Medicare and CPAP Accessories - oneeyeopen - 06-02-2023
I'm new to Medicare and was wondering if there is an online provider that accepts Medicare for CPAP accessories (Masks, etc...). I typically just ordered accessories from [DME Link Removed] Supplier #1 but it doesn't look like they accept Medicare. I did contact one provider that appeared on the Medicare.org site but they did not provide accessories.
Thanks,

Most DME offices will ship supplies to you once you have made personal contact with them. A DME has to register with Medicare since it is Medicare that will be paying most of the bill. You or a secondary insurance you might have will be responsible for the 20% left.

Have you tried Lincare or Rotech?

My wife and I are under the Adapt Health umbrella and are on Medicare. We were both with other companies that they eventually bought (Timbro and Pacific Pulmonary). Have had good experiences with them although when it comes to reordering supplies, they may get a little aggressive (multiple calls when you are about ready to order).

I use a local company my prescribing Dr. recommended. They are Medicare approved and after the initial rental period, my machine is mine and I don't pay anything for supplies.
