Cost-sharing for sleep disorder testing (sleep studies)

November 1, 2012

Beginning with December 1, 2012, dates of service, cost-sharing (deductible, coinsurance, and/or copayments) will apply to sleep studies for all commercial HMO and POS members in Pennsylvania and all HMO, POS, and PPO members in Delaware*. Members will be responsible for the same cost-sharing that is applied to their routine radiology benefit. Cost-sharing varies based on the member?s type of coverage and benefit plan. Providers can view a summary of member benefits on the NaviNet? web portal. Cost-sharing for sleep studies can be found under "Routine Radiology/Diagnostic" within the Benefit Snapshot when using the Eligibility and Benefits Inquiry transaction. Providers without NaviNet access must contact Customer Service at 1-800-275-2583 to determine the appropriate member cost-share responsibility. Please refer to our Medical Policy website for detailed information on our coverage of sleep disorder testing.

* All Delaware Small Employer Health Plans are excluded.
