The primary objective of this project is to compare a health care delivery model, Direct Referral for Apnea Monitoring (DREAM), with initial in-person (Traditional) clinic appointments for Veterans at risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A secondary objective is to determine the negative predictive value (NPV) of home sleep apnea testing (HSAT).
