RE: Buying CPAP which not mention in Prescription.
You did just great. The Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset is considered the best auto CPAP available and is qualified for insurance under HCPCS code E0601. Based on your post you will also need a mask. I'll suggest the Resmed Airfit P10 nasal pillows mask which is also available from Supplier #1.

Please review Apnea Board Rules which prohibit links to DME suppliers like Supplier #1. Please read your PMs. You have received multiple warnings for DME links.

Hi Ketanerp -

The experts (I am not one) will appreciate your keeping all you issues in ONE thread. That way they don't have to waste time looking through multiple threads to get the full picture.

Agree with the above, best choice.
Come back after you have installed OSCAR and used your machine overnight. The 4-20 settings are fine to start but are rarely optimal.
