MedBridge Healthcare

What MedBridge Healthcare does

MedBridge Healthcare (MedBridge LLC) is a US-based, privately held provider of integrated sleep care management services, founded in 2004 and headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina. The company operates 130+ sleep diagnostic centers across 21 states through wholly-owned subsidiary brands SleepWorks, Precision Diagnostic Services, and Sleep Services of America, and performs over 70,000 sleep diagnostic procedures annually. Its core offerings fall into two product lines: outsourced Sleep Lab Management Services for hospitals and healthcare systems (delivered à-la-carte, covering diagnostic equipment, clinical staffing, scheduling, therapy coordination, and operations management) and Home Sleep Apnea Testing (HSAT) shipped directly to patients using Respironics NightOne, WatchPAT, and ResMed ApneaLink Air devices. Supplemental programs include a Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (30-day post-discharge monitoring for CHF/COPD patients with at-risk outcome-based pricing), Sleep Research Services for academic and device manufacturer partners, PAP Therapy Coordination, and a newer telehealth-led Integrated Sleep Care program.

The underlying technology is a HIPAA-compliant platform that integrates device APIs for remote patient monitoring (heart rate, blood pressure, sleep patterns), connects with Somnoware for sleep study management and LabRetriever for clinical support, and provides outcome and compliance reporting across the patient journey. MedBridge monetizes primarily through professional services and managed services fees under à-la-carte or multi-year contracts with hospitals, complemented by direct-to-consumer HSAT orders, pay-as-you-go DTC billing, and channel partnerships with platforms such as American TelePhysicians (CURA4U), collaboratehealth, Onera Health, and Premise Health. It targets hospitals and healthcare systems as the primary segment, with secondary segments in medical academic institutions, high-risk patient populations (CHF/COPD), technology and device manufacturers, and direct consumers. The company is led by President Steve Feldman, Chief Development Officer John Mathias, and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Seema Khosla, and operates additional offices in Fargo (IT/support), Lone Tree, Glen Burnie, and Melbourne (the latter three through ReactDx for cardiac monitoring).
