Or you could buy a reconditioned one.

The Apple Watch is great for checking things but a 24 hour monitor it is not. It will not capture all AF automatically and can miss quite a lot of it in my experience. Same with other watches and wearables.

See “Things you should know” at the bottom on this link support.apple.com/en-us/120276

Buy a Kardia, an awful lot cheaper and just timetable to use it several times a day.

Seems like doctor would provide a holter monitor. Zio patch is also highly rated. Both could be replaced to meet the 90 day requirement.

If you do have to purchase, check the Wellue site. They have a chest monitor that will provide continuous monitoring like a holter monitor or Zio patch. Cost is less that a standard Apple watch. However, the SE Apple Watch is only about $189.

(* have not been to Wellue site in awhile, they did have)
