Summary
The two most common clinical sleep disorders, insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), affect >4 million Australians, costing Australia over $66 billion annually. People with sleep disorders are receiving care that is far from best practice and is potentially dangerous. This novel partnership study represents a major step towards improving management of sleep disorders in primary care (PC) using new, evidence-based, models of care for insomnia and OSA, designed specifically for PC.
