Management Options
Management Services for Sleep Diagnostic and Treatment Centers
SLEEP960 provides management services and contracts for sleep diagnostic and treatment centers. These are available for virgin startups or established operations. Typically, this is managed as a “fee-per-study” although other “fee-for-service” or partnership arrangements are available. Compared to other sleep management providers, we have established three key advantages over the years:
- Experience: Our experience dates back to 1983 when managing our first hospital-based sleep center. It was subsequently accredited by the AASM in 1985, long before it became required by third-party payors. Since then, we have established, managed, and accredited a number of hospital-based, physician-based, and independent sleep centers.
- Partnerships: Our affiliations and partnerships with industry technology and service suppliers allow us to provide diagnostic, therapy, and management tools far below average market pricing. This reduces overall setup and operational expenses, resulting in more cost-effective management fees.
- Overhead: Reduced overhead expenses compared to larger sleep service providers allow SLEEP960 to provide more flexible contract periods and pricing tailored to each individual operation. Working with the SLEEP960 team will reduce the cost, time and uncertainty associated with the design, construction, certification, and management of your sleep center.
Management contracts are therefore dependent on what services and equipment are provided. We do not take a “cookie cutter” approach since experience has taught us each sleep center operation is unique. The risk is minimized since there are little or no upfront costs and fees are based on scheduled sleep studies.
