Do you have medical insurance? If so, that will probably cover the cost of a dental appliance. Your doctor can probably give you a referral to a dentist who makes them. I would recommend getting one custom fitted. You can get generic/one-size-fits-all type appliances, but I personally wouldn't trust them as much as one made by a dentist who specializes in them. But yeah, since it's for treatment of a medical problem, not a dental problem, med insurance should cover it. What did your doctor who ordered the sleep study suggest? Good luck!
