Initial Sleep Study (without xPAP)
Read this Wiki article, [[Sleep_study|Sleep study]], (also known as a Polysomnography or PSG) for a detailed description of the study.
 
=== Australia ===
Australian Medicare will cover some or all of the cost, depending on the exact nature of the test and whether the patient is an adult or child. Many sleep clinics will bulk bill the procedure cost, but check first.
 
If you have the test as a public patient at a public hospital, there should generally be no cost but there may be a long waiting list and not all public hospitals have sleep test facilities.
 
For private facilities, your private health insurance may cover some or all of the facility cost for the overnight stay. This will vary depending on the type of facility, your health fund and which table you are on. Check with the fund and facility prior to committing.
