INCREDIBILY, you will save time and money driving to Ventura or San Luis Obispo. DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU EXPECT EQUITABLE PROMPT SERVICE. I need a cpap mask. They had them in stock. The person in charge of the masks was in the back. There were no other clients in the office and they sent me away. I drove from downtown SB twice because they do not answer the phone and their posted hours are incorrect. They want me to email the doctor to email the tech to set up an expensive appointment I do not need and will take days to set up. My experience indicates that this sleep center is a shoddy racket with poor quality of service and no ethics. I would avoid doing business here if at all possible. MY SENSE IS THIS IS A BUSINESS SET UP TO RIP YOU OFF!

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 Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic
What does Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic do?
Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic is a sleep medicine clinic in Santa Barbara, CA 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 Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic?
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 Santa Barbara Sleep Clinic?
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.
