Talk about a dangerous trend:
"Requests for authorization of laboratory polysomnography will be denied if the patient is clinically appropriate for home sleep testing."-- http://www.sleepreviewmag.com/sleep_rep ... ter=topten
Yikes!

If I were a doc (heaven forbid), I would find reasons to suspect EVERY patient of having PLMD or CompSAS, so that EVERY patient was clinically inappropriate for home sleep testing.
