Sleep Study Requesting (Referral Form)
Oshawa Durham Sleep Laboratory provides clinical diagnostic, treatment and educational services including patient examination, assessment and evaluation of all sleep disorders by our consulting sleep physicians with management recommendations and follow-up planning.
All of our clinical and technical work is done by referral only. Referring doctors' offices are to be advised that under the Independent Health Facilities Act, all patients referred for a sleep study must have a requisition signed and dated by the referring physician or nurse practitioner. The referring physician or nurse practitioner must provide the information on the requisition filling in as much information as possible. The indications for sleep study should be described as well as any relevant clinical history including the reason for referral.
If a referring doctor requests a consultation only, a referral letter is required. The name of the physician performing the consultation must be specified in the letter of referral or requisition, as this is an OHIP requirement. If the referring doctor does not indicate a particular doctor for the consultation, we will book the patient with the first available physician.
Helping you achieve restful and restorative sleep for improved physical and mental health.
