Conditions "require" a certain type of study, However the majority of sleep physicians will side with some information vs not having at all. For example a person with Afib, reaches the criteria to have a sleep study performed in-lab. This person has the right to refuse the study in-lab and we could perform it at home, but with the explanation this is not the recommended study for them by AASM Is the link to the official read: https://aasm.org/resources/clinicalguidelines/diagnostic-testing-osa.pdf . But basically this is just a situation that the doctor would discuss with the patient.
Typically it is your conditions that will dictate which type of sleep study will provide the best information for your diagnosis. However, some insurance companies may direct patients to specifically choose an "In Center" or "At Home" Sleep Study. Reliable MD uses the latest Sleep Study equipment assuring you have the best experience regardless of which type of study is chosen.

Reliable MD has spared no expense. Our team has invested in the Next Generation Nox T3 sleep testing device. The Nox T3 is a state-of-the-art device that can capture the same data you would capture in a traditional in-lab monitored sleep study setting.
This means that we can collect the same data with the Nox T3 while you are at your own home, in your own bed, with your dog, cat, or partner curled up beside you as we would get if you were to stay overnight at our center. The machine is comfortable, non-intrusive, and best of all wireless so you are not tethered to a big machine with a set of octopus tentacles wrapping you up in tubes and wires as you try to sleep.
Reliable MD completely understands that CPAP machines are not a "one size fits all" solution.
