Does Medicare Cover Sleep Apnea Treatment?
Medicare does in fact cover a number of services related to sleep apnea treatment, making the cost of not only getting a diagnosis but also receiving treatment much more manageable. Some of the aspects of care that Medicare will cover include:
- Sleep Study: Medicare Part B can help pay for Type I, II, III, and IV sleep tests if you’re showing clinical symptoms of sleep apnea.
- CPAP & Oral Appliance Treatments: In some cases, both CPAP therapy as well as oral appliances fall under Medicare so long as the devices are FDA-approved and the patient has received a sleep test and diagnosis that meets certain criteria.
- Consultation & Follow-Up Visits: Medicare also typically covers each of your visits to your treatment provider, so long as you don’t receive these services more often than Medicare allows.
How Much Will Medicare Cover for Sleep Apnea Treatment?
The cost of your treatment that Medicare will cover will depend on a number of factors, including where you received your sleep study and if it meets Medicare’s criteria, as well as the specifics of your plan. In many cases, our patients receiving sleep apnea treatment with Medicare in Weatherford pay little-to-nothing out-of-pocket for the entire process. Plus, our team will help maximize your benefits to help make receiving the care you need as affordable as possible.
Although rarely necessary for our patients with Medicare, we also offer additional flexible financing through CareCredit to make out-of-pocket expenses more manageable.
