I live in a place with socialized healthcare (Canada), and did a sleep study, which didn't cost me anything, in January... In about two weeks from now, I sit down with a doctor to review their findings.

The sleep study is very much a non-emergency. I did it because my lady has complained about the noise I make when I sleep, I also frequently get bad sleep for one reason or another.

It's non-critical, and I've spent more than six months waiting for results.

Bluntly, I'd rather wait longer than pay more. I know anything important/life threatening would be completed same-day, and I've had that experience too. Though, at the time, I wasn't really in a life threatening situation.

That's totally reasonable.
