Sleep study cost in Kerala: the real 2026 price breakdown

What does a sleep study cost in Kerala in 2026?

A home sleep study in Kerala costs ₹2,500 with SleepEase. That single price covers a trained technician coming to your home, a Level 3 recording device for the night, and a scored report delivered on WhatsApp within 24 hours.

By contrast, an attended overnight study in a hospital sleep lab (Level 1 polysomnography) typically costs ₹8,000–₹15,000 in Kerala's private hospitals, and usually means a night away from home with the report following days later.

Why is a hospital sleep study so much more expensive?

A Level 1 lab study is attended: a technician monitors you in person overnight, and the setup records far more channels (brain waves, eye movement, leg movement) than a home test needs for a routine sleep-apnea question. That staffing and equipment is what you pay for.

For most people whose main issue is snoring, witnessed breathing pauses and daytime sleepiness, a Level 3 home test captures the information a doctor needs — airflow, breathing effort, oxygen and heart rate — at a fraction of the cost.

What about the cheap mail-order kits?

Courier 'do-it-yourself' oximetry or airflow kits are advertised at ₹1,899–₹2,099. They are cheaper on paper, but you fit the sensors yourself, which is the most common reason a home recording fails and has to be repeated. There is no technician to check the signal before you sleep.

SleepEase sends a trained technician to fit the device and confirm the signal is recording before leaving, so a wasted night is far less likely.

What is included in the ₹2,500 price?

The ₹2,500 covers the home visit and setup, the Level 3 device for one night, collection the next morning, scoring, and the report on WhatsApp within 24 hours. Raw data can be shared with your doctor on request at no extra charge.
