The last day to register an affected CPAP / BiPAP device in the US and Canada is 11:59pm EST, December 31, 2024. Patients who have not registered an affected device should do so before the registration end date.

End of registration does not impact those who have registered but are still waiting for a replacement device.

 

If you or your patients have registered an affected device and are still waiting for a replacement, it is likely because they may need to take specific action in the Patient Portal to receive their replacement.
