After completing an in home sleep test ordered by my primary Doctor, I was referred to Iowa Clinic…read morepulmonary in Ankeny. Iowa Clinic ordered a second more extensive in home sleep study. Both tests revealed I had sleep apnea. Iowa Clinic ordered me to do an in lab sleep study. Would not fill CPAP rx without it. My primary did not support need for in-lab. After pre-authorization I was told my out of pocket would be $156. I attempted the study but could not sleep. Subsequently insurance denied claim, reason was the study was not necessary. Stating an automatic machine could have been used. Iowa Clinic then filled the rx for the CPAP. I received a bill from Iowa Clinic for the failed sleep study for $2100.00. I tried to get an answer from IC as to why the sleep study was necessary and why a failed study would cost $2100.00. The only answer I received was they did everything they could with the insurance co. and I owed the money. I appealed the denial and it upheld it was unnecessary. I requested a third party review through the state and again, ruled unnecessary. I will never step foot in an Iowa Clinic again. I have changed to a different provider to monitor my sleep apnea.

Until now, I had been looking for a diagnosis for over 5 months. To obtain a referral to a specialist would take 2-3 phone call reminders on my part before any action would occur. Instead of digging deeper into my atypical symptoms, I was repeatedly told I was dealing with anxiety and stress rather than helping me identify the true issues. When I got to the point of needing an internal medicine referral, I had to call the clinic back 3 times before appointment was finally scheduled only for the appointment to occur an entire month later. I lost precious time in my search for answers despite repeated phone calls, clinic visits and a couple of trips to the ER. I have formally moved my care to Mercy - and feel like somebody is taking my concerns seriously!
