Jesse I think you

 made an excellent point about the Dr.

Make sure when you ask for a copy of the sleep study, that you want the RAW data as well as the summarized report. 

Maybe it would help you to return your machine if you brought along a copy of the article?  Then you can go elsewhere for a new one.

Yes, IMO, if it were me, I'd do that. Both on specify RAW data AND the bring the article and machine in.

Unfortunately, the real patients suffer. Truthfully, they are robbing from everyone. Jail time is appropriate. And its people like this who corrupt the system and make it tough on everyone, even though i think insurance can be just as criminal. And government.

I think it is one of the reasons for the exploding cost of insurance, as well as equipment and supplies.

You are so lucky in being able to take your money and business elsewhere, an option not really available to us in the UK.

RE: Good vs. Bad DME's
Phill it is not a readily available option. It is one that I will have to fight for ( the doctor, insurance and DME. If I don't succeed then I will put my money where my mouth is and buy the needed equipment and supplies. I can not in good conscience stay at this DME since I disapprove of their actions and also feel their actions show a total disregard for the customer.
I really feel for their customers who are not proactive in their treatment.
