If you use the machine the required amount of time, whatever that is, for the year then the machine is yours and Medicare pays for replacement consumables like filters, hoses, mask cushions and nose plugs.

    Oh, Mike, I forgot one important point. I, and I assume most Medicare patients have to see the sleep doctor once a year for a "how goes it" at which time the doctor writes a new prescription to the medical equipment provider for another year of consumables.
