Zzoma Positional Therapy for OSA Insurance Coverage
Sleep Specialists, LLC (DBA 2Z Medical) announces that Zzoma, a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP therapy for mild to moderate positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), may be covered by many insurance plans. Zzoma is an FDA-cleared device that gently encourages users to sleep on their side, preventing airway obstruction and improving sleep quality. This innovative solution offers a mask-free alternative to treating positional OSA.
Significant Need for Positional Therapy:
Over 1 billion people globally may have OSA, and a significant portion may benefit from positional therapy:
- Up to 50% of patients diagnosed with mild OSA
- 20% of moderate OSA patients
- 7% of severe OSA patients*
Over 1,800 physicians and 1,300 sleep centers in the United States prescribe Zzoma, demonstrating its value in treating OSA patients.
Insurance Coverage:
Many insurance plans may cover Zzoma for “positional OSA therapy” when prescribed with the appropriate diagnosis code ICD 10 Code – G47.33. Zzoma has been assigned HCPCS code E0190. Patients are strongly encouraged to contact their insurance provider to verify their specific plan’s coverage.
Confirmed Coverage:
Zzoma is covered by leading insurance providers, including:
- Jefferson Health Plans in Pennsylvania and NJ
- Medical Mutual of Ohio
- BlueCross and BlueShield Federal Employee Program (FEP)
Benefits of Zzoma:
- Comfortable: Zzoma is a comfortable, easy-to-use device that allows patients to sleep on their own pillow without a CPAP mask.
- Effective: Zzoma is clinically proven to be an effective treatment for positional OSA.
- Affordable: Zzoma is an affordable alternative to CPAP therapy. It may be covered by insurance. Even without insurance coverage, the total out-of-pocket cost is generally less than the cost of CPAP therapy.
How to Get Zzoma:
Ask your doctor if Zzoma is right for you.
