Frequently Asked Questions
Why am I still tired after 8 hours of sleep?
If you still feel tired after getting 8 hours of sleep, it’s probably because something is going on while you sleep that makes it difficult to get high quality sleep. This could range from excessive noise and artificial light in your bedroom to a sleep disorder that keeps you from resting at the level your body needs.
What are common symptoms of sleep disorders?
The most common symptoms are:
- Excessive sleepiness during the day
- Loud snoring, choking, or gasping sounds
- Dry mouth after waking up
- Morning headaches
- Waking up frequently during the night
- Difficulty falling or staying asleep
- Mood changes, such as irritability
- Less concentration or attention during the day
What are the side effects of sleep deprivation?
Insufficient sleep can cause you to feel tired during the day, groggy, fatigued, and irritable. In the long term, chronic sleep loss is linked to obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension, depression, anxiety, and increased alcohol use.
How do I know if I have a sleep disorder?
You will need to work with a sleep specialist who can properly diagnose a sleep disorder. With Primasun, you can connect with a board certified sleep specialist virtually. The specialist will determine if it makes sense to take an at-home sleep test to find out more about what’s happening with your sleep.
How does sleep affect my mood?
When you don’t sleep enough, you’re more likely to feel irritable or have a depressed mood, which makes it impossible to feel like your best self.
How does sleep affect the brain?
Sleep affects your brain’s ability to take in new information and form memories. Read more about how sleep impacts the brain here.
Employers
Poor sleep health isn’t just a nuisance, it’s a liability.
30% of the workforce has a sleep disorder that threatens productivity and safety.
- $16 Billion – U.S. companies spend on sleep-related healthcare.
- $63 Billion – Cost of productivity loss due to poor sleep.
- $31 Billion – Cost of sleep-related workplace accidents and mistakes.
- 2X – More likely that employees miss work.
What drives the cost?
- Presence – Tired employees are more likely to get sick, miss work, or become disengaged.
- Productivity – Poor sleep impairs decision-making and makes it difficult to focus.
- Safety – Insufficient sleep increases the risk of workplace accidents, fatal crashes, and related healthcare costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can Primasun help my organization?
We help productivity, engagement, and workplace safety by identifying and treating employees with underlying sleep conditions and related health conditions. Employer-driven obstructive sleep apnea screening programs, for example, have proven to reduce workplace accidents by up to 73%, save $500-700 per member per month in healthcare costs, and double employee retention.
How can a sleep program impact employee engagement and retention?
Poor sleep affects employees’ ability to work safely and productively, costing companies billions and creating unwelcome conditions for employees. The traditional pathway to care for employees suffering from a sleep disorder is difficult to navigate and costly. Primasun provides an end-to-end digital pathway for identification, diagnosis, and treatment of sleep disorders, dramatically improving the employee experience of care.
How can I tell if I have tired employees?
Employees who are getting insufficient sleep may appear tired at work, sluggish, fatigued, irritable, have difficulty concentrating, and are less productive. These employees often have increased absenteeism and a higher risk of unsafe behavior.
How are sleep and productivity related?
Sleep impacts our ability to concentrate, learn, remember, and make sound decisions. Our brains are powerful but delicate: just one night of inadequate, restless sleep can change the brain at a chemical level, negatively affecting its capacity to respond to new situations.
How is Primasun different from other sleep programs?
Primasun is the leading clinically effective platform that provides an end-to-end care pathway for sleep disorders. We combine advanced technology with a dedicated team of sleep physicians, respiratory therapists, and sleep coaches. Primasun is the only platform that addresses the clinical aspects of sleep care for people with sleep disorders and can address people with conditions that are comorbid with sleep disorders.
Poyors
Sleep is the missing link to understanding and treating costly comorbidities.
In the US alone, poor sleep costs more than $411 billion each year.
- 70,000,000 – Estimated U.S. adults who suffer from a sleep disorder.
- 90% – People with sleep disorders go undiagnosed or untreated, leaving them more vulnerable to costly chronic condition.
- 2X – Communities of color are twice as likely to have a sleep disorder.
- $3,000 – Estimated additional healthcare costs for each employee with untreated sleep disorder.
What drives the cost?
- Risk – Studies show that poor sleep worsens the most costly health conditions, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, obesity, hypertension, and depression.
- Process – The path to identify members with a sleep disorder, support them through care, and help them stay adherent is inefficient and costly.
- Disparity – Disparities in sleep health and accessible care compound health inequities, which cost the US healthcare system approximately $320 billion.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does improving sleep impact population health?
The most prevalent sleep disorders, like sleep apnea and insomnia, are comorbid with some of the most costly and risky conditions, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, obesity, hypertension, depression, and anxiety.
Does treating sleep significantly improve cost of care?
The National Safety Council reports that employers pay approximately $3,000 per employee per year in additional healthcare care costs due to insufficient sleep and its effects. Because sleep is the underlying condition with many serious health conditions, treating sleep issues can significantly reduce the cost of care.
Which populations are most impacted by sleep disorders?
While sleep disorders are prevalent across all populations, there are certain demographics that are more vulnerable. Mature age groups, women, and people of color are statistically more likely to suffer from a sleep disorder. Disparities in access to care further the health equity gap — there are 43,000 Americans for every 1 sleep specialist, and most are concentrated in urban areas.
How is Primasun different from other sleep programs?
Primasun is the leading clinically effective platform that provides an end-to-end care pathway for sleep disorders. We combine advanced technology with a dedicated team of sleep physicians, respiratory therapists, and sleep coaches. Primasun is the only platform that addresses the clinical aspects of sleep care for people with sleep disorders and can address people with conditions that are comorbid with sleep disorders.
Healthcare Providers
Sleep is a critical factor in assessing health. But up to 90% of sleep disorders go undiagnosed or untreated.
Studies show that poor sleep worsens serious health conditions, making patients:
- 1.7X – more likely to have diabetes.
- 7.5X – more likely to have obesity.
- 1.45X – more likely to have a heart attack.
- 10X – more likely to have depression.
Why the unmet need?
- Awareness – A lack of awareness about the prevalence and severity of sleep disorders makes it challenging to identify patients at risk.
- Access – There is only 1 sleep specialist for every 43,000 Americans, and many practice only in more densely populated urban areas.
- Inefficiencies – The current path to sleep care is disjointed, demanding time and resources that health care professionals don’t have.
