Does Medicare cover a CPAP machine?
Yes. Part B helps pay for a CPAP (a breathing machine for sleep apnea) and its masks and tubes.
What will you pay?
With Original Medicare: You pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount after the yearly Part B deductible ($283 in 2026).
With a Medicare Advantage plan: Medicare Advantage plans must cover it too, but your costs and rules can differ. Check your plan. Compare plans near you.
What are the rules?
- First you get a 12-week trial.
- To keep it, your doctor must see you and note that it helps you.
- Use a supplier that takes Medicare. Ask if they accept the Medicare price.
