How the Home Sleep Testing Process Works

For Durable Medical Equipment (DME) Providers

Home sleep testing (HST) is a very convenient and cost efficient way for patients to receive in home diagnostic testing for suspected obstructive sleep apnea. Home diagnostic testing is constantly growing as physicians are realizing it’s advantages. However, there are often times still complications and as the process is very complex due to CMS regulations. Here at Vitalistics™, we get rid of those complications. With our streamlined work flows, efficient DME-physician communication process, user friendly DME dashboard, and 24/7 support system, the process of home sleep testing is made easier then ever. Follow our 5 step process below and start bringing efficiency to HSTs.

Step by Step

  1. Create an Account. Create an account with Vitalistics through vitalistics.com
  2. Physician Places Order. If a physician sees a patient with symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea, they will create a prescription for a HST, and send it to Vitalisitcs.
  3. Vitalisics Handles it From Here. Once a test is ordered from the referring physician, Vitalisitcs will contact the patient, schedule a delivery for the Home Sleep Test Kit, and interpret the data the following day after the device is returned. The report and treatment recommendations are then made available to the referring physician and DME – assuming the patient has given authorization to the DME to access the results.

As HST services are growing, so is Vitalistics . We are currently expanding our HST services state by state, so check back frequently to see if home sleep testing with Vitalistics has come to your area!
