Worried about sleep apnea data being thrown out due to me not being able to complete the 2nd part due to time [emoji30][emoji17]

I'm still in my sleep apnea study right now & I was just told that I have to come back for the cpap part because we ran out of time...I guess I was required to sleep 2 full hours before 2am in order to start the cpap portion but I have really bad insomnia so I don't fall asleep right away. The tech said my dr will have more than enough data now because I slept a little longer but that hopefully my insurance won't throw this data out & make me start over because some insurances want both parts of the test at once....a little worried now. Like I have insomnia that shouldn't be held against me.? I have united health care through the state btw. I don't want to have do this over.....

I had to have 2 sleep studies. First one I felt I didn't sleep at all. I slept no more than 50 mins total the entire night. They had enough data to diagnose sleep apnea.
2nd study was Titration. Sleeping with the mask I slept all night.

Thanks for clearing that up & giving me hope. I wasn't sure if what I just did was enough for my dr to submit to the insurance as the final record of sleep apnea. How long did it take you to be scheduled for your 2nd testing?
