Apria Healthcare, a company that distributes diabetic and respiratory supplies to patients, is cutting as many as 79 jobs in Tampa as it shifts the work overseas, according to U.S. Department of Labor documents

CPAP machines and accessories should be made OTC and then they will be sold at WalMart and Best Buy.

The same is probably true of oxygen, which is where Apria makes its profits. For their much higher costs, what value is Apria bringing to oxygen users?
