UC Health seems to disagree and says anything south of an SpO2 of 85% is put on a ventilator.
My oximeter instructions say to go to ER for anything less than 95%. Mine sometimes reaches 96, usually 94 or 95.
I asked my fam doc last week if the hospital would put me on a vent if I wanted it or not? He said no. I asked what if I was unconscious? He said I would have to fill out a do not resuscitate form, in advance, and then they wouldn't.
I'd rather die at home then give the hospital a chance to kill me for the 50K biden will give them.

Then you asked the wrong question.
Next time you see him, ask if the hospital would let your family transport you home if you were unconscious 2° to hypoxia. Meanwhile, consider updating your living will and advance directives.
