I was the only one qualified in the hospital and the pulmonary doctors group to perform and score the sleep studies. Of course the pulmonologist has the final say but they never corrected anything. It’s pretty obvious to score after the 1st month what the readings are. But...... getting certified to do it ain’t easy.
I suspect the wait in 2020 is probably still a lack of qualified staff than an insurance company trying to **** people over. The pure economics are obvious to the insurance company, getting the patient on CPAP is cheaper for them than dealing with the deteriorating effects of sleep apnea.
