CPAP machines are designed to assist with breathing during sleep, potentially helping to improve sleep quality for those with sleep apnoea. Our range of CPAP machines, which can support individuals managing sleep apnoea, includes ResMed and Phillips, providing options for various needs and preferences.
What does a CPAP machine do?
A CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine delivers a steady stream of air through a mask worn during sleep.
This airflow aims to keep the airway open, which may help individuals with sleep apnoea breathe more easily throughout the night.
Sleep apnoea machines come in different types, including fixed pressure CPAP, BiPAP (Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure), and APAP (Automatic Positive Airway Pressure) devices.
Can anyone purchase a CPAP machine?
You do need a diagnosis of sleep apnoea before you can purchase any CPAP products. You can get tested for sleep apnoea in the comfort of your own home by undergoing a Sleep Apnoea Test conducted by Blooms The Chemist.
What are the different types of CPAP machines available?
There are several types of CPAP machines available:
-
Fixed pressure CPAP machines: These deliver a constant air pressure throughout the night.
-
BiPAP machines: These provide two levels of air pressure - one for inhalation and a lower pressure for exhalation.
-
APAP machines: These automatically adjust air pressure based on your breathing patterns throughout the night.
Each type has its own features and potential benefits, and the choice often depends on individual needs and preferences.
Does Medicare cover CPAP machines?
You may be eligible to have your CPAP machine covered by Medicare.
However, it’s recommended you speak to your doctor to check if you are eligible, as Medicare funding of CPAP equipment differs between states and each state has different eligibility requirements
Do I always have to use a CPAP mask that is the same brand as my CPAP machine?
No. CPAP masks and CPAP accessories are universal connections across all brands.
The only exception to this is the ResMed AirMini travel device which has a specific connection for ResMed AirMini masks.
Can I make a claim with my private healthcare provider if I purchase my CPAP machine from Blooms The Chemist?
Yes, we provide a tax invoice for rebates, provided your health fund and individual policy are covered for Sleep Apnoea treatment.
