I am a commercial truck driver located in Southern California. Every year my company requires me to get a CPAP compliance report downloaded and printed out for my DOT physical exam. I used to go to a place nearby where I live, but they no longer offer the service. How do I go about in having you do t for me? Thank you.
Dale Pratt
I have an older model ResMed S9 CPAP machine and need my sim card read for DOT compliance... Do you read those cards?
Advans CPAP Staff
Hello, Please give us a call at 714-897-2727 during normal business hours so a time can be set up for you to come by. It would be best for you to bring in your machine just in case the memory card / chip in it is bad. We will then download and generate a compliance report for your DOT physical. The process takes about 15 minutes for a nominal fee.
Wade Covington
I lost the memory card on my machine. Was there a way you can access the data for a compliance report without it? Or can I just purchase any standard SD card from the electronics store?
Advans CPAP Staff
Some of the newer CPAP machines do not need a memory card to retrieve data as they can transmit information remotely via wifi. All of them will usually have some type of SD card or chip that will store compliance data. Any SD card should work. We typically recommend getting one with about 15 GIG storage.

I am in Dunedin, Florida and I need to get my CPAP card and compliance report printed. Do you have a location near me? I am close to Clearwater.
Advans CPAP Staff
We do not have a location in your area. Depending on which machine you have, we may be able to handle it via email. Which make and model did you have?
Javier

Advans CPAP Staff
What is the make and model of your CPAP machine? We will need this information to determine if we can generate a report for you. You can call us at 714-897-2727 for a quicker response. Thank you.
Jeffrey Adkins
Is there a way to make a fake compliance report ? Cus had a CPAP but didn’t use it like was suppose to and I’ve went and did a physical but it’s being held till I get a report stating that I had used to for the amount of time and percentage
Mateo
Hey I having same issue any luck around this ?
Advans CPAP Staff
We do not advise on or provide false documentation. It is always in your best interest to use CPAP even if it was temporarily for a week straight in order to properly document usage to pass the DOT physical. They can give you an extension for a few weeks so you can use the CPAP. We may be able to print out a report for you.
Mauricio Lopez
I came in your office the other day and had you download and printout a cpap compliance report for my DOT physical on Dreamstation CPAP machine. I requested the report be for 30 days worth of data. My doctor now says they like to get 1 years worth compliance. Can you do that for me?
Advans CPAP Staff
Yes, of course. Please do call or email us before coming to make sure we are available. Thank you.
Jim cole
I need to get my compliance report done anything in Dallas Tx area. And if not how can I get it done via email
Advans CPAP Staff
You can either view the video we posted on this page on how to email us the files or call us and we can walk you through it.
Kristy Fant
I know it’s not recommend but are you able to generate a 60 day report that is needed for an upcoming surgery? My machines card is blank and they won’t move forward with out this report and I’m desperate
Advans CPAP Staff
What machine did you have? You want to try a new SD card as your old one may be corrupt. We can get the data then.
Robert J Recher
I can get my print out down the road. What I need help with is that I use my cpap every day and was at 88% compliance and suddenly it has dropped to 63%. I didn't use it for 2 days because I was moving but the report shows I missed 9 days. How did that happen. I've now been using my machine every night like I am supposed to but the compliance percentage is still at 63%. My medical card now runs out in 2 days and the stupid machine is gonna cause me to lose my job. I've contacted the manufacturer and the company it was purchased from and they couldn't tell me crap....HELP PLEASE!!!
Advans CPAP Staff
There is no reason for the numbers to drop that low for only two days of not using the machine. It is possible, the recent report has a much less time frame than compared to the time frame of the report that resulted in 88% numbers. For example, the lower number report could be for only 2 weeks of use, vs a report that is 6 months of usages. If that was the case, the number will be very off.
Joeseph
Hello, I bought an intellipap 2 used 2yrs ago and use it consistently. However it did not have an sd card. I bought one today but since I need a report for my physical, it will not show enough data. Can you guys help if I come in? Thanks
Advans CPAP Staff
Yes we can pull the data off the unit for you. Call us.
Michael

Advans CPAP Staff
No, as we are closed weekends.
Preston Bowman
I’m a commercial driver in Perth Amboy New Jersey. Can someone PLEASE help me retrieve the compliance data from my CPAP machine so I can get back to work. I have the Philips Dream station CPAP machine. This is my first time dealing with this type of situation and I’m completely in the dark!
Advans CPAP Staff
You can either mails us the memory card located on the side of your CPAP with a copy of your ID and we can generate a report for you. You can also view the entire video above and do it electronically.
Sherman Jones
How long will it take to get a report? I can send data this evening 4-6-20.
Advans CPAP Staff
We can have it ready in 1 day.
Victor
Do you have in Locations in San Antonio Texas. I need a compliance letter by june.
Advans CPAP Staff
No we do not.
Eugene Atherton
I have an older model CPAP machine but need a report for my Texas CDL DOT medical card. The model I have is REMstar Plus ( REMPlus w/C-Flex core pkg). Model# 1009871 . How do I locate the memory card from this device?
BB
Did you ever get your download? I’m located in Tulsa Ok and I still have the connections and software to do these. It seems respironics makes machines to take a licking and keep on ticking. I have a handful of patients that still use it. Until I’ve supplied all of them with new machines, I will keep the ability to download as an option.
Advans CPAP Staff
Your model is a unit we do can no longer produce reports for due to the age unfortunately.
TJ
Im using mom's CPAP, mine broke, insurance wants report, will it have mom's name or mine on report.
Advans CPAP Staff
Your name can be on the report if you have us generate it for you.
Gregory Garvin
I was not able to use my machine for a few days cause of a open nerve in my mouth and my 3 month read out is 65.6 is 2 weeks enough to get it back over 70%
Advans CPAP Staff
Until you are able to close your mouth or use a full face mask, the data will not be correct from air leaks.
John
I’m wondering... I got a new job and they do not monitor my cpap machine .. so the only one asking for reports is the dot dr. When I get my physical and he only asked for the last 3 months. So I only have to wear it the last 3 months of the year to get my med card ?????
Advans CPAP Staff
Correct. Ideally, you should be wearing your CPAP every night so you do not fall asleep at the wheel.
Larry Schrock
How much do you charge to print a 90 day report?
Advans CPAP Staff
Price increased to 50.00 on 7-01-22.
Advans CPAP Staff
25.00 is the fee
scott
So I got a new cpap machine last year and they didn't put a SD card in it and they didn't change serial number for report i asked my dr to send me a recent report for dot physical and the date on it is 7/20/19 which is to old he said thats the last report he has so now what i have no info of me using it and dot dr won't budge it expires tonight
Advans CPAP Staff
You can provide the Dr the serial number from your new machine and see if he can generate a report for you. If not, we may be able to help.
Shawn
I have an air sense 10. I work night shift so I come home and sleep around 7 am. I would until noon and the machine says I have slept 5 hrs, meeting the required minimum 4 hrs. If I sleep past 12, let’s say until 1 pm, the time shows that I only slept for one hour thus looking like I I had only used my clap for an hour and 5 or 6. Why is that?
Advans CPAP Staff
Data collection issues would be best answered by contacting ResMed directly.
Fred Vanderheiden
Can I just send you the sd card and you download and send it back with report
Advans CPAP Staff
Price increased to 50.00 on 7-01-22.
Advans CPAP Staff
Yes, you can. Please include a copy of your ID along with your contact information and a note stating how many months of data was needed on the report. We will email you with a payment link once it is ready. The fee is 25.00 and we can normally have it ready in one business day.
Dale Pratt
I have a ResMed S9 CPAP machine. Can you read the sim card for this machine?
Advans CPAP Staff
Yes, we can.
Greg Durbin
I provided a compliance report and passed my dot physical. Now my employer wants a copy of my compliance report. Can they legally ask for this?
Advans CPAP Staff
We do not provide legal advice. With that noted, we don't see why they would need a copy since you did pass your DOT Physical. If it is their policy, you do not have much choice unless you are willing to seek legal council to dispute it.
Traci McAlexander
We have a ResMed Tango C-Series machine and need a compliance report but no one can help. Are you able to? There is no SD card. Thank you.
Advans CPAP Staff
We do not work on those machines.
Jason kenyon
Was wanting to know if you can read my card . I have a remstar plus m series machine. Everyone I talk to says that my machine is out date and their software will not work on it. The card looks like a debit/ATM card with the chip on it
Advans CPAP Staff
We cannot read your card.
Chris
Can you generate a compliance report for DOT exams from a Fisher & Paykal Icon?
Advans CPAP Staff
No, as we only work on ResMed, Philips Respironics and Devilbiss units.
Shelton

Advans CPAP Staff
1 day on average.
Rikki Painter
My husband has a ResMed S8 Series II LCD cpap machine with no SIM card. Is there a way to get it read for a compliance report.
Advans CPAP Staff
We would need the unit in person to download the data with a direct connection.
Mr. Daniel Pimental
We provide this CPAP compliance report for all drivers who require it to pass their DOT physical. This service is available in our office location Garden Grove, CA. If you are not local, you have the option of emailing us the data off. This article is very helpful and grateful. Thank you for sharing awesome article.

Stan
Hello, I have a Philips Dreamstation CPAP. I would need to get the 3 most current months of data from my machine for a job. When I pulled out the SD card out, the last file folder was from March 2021. I opened the folder and it showed me data recorded until the beginning of April 2021. I inserted a new SD card into the machine to capture any data, but I didn’t pull it out in fear of wiping out any data that it captured. My question is if I pull the card out, will the machine loose any memory that was transferred to the SD card? How do I save the data stored on the SD card? What will happen if I reinsert the card into the CPAP machine again? Will all the existing data be wiped out too? Unfortunately I just learned recently that I could document my data using the DreamMapper app. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Advans CPAP Staff
All data is stored in the CPAP and normally cannot be lost. It is only overwritten by new data. The card is just used to transfer data onto the computer for generating reports.
Peter Braxton
I need a compliance report from my Resmed Cpap machine. What do I need to do? It is an Airsense 10
Advans CPAP Staff
^ Watch the video above on "How to send your ResMed CPAP Compliance Data".
Blake Litton
If I have a compliance report generated to show the DOT doctor, is there away you can prepare the report with only last 30 days of data and not longer than that?
Advans CPAP Staff
Yes, we can do that for you.
Randall Myers
I tried using the resmed SM card in the philips respironics machine but don't know if that sufficed in getting the data moved over to the SM Card, Please advise if there is something i can do rather than move machines
Advans CPAP Staff
We cannot combine data from two machines onto one report. You can advise your doctor you have 2 machines and have them do the calculations to see if you are compliant once we generate two reports.
Randall Myers
I need to show one report to show continuous use for a period of 4 months. Is there a way to do so without moving a machine when i stay at another home?
Advans CPAP Staff
A report will need to be made for each machine. Combining the data from both machines into one card will not work. The easiest way is to have a card for each machine and then send us the files from each card. All data is stored on the each machine and the card is just a method to pull the data off the device. You can clear off all the old data from the cards and put it back into the machines. It will then download all the stored information again on the card. Do this for each machine and send us the files.
Michael Martinez
I have a Resmart machine need compliance form no Sd card but usually use Icode.Any location around Houston area.
Advans CPAP Staff
We do not provide cpap compliance reports for that model. Try contacting the manufacturer directly for assistance.
Mark
I have an AS11 is there a reason it is not in your list of eligible cpap machines for reporting
Advans CPAP Staff
The ResMed Airsense 11 is a machine we can download CPAP reports. It is not listed as one we do not do. We can help with your device.
Leo Rael

Bernard Dugo
I have a question, but first I will give you my sleep apnea history. Back in 2013 I did a home sleep study which said I have sleep apnea. I got a cpap machine but never could get used to it. This year I decided to get my CDL, the dot examiner said to do another sleep study, I did, and it said I have sleep apnea. I told the dot examiner, and he said that I need a sleep compliance report and to get set up with a sleep specialist. I got set up with a sleep specialist and asked if they could do a sleep compliance report for me and I told them I had done a home sleep study. The specialist said I needed to do one of their overnight sleep studies because the home study is not accurate enough and that the DOT willl not except a home sleep study, so I did their sleep study. I got the sleep study report, and it said i have two reasons I have sleep apnea. One is obstructive sleep and the other is central sleep apnea and I will need to undergo another night of sleep study. I already bought another cpap machine a Resvent Ibreeze 20A. I have been using it for a little over two weeks now. What more can this sleep center I went to do for me other than doing the 30-day compliance report. All I need is the compliance report to get pass my medical exam. Please can you give me an answer I am confused and feel like I am being taken to the cleaners.
Advans CPAP Staff
Ultimately, ask whoever you purchased the current machine from if they can show you how to pull a compliance report from the device or if they can do it for you since they sold it to you. They should be able to if they are competent with the products they sell. We do not work with that brand unfortunately. Normally with an overnight sleep study, if you show enough apnea events during the first half, they would have you try CPAP on the second half of the night to see how well you do on it. After that, they will prescribe a cpap machine. Since they want to bring you back a second time, the apnea could have showed up later on during the first test, but there was not enough time to have you use the CPAP.

I need a DOT compliance report. I have an older Respironics M series with an encorepro smart card. Can you retrieve a compliance report from this card?
Advans CPAP Staff
Those older units with the smart cards can no longer be read unfortunately. We can read machines with SD memory cards.

Craig Beller
Iam a truck driver I would like to leave one machine home and one in my truck. Can I get the readings from both machines to be compliant with dot physical?
Advans CPAP Staff
You would want to print reports off both machines and to show them that you have two devices. Data cannot be combined into one report.
Greg Maney
I had an issue with compressing SD card. I was told to format it and reinsert into my CPAP machine to download data, however I don't think it all downloaded to the SD card.
Advans CPAP Staff
Send us an email with your card details and we will take a look at it.
Roberta Ford
Thank you again for helping me figure out how to get the data off my husband's SD card so I could send via this format rather than us drive 2+ hours to get to you. So, so appreciated!!! Anyways, please generate a compliance report for one year's worth of data and email back to me at this email address. If at all possible, please send the report to us by end of business today as he's in need of it for his appointment tomorrow.

Advans CPAP Staff
Yes, it was generated today for you. Please check your email.
Ed
Are there any adjustments or improvements I can make to my CPAP therapy to ensure better compliance and effectiveness while on the road?
Advans CPAP Staff
Make sure you keep the machine on for at least 4 hours a night and for 21 out of 30 night to be in 70% compliance.
Mary L.
Is there any pattern or trend in my CPAP usage that I should be aware of, such as insufficient usage during specific times or days?
Advans CPAP Staff
If you show less than 70% compliance on your cpap report, most will be failed do to lack of use.
Jose Mendoza
What should I do if I'm having difficulties with CPAP compliance?
Advans CPAP Staff
Narrow down what the major reasons for lack of compliance. Maybe poor mask quality, incorrect air pressures or just low tolerance.
Sowngri
You have made some really good points there. I checked on the net for additional information about the issue and found most people will go along with your views.
Advans CPAP Staff
