‘CPAP Mask of Choice’ Is Now OK for Medicare Beneficiaries

Good news for Medicare beneficiaries who use CPAP therapy: starting this year, they can now order CPAP masks directly from suppliers without needing a separate prescription each time. This change is designed to simplify the process and improve access to necessary equipment for those managing sleep apnea. Previously, beneficiaries had to navigate more bureaucratic hurdles to replace or upgrade their masks, but this new policy aims to streamline the process, making it easier and more efficient. This update is expected to enhance patient satisfaction and ensure that individuals have timely access to the best possible CPAP masks for their needs.
