Where Does the Modem Upload Data Go Dreamstation Cpap

So I got a Dreamstation today from my DME and to my surprise it has the modem! According to them information technology is a cellular modem so no WiFi needed, who pays the nib?
The affair is, I am not really sure how good is it for me or what difference it makes, since apparently the only benefit of having the modem is if you demand shut follow up therapy by the physician or the DME in order to sell yous more supplies

The DME said I can monitor my data from the deject only I did non have fourth dimension to login however and I was expecting the Bluetooth model to apply with my android phone.

I am trying to research some info about this modem thing but and so far I constitute cipher.
So if anybody here has any experience with the Dreamstation plus modem, please pitch in!

Thanks!!

The Dreamstation comes with Bluetooth and a Cellular Modem.

The software y'all utilize to read the limited data is called Dreammapper.
https://www.mysleepmapper.com/Account/LogOn

Yous need to log in and setup your account to use it.

In that location is likewise an iPhone and Android app which will look at the aforementioned limited information. I assume it gets it from the same Internet source every bit the online site.

I have the Dreamstation, and cannot monitor information from the cloud -- only via Bluetooth and DreamMapper. The cellular modem is simply used past the DME to monitor usage, to my understanding.

Even if you don't utilise Bluetooth one time a twenty-four hours the Dreamstation will transmit the information via the modem so yous tin can run into it on DreamMapper. Y'all tin can fifty-fifty gear up the time of this transmission by forcing the transmission.

I prepare an account on my computer on the sleepmapper web site online. And so I synced an app on my iPhone to my DreamStation to get my information by wireless on an iPhone app. The DreamStation digital display and the app give slightly different information. If I remember correctly as I am not dwelling, the DreamStation display shows mask fit%, full AHI, therapy usage time and 90% force per unit area charge per unit. This is only in the patient information way. The app gives mask fit%, therapy usage fourth dimension, number of disconnects and AHI. However, the app shows the AHI details of numbers of articulate apneas, obstructive apneas and hyponeas. Not much detail merely all the data that I presume the company thinks the patient needs or wants.

I was told past the DME that the cellular feature was strictly for the insurance visitor to monitor compliance. The Bluetooth feature is used for data transmission to the Dreammapper plan which I run on a tablet. I'k a new CPAP user and this is what I empathise. I was also told that I volition take the SD menu to the slumber medico for my 3 month eval.

well, since you lot're new, here's a word of advice...

don't trust anything your DME tells y'all, VERIFY information technology before you believe it.

or, every bit the all-time communication one of the other forum members gives out "if it'southward midnight and your DME says it'south nighttime outside, become bank check for yourself".

in other words, what your DME told y'all is *wrong*, the dreamstations transmit total data which is available to doctors and DMEs that subscribe to respironics service.

or, at least, that's what a doctor told me when I asked what he could see of the transmitted data.

The reason modems are needed is not to sell yous supplies, merely to have the DME and or physician monitor your usage for compliance purposes and most importantly it gives the physician access to data of not just the usage but the AHI and mask leaks, central apneas, pressure setting if somebody has those at the tip of their hands this believe it or not helps you lot given that the doctor tin can notice a that you lot have leaks or that pressure you are assail is not adequate because it shows some residuum apneas and he or his team can change pressures,recommend a chinstrap, etc, to achieve a better result in treatment , without you having to go personally to the dame company and have it change, or take to go to the physician'southward office.

Granted if y'all are Medicare you will have to (past Medicare rules not the doctors believe when you are Medicare patient and accept to once a yr to run into the doctor the doctor is loosing money on that visit) see the doctor .
More about this and why : Large nationwide DME companies like those that used to annunciate in tv volition sent supplies similar clockwork fifty-fifty if patient was not using the cpap anymore ( at the time orders from the doctors were not needed and one time y'all were in cpap by peradventure a local DME ,this nationwide companies had a style to find out and they either solicited or advertise it in tv and that was a serial waste of our healthcare dollars.
That is why Medicare once again not the doctors requires that you see your doctor once a year so the doctor verify that you are using the machine by asking yous and more accurately to see the download of the usage, which is another pace if there is the cpap does not have modem that takes time from the staff at the doctors office trying to get y'all to get to the DME and the DME faxed the download , and THAT IS WHY A MODEM SAVES Time FOR BOTH THE PATIENT SND MEDICAL STAFF AND IS MORE ACCURATE WAY TO MONITOR YOUE USAGE AND Make CHANGES As NEEDED!

When patients understand ameliorate their handling / insurance requirements ameliorate that they sympathize they prison cell phone ownership or car buying experience than is when misunstandings nearly this will help to have a ameliorate outcome in patients care.

This will only happen if your DME is still monitoring you for compliance. Mine isn't so my current values won't show online unless I use the Bluetooth transfer on my phone which in turns uploads the information.

I would but get Sleepyhead, it shows much more info.
Neither DME or Sleep Dr. monitor my machine over the cellular that I am enlightened of. The DME leaves information technology to the Dr. to do that and the Dr. e'er downloads my data from the SD carte du jour. When my Sleep Dr. changes my prescrip. settings my DME makes the changes via Cellular. Last time my Prescrip. changed the DME fabricated the wrong changes is how I know. I would advise you to get a Clinician's manual if you haven't already in case the screw up like mine did. I totally do non trust my DME.
