You bet it is. It is estimated that 20% of all auto accidents in Europe are from drivers falling asleep. Lack of sleep has been implicated with the Challenger accident, the Exxon Valdez oil spill and the near meltdown at Three Mile Island. Studies in Canada have shown that patients with untreated sleep apnea have more than twice the medical expenses for up to ten years prior to their treatment. One could ask, how does this impact the cost of medicine in America today? How much could businesses and individuals save with their medical premiums? How much productivity is lost with sleepy workers and how many work-related accidents could be prevented?<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e77c8b5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"e77c8b5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2bd687c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2bd687c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.17.0 - 08-11-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"570\" height=\"380\" src=\"https:\/\/austinapnea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Group-1272627779-1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-185\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/austinapnea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Group-1272627779-1.png 570w, https:\/\/austinapnea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Group-1272627779-1-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-765a764 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"765a764\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2f9c0b2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2f9c0b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sleep apnea is in epidemic proportions here worldwide.
