Does RESMED make a "pillow" CPAP MASK with a chin strap? 1

The pillow version works good for me but I have to use a chin strap,,which SLIPS OFF during the night,,as the chin strap is seperate. If it had a built in chin strap it would be fine. The full face mask is a NIGHTMARE for me.

I have never seen a built on chin strap. Call the home care company that provides your supplies. They will be thrilled to serve you. If not call another one. CPap supplies can be changed out every three months and insurance will pay for it. Masks every 6 months.
