Wink Health aimed to revolutionize sleep apnea treatment by providing a streamlined, accessible online solution. Recognizing that a significant majority (approximately 90%) of individuals with sleep apnea remain undiagnosed and untreated, Wink Health sought to eliminate the obstacles preventing proper diagnosis and care. Their approach integrated a smartphone application designed to detect potential sleep apnea risks through audio analysis, virtual telehealth consultations with qualified physicians, and the direct delivery of prescribed treatments to patients' homes. This comprehensive strategy intended to simplify and expedite the process of identifying and managing sleep apnea for a broader population.
