1. Activate Your Patient Portal: Once referred, you will receive an email to activate your patient portal. This is important for managing your test, checking insurance, and scheduling appointments.
2. Insurance Verification: After activating your portal, SleepTest.com will verify your insurance. This typically takes 24-48 hours. You will receive an email detailing any out-of-pocket costs.
3. Pre-Test Telemedicine Appointment: Most insurance plans require a telemedicine visit before the test. This appointment requires a device with a camera and a stable internet connection.
4. Receive Your Test Kit: SleepTest.com will ship your test kit to you. You will have about five days to complete the test and return the kit using a prepaid label.
5. Conduct the Test: Follow the instructions provided with the test kit to complete your sleep test at home. Ensure you gather at least five hours of data to avoid retesting fees.
6. Return the Test Kit: Use the prepaid label to send the test kit back. This is important to avoid any additional fees.
7. Post-Test Telemedicine Appointment: If you have severe sleep apnea or your insurance requires it, you will need a follow-up telemedicine appointment to discuss your results and treatment options.
8. Receive Your Results: Once the test kit is returned, your results will typically be available within four business days. You can access them through your patient portal.
