An accredited sleep disorders program is a significant resource to the medical community and to the public. Accreditation by the AASM assures quality patient care through comprehensive clinical evaluation and treatment, which is the primary concern of your patients and the public. Additionally, AASM accreditation is the gold standard by which other organizations and companies evaluate sleep programs. This is reflected in the fact that in many states third party payers require, for reimbursement, that sleep studies be conducted at an AASM-accredited facility.
At MSDC, we have 5 board certified AASM sleep specialists and 4 nurse practitioners expertly trained in sleep disorders who can diagnose and treat ANY sleep related problem that you might have.
