Step 3 Sleep disorder self-screening for 50s + specialty referral guidance

Problem

45% of people in their 50s experience sleep problems (insomnia, snoring, sleep apnea) but dismiss them as normal aging. Polysomnography costs $225-$600 and requires an overnight hospital stay, which feels burdensome. People don't know which sleep issues are simply age-related and which require treatment, nor whether they should see an ENT specialist, neurologist, or psychiatrist.

Solution

A web tool that presents standardized sleep questionnaires (STOP-BANG, ISI, ESS) in accessible Korean, scoring sleep apnea risk, insomnia severity, and daytime sleepiness levels. Based on score ranges, it provides guidance on whether to monitor, improve lifestyle habits, or seek medical care, along with which specialty to visit and the conditions for insurance-covered polysomnography.

Target: Ages 50-65 with declining sleep quality over the past 6 months, whose spouse has pointed out snoring, and who experience frequent daytime drowsiness — both employed and retired

Revenue Model: Basic screening free. 4-week sleep diary + improvement program (sleep hygiene guide) at $3 Monthly Subscription. Sleep clinic appointment referral commission.
