Re: Apria wants my Data Card

Thanks for all the help - I downloaded my data into sleepyhead and put a SDHC card that I had already, into the machine to cover the time the other card is gone. I hope this means that Apria will finally submit bills to my provider and that the provider is going to buy the machine after this time pe...

Apria wants my Data Card

Received a letter from Apria yesterday - now they want me to send my Data card in for proof of compliance to my insurance. I go on their website each month to comply, and when I called they told me my insurance provider is requesting that. They said my machine will continue to store data and when th...

Re: Nasal pillows vs nasal mask

I started with a FFM - even at the sleep study, when it became clear that I, in fact, do have claustrophobia, they wouldn't put a nasal mask on me. Then when I asked the doctor she said I'd she really wanted me to use the FFM - even doctors have a lot to learn. So my DME gave me the mask I wore at t...

Re: Apria. Is this a new machine? (Resmed S9)

Update: Apria has agreed to replace the used Resmed S9 Autoset I received with a brand new machine. I am picking it up tomorrow (5/15/2014). p.s. Apria has a new policy that just started this past Monday. All calls to their local offices now go to a central customer service center, and they have to...

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

I pulled the plug on Apria yesterday, and hired my new provider today (ACS Medical) The only contracted Medicare provider in town for cpap, this is a two person office, austere, no pretense. I'm looking forward to doing business with them. Glad you could go to another provider. I had a hard time fi...

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

Well, my provider called back - my balance with Apria is zero. You would think that's a good thing....but actually it's because they charged my credit card for the 521 AND another 70.75. Tomorrow I will be faxing a letter to apria to cease and desist. How I'm going to get my supplies is another mat...

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

Scootergirl, there are enough resources on this forum to keep you in supplies should that need arise. For now you need to take some deep breaths and settle down a little. Get a good nights rest then tomorrow give the HELL!!! Thank you. My husband was reasoning that, like our dentist if they billed ...

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

I'm pretty sick to my stomach right now Scootergirl: Too bad you're not real close to your Apria local office, otherwise you could go over and ask to see the manager, then get sick all over their executive style desk I'm not that far from them, but they're closed now......don't think it didn't occu...

Really don't want to do that. But I may have to get a new card.

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

Soooo, just got off the phone with my insurance provider....they are still in the process of contacting Apria. They are on hold so rather than keep me on hold, they'll call me back - I really like that my insurer does this. Now for the funny part - Apria hasn't submitted any bills to my insurer. The...

Re: Just Got a CC Charge from Apria!

@hobbs - great advice, I didn't know you could do this. @scootergirl - how did it go. Hope you were able to get it successfully reversed. Thanks for all your great suggestions - I have them all written down. I was not able to call anyone yesterday - by the time I got home they were long gone. Today...
