... I was so mad every time Motorola screwed the pooch in this era.
I was a first-gen Moto X user... on Verizon. I didn't get the Lolipop update forever and a day. I was a first-gen Moto Hint owner. We didn't get the wake word update, we got told to buy the Hint 2. And then finally, I was a first-gen Moto 360 owner. We didn't even get Wear OS updates at all. Not WearOS 2, not even WearOS 1.6. Every single first-gen product got immediately dropped for second-gen shit, and we got abandoned.

Insurance companies are tired of paying thousands of dollars in machines and supplies that don't go used, so they instead 'rent' the machines from medical equipment suppliers, and use the machine's usage data to determine that you are still using it (and thus continue to pay for treatment). Typically after a year or so of usage they get 'paid for' but there's still ongoing compliance monitoring to get insurance to pay for supplies.
The sleep lab and sleep doctors can also remotely review the usage and make adjustments as needed. One example is using the humidity sensors in ResMed units to adjust the humidification settings remotely. I was with a doctor that showed usage logs together and noted the bedroom was severely dry and thus we needed to adjust the humidifier to run hotter to compensate.
