They do know what they're talking about. From the 2003 CPT manual:
95808 Polysomnography, sleep staging with 1-3 additional parameters of sleep, attended by a technologist.

95810 ...sleep staging with 4 or more additional parameters of sleep, attended by a technologist.

95811 ...sleep staging with 4 or more additional parameters of sleep, with initiation of continusous positive airway pressure therapy or bilevel ventilation, attended by a technologist.

Please note the last 4 words in each of the listings.
