Insurance Coverage
Health insurance covers and pays for much of (but not all)
sleep testing and treatment costs for sleep disorders. As with
all insurance and medical costs, there may be a deductible and/
or co-pay with each visit.
Insurance Carriers
Maimonides and Dr. Barry Krakow are contracted providers
with most health insurance plans; however, we are not a network
provider with Cigna or Lovelace. Maimonides will also obtain
authorization for Tricare/Triwest patients prior to consultation
and treatment.
Sleep Testing
Overnight sleep studies may be warranted at any time during
PTSD treatment to diagnose and treat physiologic sleep
problems that can exacerbate PSTD symptoms. Overnight
sleep studies will be scheduled as recommended by Dr. Barry
Krakow or at the request of a referring healthcare provider.
All clinical appointments and sleep studies will be billed to a
patient’s insurance company
Disclaimer
You should always consult with your counselor or therapist
prior to enrolling in the PTSD sleep clinic. If you are unsure or
do not have a counselor or therapist, please consult with your
Primary Care Physician.
