I knew I was suffering from obstructive sleep apnea(OSA), but put off doing anything about it in part due to concern about the expense. Googling led me to read that a sleep study — required to investigate the condition — can run $ 5000. I first investigated Pacmed; their promoting their sleep studies as using a luxury downtown hotel heightened my concern that this procedure would be a high-margin procedure used to milk me and/or my insurance coverage. My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Chang. He efficiently and inexpensively confirmed my concern via a single office visit, followed immediately by a sleep study conducted right in his Burien office suite. Total billed costs: Office visit: $ 325 Lab work: $ 398 Sleep study: $ 2800 Spendy, but not as high as I’d feared. Anyone out there who suspects they are suffering from a sleep disorder has probably determined through Google that these rates are reasonable.
