Besides waiting ~6 months to finally get an appointment that was 6 months out. So it took one year to get the appointment. I did the at home test. When I returned the equipment, I was told that the results may take a while because they are understaffed. Okay cool I can understand that. That was 1 year ago… still no results even when I checked 6 months ago. Now I can’t even sign in to MyChart. This whole process of trying to get my login in back has been one of the most frustrating thing in my life. I will never recommend any Virginia mason hospital in my life. If I get in an accident and the only hospital that can help me, I would rather die

Recommend getting your sleep test done elsewhere. The actual sleep study was fine with a decent facility and nice nurse to run the test. The problem is that they apparently take up to 8 weeks to send the test result to you doctor. That is 2 months or 1/6th of a year which is completely unreasonable. I recommend that you go somewhere that can provide you with test results within a reasonable timeframe.

I was worried about this test. But my tech made me feel so relaxed. She was funny and very professional!! Put me at ease. It seemed like alot of wires, but I was able to sleep like normal and they didn't bother me much at all. Thank you all so much

Person at the front desk is useless. It's been 2 months since my initial consultation. I called a month in asking for an update but no answer so I left a message. Still nothing an additional month later, so I show up in person. She's yapping on the phone with someone else about her holiday plans. She simply says she doesn't have any update about the referral and tells me to call the doctor (also through Franciscan) or my insurance. How about you pick up the phone and do your job?

The guy that did my sleep study was great. He showed me some tricks for when I get my own CPAP set up. They explained everything in detail and made me feel comfortable.

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 St. Clare Sleep Disorders Center
What does St. Clare Sleep Disorders Center do?
St. Clare Sleep Disorders Center is a sleep medicine clinic in Lakewood, WA 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 St. Clare 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 St. Clare 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 St. Clare 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 St. Clare 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.
