Positional therapy (look up the shark fin shirt) to keep you off your back. Also just inclining the head of your bed can also be effective.
Inspire which you've probably seen commercials for, is a hypoglossal nerve stimulator in which they implant the stimulator and battery into your chest, and a titration is done (I used to do these), and the voltage is adjusted. Most people couldn't tolerate the voltage required to control their sleep apnea. I still love this innovative alternative however.
UPPP surgery which is the highly invasive surgery where parts of your upper airway are surgically removed to expand the airway. I've also done sleep studies on patients who've gotten this and still had sleep apnea, most still requiring pap therapy.
CPAP is the golden standard in effectively treating sleep apnea, but these alternatives should definitely be considered if pap therapy is not feasible for you.
For insurance to approve this, I had to have both a prescription from my doctor, as well as a valid sleep study for the DME that my doctor's office worked with. The DME didn't want to accept the sleep study I had done six years prior because they wanted it done through a specific sleep program in town. The cost to do the study was going to be $1400 out of pocket. On top of this, I would have to pay the deductible to get a unit, and then would have to self-report data from the SD card to verify compliance.
Buying the machine outright only required a prescription. CPAP.com didn't care about my sleep study information. CPAP.com requested the prescription from my doctor, who then signed and faxed it over, and it was ordered in less than four days. Prior to this, I probably spent eight weeks going back and forth with my insurance. The machine is mine outright and I don't have to self report anything to insurance.
The only benefit I can think of for going through insurance would be to get supplies for "free" (after you meet deductible of course) but this ends once your new calendar year starts and the supplies can be stupid expensive. I now just buy masks, filers, hose, etc. either off Amazon or eBay out of pocket and it's still cheaper than meeting deductible each year.
This model is technically an "old" model since the Airsense 11 came out, but the Airsense 10 was brought back during COVID due to chip shortages. That's why this version is the "card to cloud" edition because the LTE modem had to be removed due to the shortage. There is no real benefit of the LTE card other than your data being available on the ResMed app, and it allows your compliance data to be automatically submitted.
Just FYI, the air pumps start going out around 20k hours on these and you'll get a warning on the display indicating this. 20k hours is around 6-7 years at eight hours of sleep per night, so I'd be very cautious buying used ones off Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, etc. The pump alone costs more than $200 and aftermarket ones are hit and miss. For $200, I'd almost consider buying another and keeping it in the box for 3-4 years down the road when my current one dies.
As far as analyzing sleep data, you should look into a software called Oscar [sleepfiles.com]. You can plug the SD card with your sleep information on it into your PC and it will show you ALL the info your healthcare provider will see. This was SUPER helpful for me to fix my leak rate on my old mask, and ultimately led me to getting a different mask that worked the best for me. This software will also help you configure your machine for YOU, not for whatever the DME thinks you need.

To transmit your usage data. Data is saved to the machine and can be transferred by plugging in a SD card. This also doesn't come with a heated hose so be careful not to adjust humidity levels to high as rainout is possible. Also depending on which mask style, be prepared to spend another $100-$300 on that, unless they're on sale too.
Prescriptions are valid for one year since you were seen last.
Feel free to ask any questions, I'd be happy to assist.
Bought a few for backup/inlaws house.
This machine's code has an error in it. Going forward, the BF23 code for the Black Friday discount code is no longer valid for the airsense 10 card-to-cloud machine. The machine was originally listed at $499, but is now only $399 after a $100 discount. The mistake has been fixed. Future orders will not be discounted to the same cost, and purchases that have already been placed will not have additional products thrown into it at this discounted rate.
We regret any confusion and inconvenience caused.
Update - they've charged my card, but won't send me CPAP until I'll send them RX. This is less optimal, but still fine with me - I'll just need to remember to send them RX or cancel the order
Confirmed this was a pricing error, so get that script sent over and run with this steal. They are honoring all orders that were placed before it was caught.
All insurance plans are not the same. If you have a NO deductible plan, it's all more likely to be covered. If you have a deductible, the machine and supplies will very likely be subject to your deductible.

If you're replacing your hose and mask every 30-60 days, your equipment provider must love you! Do you also get your car's oil changed every 500 miles?
Your hose can begin growing bacteria from moisture in the air, in as little as 14 days of use. It is 100% recommended to change them every 30 to 60 days. It is recommended by the National sleep foundation as well as every sleep specialist I ever saw. My insurance covers it and I didn't even ask for the shipments, but as soon as I got my Bipap machine, they started sending new hose and filters once a month. I also switch out my head strap about every 90 days, because it gets stretched out over time and won't stay as tight. My masks that covers my face, has replaceable inserts that are also changed every 30-60 days, as they grow bacteria as well.
They do not recommend using cleaning products on your mask, as they have rubber pieces and a lot of cpap cleaning solutions, have chemicals that will cause the rubber on the outer mask to deteoriate. So they recommend just washing your mask out with warm water and soap, which I do about twice a week.
If you use a water humidifier like a lot of cpap people do, attached to your machine, it can cause bacteria to grow much faster. However in the winter months, the humidifier saves me from waking up with dry cracked lips or having nasal problems from the air being constantly pumped into you.
My health is important to me, so I take care of it. You may feel differently. As far as my oil goes, on my F250, I change it every 3000 miles. On my wife's Honda odyssey, it uses synthetic, so it gets changed about every 10,000 miles. On my diesel Ram 2500 that we just use for pulling the RV in boat, it gets changed every 10,000 as well. Does that answer your question? Perhaps you should work on helping the community out and posting more deals, than trolling people.

The manufacturer (who is incentivized to get you to replace parts more often) recommends only replacing your hose every 12 months.

You do you Brian, thanks for the response!
You're welcome, Tommy. Have a great day!
It's Evan, but you have a great day too!
No way can a common person afford to replace the supplies at the recommended intervals.
