ALL CPAPs have the same insurance code......E0601.


Den.
Spank you, Den.
My job went to part time in August so I've lost my insurance. I will be paying out-of-pocket.

Are there different levels of ResMed "For Her"?

It seems like my current AirSense has limited options. Bummer.
So the dealer did order the For Her for me. Should I be careful to avoid the plain jane model? Or does it come in just one model?

Can you please show me where I can find instructions to do this?
I do not prefer the warmed air, either.

So is the ResMed "For Her" different on the inside?

So it looks like my ResMed is the the regular old Autoset. I called ResMed and asked if the "For Her" is made for the female anatomy or if it is just differently colored. He said that the For Her is made for the female anatomy, and also that females are more prone to R.E.R.A. (Respiratory Effort Rel...

Chin straps are big. :0(

My current mask leaks more than I'd like. I recently got the RemZzzs and they help some. Maybe a nasal mask would be good for me. I am overwhelmed by the options, and I know I'm in good company. My mouth falls open and so I guess a chin strap it is. I had not shopped around for chin straps until tod...

About all I know is I am running a 64bit version on Windows. Other than that, how do I know which SleepyHead download to use?

Re: Leave machine on after you get up??

"MYAIR" will give you limited information on how well your treatment is doing. If you want to see greater detail, download Sleepyhead software. I use MYAIR for a quick check, but use Sleepyhead to get detailed information on how my treatment is going. Which download should I install? Or do need to ...

Re: Leave machine on after you get up??

Am truly sorry for such a lame question. And yes, I sort of thought that's what they meant. Why the heck don't they just say, 'Keep unit plugged in.' for Pete's sake.
Thank you.

Re: Full-face mask and wrinkles?

Poorly fitting masks suck !! If you've only had yours for a few days, you might be able to return it to your DME supplier and get a different model of mask in exchange or, a larger size in that model. Good luck ! Fitting masks sucks alot, for sure. Thank you for all your good replies, much apprecia...
