatment. Typically, a doctor will prescribe a CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP machine for use while sleeping. These devices gently blow pressurized air into the airway, opening it, so blockages are removed, and air can reach the lungs.
It’s important to point out, simply snoring is not a guarantee that a person has sleep apnea. Other symptoms must also be present to get a firm diagnosis, including daytime drowsiness, fatigue, suddenly falling asleep while driving or bored, or waking up gasping or choking.
Getting a CPAP Machine
A prescription will usually specify the kind of machine your doctor recommends for your therapy.
– A CPAP prescription will allow customers to purchase a CPAP or an APAP machine
– An APAP prescription allows for the purchase of an APAP machine
– A BiPAP prescription can only be used to purchase a BiPAP machine.
You can lease a new CPAP machine through insurance or purchase a new CPAP machine from a direct to consumer supplier like https://moyeahstore.com/ We specialize in providing CPAP machines to people who want to use their own money to purchase a CPAP machine.
