All brands fit with the 420S and E. The only problem that may occur is the software may record erroneously because it was not tested with a certain mask.

Leinie, The Fisher Paykel is a good working machine. They invented heated humidification. Make sure you get the latest model, the 234. The lady you spoke with is somewhat clueless. The 2 comes in a BiPAP Pro 2 and a Remstar Pro 2 with C-CFlex. Also a good machine that offers pressure relief upon exh...

No, never heard of it. Any good?

Ok, I am not the author of this, but it belongs in this thread as well. Please try to understand some of these points the guest makes when it comes to DME pricing. " I hope I can address the DME haters for a moment. Ive come across many comments condemning them as evil, etc and wanted to share some ...

Two BIG problems here Rog. 1.) Request to your DME you want an Auto. Get the Rx from your Doc. Insurance pays for CPAP biling code E0601. It does not matter what machine it is the insurance will pay the same amount. 2.) The sleep tech must have left out a 0 after the 8 or 9. If he is getting a Swift...

Chrisp, the reason Praxair could not return your prescrption is due to government regualtions called HIPAA. I do not care for Praxair because they are a full service DME company. People should stick to cpap experts when it comes to treatment. Try Health Mangement Services. CPAP experts since 1989!!

Good work Janelle. Glad to see you kept going!!

Hopeful. This is what DME's go through. Insurance companies can always find a way not to pay. This is why DME's employ an insurance verifier and a billing/collections specialist. These people are not cheap. If DME's could operate like the internet business's (cash and carry) their prices would be mu...

DCTom, I do not use a mask, but I have fit over 1000 patients who do. I can tell you the success of the Oracle is minimal. The only way I recommend you try the Oracle is if you cannot move air through your nose. The Vista can work, but there is a lot of adjustments to make to the headgear and mask s...

Rock and Roll, I am located in Houston. Our company has several locations throughout the States.

DME is now a registered user of cpaptalk.com. I feel I needed to represent the NOT evil DME company. I could not believe boomers comments about a DME. He actually never even dealt with one and calls them evil. My job is to infuelence the other side to DME. It can be a postive experience especially f...
