What to Expect from the On-Demand Sleep Report for Your Doctor?
Millions of Americans suffer from undiagnosed sleep issues. Epidemiological data from The Sleep Index showed for instance that while 25 percent of the population has sleep apnea, only 12% are diagnosed, leaving 13% fending for themselves for treatment. Other common sleep disorders like insomnia and restless leg syndrome are also likely to go untreated. SleepScore and the experts at SleepScore Labs recognize that it needs to be easier to understand if you suffer from symptoms of these disorders, and how to take proactive steps to treat the issues with the help of your physician. The Sleep Report for Your Doctor is the next step to understanding your sleep behavior and allowing your physician to prescribe treatment options. We’ll outline what the reports include, what you should expect from them, and the benefits of these reports.
What’s Inside of this Report?
The Report for Your Doctor can be provided on demand for Premium SleepScore users. The on-demand Report for Your Doctor can be found in the Settings of your SleepScore app, under the Premium Access, titled Sleep Report for Your Doctor.

This document provides detailed insights into the last 30 nights of your recorded sleep with SleepScore.
You’ll see data on your SleepScore, Total Sleep Time, Number of Awakenings, and other sleep metrics from the past 30 nights. The report then drills down further, providing deeper dives into your unique sleep patterns. The more often you track your sleep in a given 30-day period, the more nights will be covered and the more precise your data will be. This report can be accessed at any time, so it’s always readily available to you. This summary was designed by sleep advisors and is structured similarly to a report you might receive if you did a study in an overnight sleep lab.
