An Open Letter to the Community About Out of Pocket Healthcare Expenses From the Sleep Wellness Institute, Inc.

Dear Friends and Neighbors:

In uncertain times like these, we all have come to recognize the importance of finding ways to save money on the products and services our families need. Perhaps there is no area where this is as evident as healthcare services. We want the best care for our families, and we need it at a cost we can afford.

As health insurance premiums, deductibles and co-pays increase, we often find ourselves digging into our own pockets for the necessary healthcare services our families use. And that is why we, at the Sleep Wellness Institute, offer you this pledge:

If you or someone covered on your health insurance plan needs an overnight sleep study to diagnose a sleep disorder, and your insurance plan lists the Sleep Wellness Institute as “in network,”- and most do - then the Sleep Wellness Institute guarantees to provide that study at a lower out-of-pocket expense to you than any hospital sleep disorders program in southeastern Wisconsin. We will also accept convenient monthly payment plans to assist you.

For many people, that out of pocket savings can be hundreds of dollars!

We can do this because we are Wisconsin’s largest independent sleep disorders center and a fully accredited healthcare facility that is totally dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. Our overhead is far less than any hospital, and our charges for extremely high quality services rendered in a very comfortable, home-like setting, are significantly less.

The decision where to be diagnosed and treated is in your hands. In most cases, YOU have the right to choose where you will receive healthcare services. If you or your doctors feel that you need quality sleep care, please call us at 414-336-3000 to find out more about how you can save money that will impact your family’s bottom line.

Sincerely,

March 10, 2010
