A BiPAP machine which is also referred to as BiLevel or VPAP, delivers two separate and distinct pressures; that being a higher pressure when the patient inhales and a lower pressure when they exhale. The machine alternates between the two set pressures which are set per the doctor’s order or prescription. A prescription for a CPAP machine may not be used to purchase a BiPAP machine.
