All it needs is a signature, which can apparently even be provided by the physician (huisarts). Every dutch health insurance currently refunds it. Apparently it is installed at home, for free. Haven't tried it yet. Still waiting for the neurologist ...

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

There's another side to this, too, and this is by no means a recommendation to others - just something that's worked well for me.
Using the plain old disposable plastic mask with the two little holes in it, pressure set at around 2lbs, put finger and thumb over the little holes and inhale slowly through your nose. Remove finger and thumb and exhale then repeat and repeat and repeat.
A caring doctor told me once that the body can absorb only so much O2 at a time so turning up the pressure was simply a waste of money. I also found that doing it this way had a distinctly calming effect as I had to think about something other than you-know-what. (You can actually feel it crawling up the old schnoz, it's cool like gold.)
Never ever to detract from tried and proven methods as advocated here in beautiful downtown ch.com, just to add another slant in that it might help someone else.
