SleepQuest, San Carlos, Calif, a provider of in-home sleep testing and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment, recently signed a contract with Aetna Inc. SleepQuest will be a national provider of sleep apnea testing and treatment as part of Aetna’s participating network of health care providers.
"Aetna has taken a national leadership position in increasing access for diagnosing sleep-related illnesses like sleep apnea. It is our hope that if these conditions are diagnosed sooner, patients will receive treatment, which could improve their quality of life,” said Robert Koenigsberg, president and CEO of SleepQuest. “SleepQuest is very excited to be in a position where we can reach out to more physicians and patients to help fight these debilitating disorders."
"As one of the first national insurers to provide increased access to in-home testing, Aetna is ahead of the curve," said Lori Schulman, SleepQuest’s director of contracting, in an announcement about the partnership.
