How Much Does a CPAP Machine Cost? Full Price Breakdown by an RRT
How Much Does a CPAP Machine Cost?
CPAP machine pricing varies widely depending on whether you buy new, refurbished, or through insurance. As a Licensed Respiratory Therapist (RRT) and owner of MyRespCo โ a licensed DME supplier โ here's the complete, honest price breakdown with no sales spin.
New CPAP Machine Prices (Retail)
- Entry-level fixed pressure CPAP: $300โ$500
- Auto-adjusting CPAP (APAP) โ e.g. ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet: $700โ$900
- ResMed AirSense 11 AutoSet (current flagship): $850โ$1,100
- BiPAP machines โ e.g. ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto: $1,200โ$1,800
- Advanced BiPAP-ST / AVAPS: $2,500โ$4,000+
Refurbished CPAP Machine Prices
A properly refurbished CPAP machine from a licensed, RRT-certified DME supplier delivers identical clinical performance at 40โ60% below new retail. At MyRespCo:
- Refurbished ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet: Significantly below new retail โ with 1-year warranty and RRT certification
- Refurbished ResMed S9 AutoSet: Most affordable AutoSet option available
- Refurbished ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto BiPAP: 40โ60% below new BiPAP pricing
Every refurbished unit includes a 1-year mechanical warranty, new patient-contact parts, full data wipe, and Licensed Respiratory Therapist sign-off. Read the complete refurbished CPAP guide โ
Insurance Coverage
If you have insurance that covers DME, CPAP may be partially or fully covered โ typically through a 13-month rental arrangement. Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible and coinsurance. After your deductible, most plans charge 20% of the allowed amount.
MyRespCo is Medicare-enrolled. For many patients, purchasing directly at our below-retail pricing is comparable or cheaper than insurance out-of-pocket costs โ especially with high-deductible plans. Read our full cash vs insurance analysis โ
