Health Monitoring Corporation recently released Somnio, an Internet-based insomnia treatment program. It combines proven Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) methods with a rule decision-making computer algorithm to structure an insomnia treatment program that interacts directly with the patient.

Somnio Web site visitors are encouraged to complete a multiple question Sleep Interview, which is used to automatically generate an individual Sleep Profile. This profile will indicate with high probability if they are suffering from the symptoms of insomnia and should consider Somnio treatment.

Once enrolled, they begin the eight-session program by completing a sleep diary as they progress through each week. During the program, Somnio will identify sleep patterns and behaviors, help break habits that perpetuate insomnia, educate how to improve sleep hygiene, and guide the patient back to restoring a healthy sleep cycle. The program also provides patients with ongoing access to certified Somnio therapists.

Somnio now provides an opportunity for any sleep testing facility or medical practice to offer an Internet insomnia therapy program and benefit from the increased revenue generated by patients enrolling in the program. The software is licensed on a yearly basis with no limit to the number of patients who can register for treatment.
