Ago that needs another sleep study. Blue cross denied it, saying he needs a home sleep study.
After nearly an hour on the phone, bouncing through phone trees and absolute nonsense that is set up just to piss off the clinic, I spoke with a physician to get it approved and he said "how do you know the patient has central"? Uh, an in lab sleep study...
What an absolute crock.
For those that don't know, central sleep apnea NEEDS an in lab, it is the standard of care. You could do a home study, but it is not good practice.
