Better Sleep Steps

If you or a loved one are not experiencing sleep to it's fullest,
below is an outline of the steps it takes to start gaining a better night sleep.   

1

Book a Free Consultation Today

Some people need a diagnostic sleep test, and some just need practical hands-on sleep coaching. Others need our expertise to help fulfill their RPSGT staffing. No matter your sleep need, book a free consultation to get personalized advice as to what steps need to occur next in your sleep journey since personalized health care does not always follow the same process for every person, or facility, seeking our expertise and level of care.
2

Diagnostic Test Needed

Generally, most sleep issues require an initial diagnostic test so that a personalized treatment plan can be developed. If your doctor has already ordered a diagnostic sleep test, you can skip to the next step.

If you are struggling with sleep, and your doctor has not ordered a diagnostic sleep test, schedule an appointment with your primary Doctor to see if they feel a diagnostic sleep test is appropriate for you.

It should be noted that diagnostic sleep tests are not appropriate for everyone, and if your Doctor has not ordered one, book a free consultation today to see if there are other options, or resources available to you help you sleep better.

Behind the Scene Items

As we receive the order from your Doctor, there are several other behind the scene items that occur to help us ensure that we can provide the best care (and get paid too). As a patient, none of this step requires anything on your part, but is merely listed so that you can better understand why it takes a couple of days to a week to ensure that all required pre-study steps are completed before you can conduct your sleep study. 

Insurance Information (If applicable) - Most doctor's offices will pass on your insurance information with the sleep study order. This helps us ensure that your sleep study is pre-authorized with your insurance before we get you scheduled for your sleep study.

Records Transfer- Most doctor's offices will also pass on medical records such as your current medications, your last doctor's visit notes, and any other medical records pertaining to why a sleep study was ordered. These records are needed to help justify to insurance companies the necessity of a sleep study and helps ensure seamless payments. 
5

Time to Schedule 

Yeah!!!!!! All of the required pre-study paperwork is received by I-WAS Sleep, and it's time to schedule your sleep study. If you haven't done so, we will reach out you to get it scheduled and make sure that you don't have any questions about the rest of the sleep study process.
6

The Night Of Your Study

Local (Gunnison, Almont, Crested Butte, etc.)- Since we are all about personalization, we will schedule to meet you at your house, or another location of your choosing to help you get setup for your sleep study. During this time, we will go over any last minute questions you have, and let you know the next steps following your successful sleep study.

Non-Local (Everywhere else)- We will mail you your home sleep study device. As soon as you receive it, we will walk you through the setup, answer any last minute questions you have, and let you know the next steps following your successful sleep study.
7

The Morning After

When you wake up, several questions will be asked to help the interpreting doctor determine the results of your sleep study as the device uploads the data it recorded throughout the night. If you don't have consistent internet, this process generally only takes a couple of minutes to perform when an internet connection is restored.
8

Our Follow-Up

After a study has been determined that there is enough data for the interpreting physician to make a diagnosis, I-WAS Sleep will reach out to you as to what the next steps are.
 
If you happen to not have a normal night, don't worry, we will advise you if a 2 night study is required, or if there was enough data for a complete study. 

A fun fact about sleep studies is that any study that has more than 6 hours of data is usually determined as an ideal study. But even if we get less than that, you can still have a valid study because our bodies will generally cycle through all of the stages of sleep approximately every 90-120 minutes. So, even if you feel like you "messed it up," there is generally more than enough data to "see" what your body is doing during the various sleep stages.

Results

The results of a home sleep study are generally available within a week of your study and you will need to follow-up with the doctor who ordered the study with what the next steps are in your sleep discovery journey.

The biggest advise I-WAS Sleep can give you in this area is to follow what your doctor asks you to do. In our experience, the people who find the biggest success in the area of sleep are those who follow the advise of their doctor.

Once again, if you have any questions about what is next, please reach out to us.

Home Sleep Test (HST)

$600

Most sleep diagnosis generally start off with a noc ox which tracks your oxygen and heart rate while you sleep. While this is a very basic test, the results of this test can lead to your doctor ordering a home sleep study to further confirm, or investigate the reason why your oxygen, and/or heart rate is not optimal for sleep. While some home sleep devices look similar to a noc ox test, there are a lot more sensors and data to help your doctor to diagnose several sleep issues related to several breathing issues like sleep apnea, soring, or lead to suspicions of restless leg syndrome.

Billing Info- Home Sleep Study (CPT-95801)
The price for an in-house diagnostic sleep study is $600. We are currently in negotiations with the local insurance plans and are unable to offer insurance coverage at this time. 

It should also be noted that this price covers the device and interpreting physicians fee. If you are shopping around, most sleep labs have these costs separated to make them appear "better." However, we at I-WAS Sleep we do not like this common practice within the medical world and you will only ever receive an all-inclusive bill for your home sleep study when you choose us.

Sleep Coaching Services

Varies

Sleep coaching may be ordered by your doctor to help improve your sleep habits and routines to address issues like insomnia, poor sleep quality, etc.

Billing Info- Sleep Coaching (CPT-95811)
The price for sleep coaching depends on the number of sessions and what sleep issues are being addressed. Book a free consultation to see how we specialize in pay as you go sessions.

When you utilize sleep coaching through I-WAS Sleep you will receive a bill for each sleep coaching session which is payable upon service.

Contractual

If there is enough time, and when certain criteria are meet, a technologist might transition a diagnostic sleep study into a split night study. This means that the technologist is going to wake you up to attempt to trial a therapy such as CPAP, BiPAP, ASV, etc. to see if there are any changes to what was observed in the 1st half of the night.

The biggest advantage to a split night is that there is a good chance that you only need to have one sleep study because both the diagnostic and titration are attempted in the same night and you don't have to return to perform the titration study. When this occurs it saves you the time and resources from having to be utilized for a second in-house sleep study.

Billing Info- Split Night In-House Sleep Study (CPT-95811)
The price for an in-house split night sleep study is $6,000. Since we work with most insurance plans, the actual patient cost is generally less depending on a person's insurance plan, deductible, and coverage limits. For more personalized information as to how much it will cost, we can run an insurance estimate prior to your test.

It should also be noted that this price covers the device and interpreting physicians fee. If you are shopping around, most sleep labs have these costs seperated to make them appear "better." However, we at I-WAS Sleep Lab do not like this common practice within the medical world and you will only ever receive an all-inclusive bill for your in-house diagnostic sleep study.


Titration In-House Sleep Study

$6,000

Once it is determined there is stopping of breathing, restrictions to air flow, snoring, etc. a titration study will be ordered to determine what mode, settings, mask, etc. are needed to help mitigate the health risks of low or restricted oxygenation.

In general, there are three reasons why a doctor will order a titration sleep study. 

1. You need to set up for the first time with a CPAP, Bipap, ASV, etc. based on the results of a home sleep study, or an in-house diagnostic study.

2. Your current CPAP, Bipap, ASV, etc. settings need to be adjusted, or the doctor wants to try a different or more advanced therapy mode. Split night studies that were unable to determine ideal settings also fall under this category. 

3. Some insurance companies require you to have a repeat study to verify if CPAP, BiPAP, ASV, etc. are still needed. Additionally, settings or therapy mode will be verified to ensure that the most ideal settings are validated. Depending on the age of the last study is whether a diagnostic study or a titration study is ordered. In general, a previous study less than 5 years old will be a titration study and a study over 5 years will be a diagnostic study.
