I recently had a sleep study at Jefferson and I want to start by saying the staff was very kind and professional. They explained everything clearly before, during, and after the study, which helped ease my nerves. The nurse even made small talk with me because I was anxious, and that meant a lot. Unfortunately, the condition of the room was very disappointing and needs serious improvement. The room felt outdated and had multiple issues. There was an air vent, but the room was hot with no way to adjust the temperature, which made it uncomfortable to sleep. The bathroom was the biggest concern. It honestly felt more like something you would see in a prison or mental hospital setting. The lighting barely worked, and it would randomly shut off, leaving me using the bathroom and showering in

I waited the better part of a year for an appointment. I was hoping to be scheduled for an overnight sleep study, because I was under the mistaken impression that it could provide useful data for evaluating where my trouble sleeping stemmed from. I met with a fellow in the program who took my history, and then relayed it to the doctor. The fellow who took my history didn't seem enthusiastic about the usefulness of the test, but the doctor seemed to think it was a good idea, so the test was scheduled, and I never saw or heard from the doctor or the fellow again. I packed up my overnight stuff and took the 1 hour ride back to the center for the sleep study. When the tech came in to hook me up to all the monitoring devices, he did not go over the procedure with me before starting, nor di

They just called me to confirm an appointment and the employee was super rude before hanging up on me. I told her that her voice was cutting out and I couldn’t hear everything she was saying, so she just yelled at me and hung up. This is after I’ve waited nearly a year to get an appointment

Told the Doctor and the scheduling lady that the only way that I would do the recommended sleep study was if there was no out of pocket cost to me. Even told my sleep tech that I was only doing it because there was no costs. I ended up with a $5k bill even though they assured me there was no out of pocket costs!! Not once did they mention to check my deductible. BE CAREFUL. Don't trust their word.

This sleep center turned what could have been a nightmare (pardon the pun) scenario for me into a supportive, easy-as-it-could be experience. My insurance rejected the prior auth for a sleep study, and Dr. Fast and Sherri both took care of the (lengthy) appeal process, which was a huge weight off my shoulders. Having finally done the sleep study, the study suites are much nicer than others I've read about online. Good mattress, adjustable temp, nice technicians, and a quiet environment.

What to expect at a sleep study appointment
For an in-lab study, you arrive in the evening and sleep in a private room while sensors record breathing, oxygen, heart rhythm and body movement. For a home sleep test, the clinic gives you a portable kit you use in your own bed. Neither test is painful. Results are usually compiled into a physician report within one to two weeks, and the clinic then discusses whether treatment — such as CPAP therapy or an oral appliance — is needed.
Preparation basics: avoid caffeine in the afternoon, skip lotions and hair products, bring comfortable sleepwear, and take your regular medications unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Frequently asked questions about Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center
What does Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center do?
Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center is a sleep medicine clinic in Philadelphia, PA that evaluates and treats sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea, chronic insomnia, restless legs syndrome and narcolepsy. Evaluation usually involves a sleep study, and treatment may include CPAP therapy, an oral appliance, or behavioral therapy depending on the diagnosis.
Do I need a referral to book a sleep study at Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center?
Sleep study costs vary widely with the type of test, your insurance plan and your deductible. Home sleep tests generally cost less than in-lab studies. Ask the clinic for an itemized estimate and check with your insurer about in-network rates before booking.
Does insurance cover sleep studies and CPAP treatment?
Most US insurers, including Medicare, cover sleep studies and CPAP therapy when they are medically necessary and properly documented. Coverage details — deductibles, co-pays and supply replacement schedules — differ by plan, so verify with your insurer and the clinic.
How long does it take to get sleep study results?
Typically one to two weeks. A sleep physician reviews the recorded data and writes a report, after which the clinic discusses the findings and any recommended treatment with you.
Can I do the sleep study at home?
Possibly. Home sleep apnea tests suit many adults with a high likelihood of obstructive sleep apnea and no major heart or lung conditions. If your symptoms are complex or the home test is negative despite strong symptoms, an in-lab study is usually the next step. The clinic can determine which option fits you.
What should I bring to my appointment at Jefferson Sleep Disorders Center?
Comfortable sleepwear, your photo ID and insurance card, a list of current medications, and your own pillow if that helps you sleep. Avoid caffeine after midday and skip lotions or hair products, because sensors attach better to clean skin.
