Along with what everyone else is saying I think there are a few additional factors:
- The population is getting older
- The population is getting heavier
- There's a greater general awareness of sleep apnea and its seriousness
- Today's CPAP machines are smaller, quieter, and easier and more comfortable to use than those of yesteryear, so doctors know their patients will be more receptive to the treatment

Having good oxygen to breath, and being able to breathe it are really important. Some people discover they may have a deviated septum or something else so anything physiological is good to get right long before you need it.
