How can I get a CPAP prescription?Updated 21 days ago

Prescriptions for CPAP, APAP, and BiPAP machines will require a sleep study to be completed first. Cpap.com offers home sleep studies within the United States, an ideal option to secure a prescription and get tested within the comfort of your own home.  

If you would like to get your prescription from your prescribing doctor, you can give your doctor's office our Standard Prescription Form here.

Your prescription can be written on a standard prescription pad which includes the physician's contact information, your name, and is signed by the care provider including a statement about the equipment needed. For example CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP.

If you are purchasing a machine, ideally the prescription will include the pressure setting. If it is not included on the Rx, the pressure setting may be provided by you. If ordering an EPAP therapy device like the Bongo, you can ask your doctor to provide an EPAP prescription or use our EPAP Prescription Form. The doctor will also need to write a special prescription for Nightbalance Lunoa purchases, and the prescription must state the Nightbalance as the prescribed treatment.

The prescription can be written by any of the following care providers:
- Medical Doctor
- Doctor of Osteopathy
- Psychiatrist (MD Only)
- Physicians Assistant
- Nurse Practitioners
- Dentist
- Naturopathic Physicians

We will not accept prescriptions written by the following (unless they are a licensed MD or DO):
- Chiropractor
- Podiatrist
- Optometrist
- Psychologist
