Dr. Al-Himyary relates his experience with the institution of a sleep educator program. His successful and growing education program grew out of a need to maximize the use of physician time as his patient load increased. He encountered push back from doubtful referring physicians and training educators in tasks that they had not encountered as night technologists. He provides insight into solutions to these problems and addresses the business issues associated with his program. He provides suggestions for billing codes to use and ways to optimize communication using electronic medical records.
