We run the study. You get a report you can use.
Dentists and GPs send us patients from all over Australia. We post the kit, do the Medicare paperwork, and send you the sleep physician's report.
Free Sleep Passports
A box of passports for your waiting room or your chair. The code in each one starts the patient's sleep study, so the referral takes you about ten seconds.
- Give your patient a Sleep Passport.
- They scan the code.
- They fill in the online forms and book their home sleep study.
Reports you can use
Sleep scientists score every study and a sleep physician writes the diagnosis. Beyond the apnoea-hypopnoea index, the report gives you:
- Bruxism analysis, so clenching and grinding during sleep don't fly under the radar.
- Airway collapsibility, to show whether a mandibular advancement splint is likely to suit, or whether CPAP is the better option.
- Arousal threshold, how easily the patient wakes, which affects how they'll get on with therapy.
- Sleep architecture, from a full Type 2 recording.
The report comes to you and the patient about two weeks after we receive the data.

Patient guides
Send patients to the appliance guides: how to wear and clean each appliance, the Snore Attack Shield, the morning positioner, and the warnings they need to read.
For GPs
Your patient fills in our online form and uploads your referral. If they're eligible, the study is bulk billed and we do the Medicare paperwork. Patients who don't have a referral can opt in to our in-house GP referral service, and their report can still come to you.
The medical history form screens for the people the Australasian Sleep Association's guidelines say are better tested in a lab, and we'll tell your patient if that's them. Eligibility in full.
