WHAT WE DO

We screen, diagnose and treat sleep apnea.

THE PROBLEM

30% to 50% of a company's employees suffer from sleep apnea.
12% have severe sleep apnea
Employees with sleep apnea have 2 to 5 times the number of accidents as employees treated for sleep apnea
Employees with sleep apnea have double the medical costs per year.
Employees with sleep apnea have twice the absenteeism.
Employees with sleep apnea are 20% less productive.
Recent court cases hold employers and employees liable for accidents caused by fatigue.

OUR PROGRAM

Our program systematically screens, diagnosis, treats, and monitors compliance
for sleep disorders.

This program will:

Reduce your company's exposure for liability.
Reduce workman compensation claims
Reduce medical costs of affected employees by an average of $6,000.00 per year
Reduce employee turnoverReduce absenteeism

The program is divided into four parts:

1) Screening -

the initial screening is accomplished by the employee completing a

short web-based medical questionnaire at no cost to the company. Completion

time is less than 5 minutes. The results are computer analyzed by a scientifically

validated software program.
2) Diagnosis –

employees that show risk for having sleep apnea will be further diagnosed with an
exam and sleep study. Depending on the employees exam the sleep study may be at

home or at a sleep lab.

3) Treatment –

our program offers a full line of the latest treatment modalities. Oral Appliance

Therapy is our first choice for mild and moderate cases of sleep apnea.

Satisfaction rates and compliance rates are over 90%. CPAP is our first choice for severe

sleep apnea. The Department of Transportation requires CPAP therapy for commercial drivers

with severe sleep apnea. We offer automated comfortable top quality CPAP machines so that

commercial drivers do not need to miss work.

4) Treatment monitoring-

for commercial drivers the Department of Transportation requires the employees

with severe sleep apnea to use the CPAP machine a minimum of 4 hours during the previous

24 hours of driving. Our CPAP machines are equipped with data cards to verify the employee's

compliance.

Oral appliance therapy is monitored with Sleep Connect, Inc. monitoring sensors.
This new technology will allow oral appliance therapy to have its compliance verified.
