Now the awareness of this sleep apnea disease has brought up to wake the public.
Nobody aware of this disease till now and we are still trying our best to bring the awareness about sleep apnea up as it is a very dangerous and deadly disease.
You can google up sleep apnea and check out the affects, symptoms, etc.

Highest range CPAP machine by ResMed cost Rm8k and sleep study somewhere around Rm300.


If you need more information, I'll tell you more about it smile.gif

im using resmed right now . guys, there are a lot of doctors trying to warn how dangerous this sleep apnea but u know what, they are trying to sell you the machine . i read the star paper and i found out that all these professors or doctors are just part of one big scam trying to sell you this machine.

private insurance in malaysia will not cover your hospital sleep test and not even bear the cost of this machine for policy holders even though these sign of early heart disease. The private insurance have covered there butt well  . Do you know in US, this machine is actually provided for sleep apnea patient and even cover the cost of parts replacement?

And because this case is so new to malaysian, we are not even up there to force insurance company to rewrite the policy. Many had died in car accidents in the highway due to this problem , only now we begin to address it as dangerous.

For your information, private sectors hospital and insurance don't give a shit about us. all they wanted is money. I am lucky that the govt welfare subsidize my machine at half price. Who says the govt don't help the poor. I have to thank the people in University Hospital PJ and the staffs from Resmed who helped me to get ResMed S9.

Glad that you are one of the satisfied customer.
I agree with the US, Australia part where they provide free servicing, etc.
Unfortunately, Malaysia does not because we have to ship the stuff all the way from there which is quite costly.
and there's many ways to help patients getting this machine such as EPF, KKM, JPA, etc.

Anyhow, as you stated, many accidents happened due to sleep apnea and government is trying to come up with a plan where all public transport drivers (taxi, bus, etc) will need to go through the sleep study soon.
