Home screening Service

£199.50 + VAT

If you feel you have the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), or are concerned you may be at risk, our sleep clinic can offer you a simple screening test. We’ll post you a small device to monitor your breathing overnight, or you can pick one up at the clinic. Once you’ve done the test, you can share the data from the device with your GP or sleep consultant, who should be able to advise you further.

 

Home diagnostic sleep study

£325.50 (+ a minimum £50 courier and handling fee)

Following referral from your doctor, our sleep clinic offers a diagnostic service either remotely by courier or by pay and collect from our London clinic. This test gives your sleep consultant a more detailed picture for diagnosis and uses non-intrusive equipment overnight in your own home. You’ll use a device to measure your breathing, chest and abdominal movements, oxygen levels and heartrate during sleep. On completion of the sleep study, we will send the results to your referring GP or sleep consultant. They will discuss the results with you and explain your options. If you’re found to have OSA, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is often the recommended treatment.

PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE: Please note ResMed does not have any association with any private health care insurance providers. If you have private health insurance, we still require full payment in advance. It is your responsibility to re-claim through your private health insurance provider directly if applicable. We can issue you with a receipt to support your claim. Please note courier fees may not be reimbursable by your insurer.

 

 

Auto CPAP treatment

New-to-treatment set-up appointment

Once your referring doctor or sleep consultant confirms your OSA status and provides a prescribed treatment plan, we can support your therapy with an automatic positive airway pressure device (APAP).

ResMed prides itself in customer care and we want to help you begin your treatment journey and become a successful APAP user.

We offer a one-hour appointment at our London clinic for a new-to-treatment set-up consultation at a fee of £178.50 (+ cost of products). This consultation includes education on OSA, APAP therapy and ongoing support within the first few weeks of treatment, including a one-month review. We will also keep your GP and/or sleep consultant updated with your progress.

We are also able to offer this service remotely.

The referral process

A new-to-treatment set up appointment for APAP therapy will include an initial consultation prior to device use, followed by support calls to aid your introduction to therapy. The first appointment will involve discussing your medical history and diagnosis followed by information on your treatment and mask options.

The second call will take place once you have received your equipment. One of our sleep experts will advise on correct mask fitting and care, providing any adjustments required. The third call follows your second appointment and will help check if any adjustments made are having the desired effect. After the fourth call our sleep expert will write to your referring consultant with a review.

The cost of a new set up appointment is £178.50. This includes the 2 x 30 minute consultations as well as ongoing support within the first few weeks of therapy.

Treatment Reviews

ResMed prides itself in providing quality customer care, so we give you the option of making a review appointment to discuss your treatment to date and review any data downloaded from your ResMed device. We can view your data from either your ResMed device’s SD card* or with an AirSense10 device AirView data package.

Our review appointments allow us to discuss your treatment to date and review any data downloaded from your ResMed device.

Reviews can be completed remotely or at our London clinic.

To complete a telephone review, please fill in our online form and post the SD card from your ResMed device to us, along with your contact details. Once received we will contact you to arrange a review. Any changes to your treatment are stored on the SD card and once this is inserted back into your ResMed device the necessary adjustments will be updated. Copies of the review reports will be sent to you and your referring sleep consultant or GP.

*Please note, we can only provide this service to users of ResMed devices.

 

A telephone review appointment fee is £52.50 for up to 30 minutes. Payment will be taken over the phone at the start of the consultation. We accept all cards other than American Express.

(Please note we can only make changes to your device clinical settings if you have previously been referred to us by a doctor and you are under our care for your CPAP treatment. If you are not under our care we are able to provide a report that outlines the date information from your therapy that your healthcare provider can review and make changes to your care.

If you would like to go ahead with a telephone review appointment, please either send in your SD card as instructed above or contact us on 0800 917 7071 or 01235 862997 (option 4) to book a review with a new or existing data package.
