Hey Sally, I appreciate your comment. I just posted a new discussion comparing DME vs wholesale online CPAP. I found the exact machine I was prescribed online for about 1/4 of the cost through the DME. I really don't understand that. Can you shed some light on the subject? I did ask the lady I spoke to that does billing and she didn't know why their machines cost so much.

I had surgery in January of this year and since then have paid ALL of my out of pocket expenses ($2000 is our out of pocket cap) so I shouldn't have to pay ANY out of pocket until 2011.
