The Problem with Siloed Systems
Most sleep labs and respiratory care teams are juggling a complicated ecosystem of devices, software, and EHRs. From ApneaLink to WatchPAT, and from Athenahealth to Epic, technicians often jump between platforms just to complete one patient study. This fractured ecosystem leads to duplicate data entry, delayed diagnosis timelines, and limited visibility into patient status
Benefits of a Unified Platform
A centralized platform like Somnoware consolidates your tools into a seamless diagnostic workflow:
- All Devices, One Platform: Somnoware supports over 20 major devices, including Philips, Cadwell, Natus, and ResMed.
- Integrated EHR Compatibility: Bi-directional HL7 interfaces allow seamless scheduling, order intake, and report sharing.
- Automation-First Design: Features like digital referrals, electronic questionnaires, and real-time DME status tracking reduce friction at every stage.
What to Look for in an Integration Partner
When evaluating sleep lab platforms, make sure your vendor offers:
| Feature | Why It Matters |
| Device-Agnostic Support | Works with your existing hardware |
| EHR Interoperability | Minimizes IT headaches and data delays |
| Secure Compliance (SOC2, FedRAMP) | Protects PHI and simplifies audits |
Workflow in Action
Let’s say a patient is referred for a home sleep test:
- Referral is digitally faxed and auto assigned in Somnoware
- Patient is automatically scheduled and receives a digital screening form
- Device data flows directly from WatchPAT to Somnoware
- Interpretation report is autogenerated and e-signed
- Final results and orders are sent to the EHR and DME provider
That’s diagnostics made simple.
