Insurance & Medicare

Have Health Insurance or Medicare? Here's How to Use It for Your Oral Appliance.

If you have health insurance or Medicare and want to use your benefits to cover a custom oral appliance for sleep apnea, here is exactly how the process works — from your first call to your final follow-up.

1

Contact Our Office

Give us a call or send us a message. Our team will gather some basic information and get you started on the right path.

2

Telehealth Visit with a Sleep Physician

We will schedule a one-on-one telehealth consultation for you with a board-certified sleep physician.  This visit is done from the comfort of your own home.

3

Home Sleep Test Sent to You

The sleep physician will send a home sleep test directly to you. You will wear the device overnight in your own bed.

4

Results Reviewed with You

Once the test is complete, the sleep physician will review your results with you and explain what they mean for your health and sleep quality.

5

Prescription Written (If Appropriate)

If your results indicate obstructive sleep apnea, the physician will write you a prescription for an oral appliance or a different therapy — the same prescription your insurance requires to cover treatment.

6

Initial Scans & Records at Our Office

You will come in to see us for your initial dental scans and records. This is how we design your custom-fit appliance (called a mandibular advancement device) with precision.

7

Receive Your Custom Oral Appliance

A few weeks later you will return to our office to receive your custom mandibular advancement device and begin treating your condition.

8

Follow-Up Care

We will see you for several follow-up visits over the coming weeks to ensure your appliance is fitting well, comfortable, and working effectively to treat your sleep apnea.
