GLP-1 Evaluation

At Appiia, GLP-1 medication is part of a physician-guided plan for patients whose weight and sleep apnea are clinically connected — not a standalone weight-loss service. Here's how the evaluation works.

What the evaluation involves

A GLP-1 evaluation begins with your sleep and medical history, a review of your weight and related health, and — where appropriate — confirmation of an obstructive sleep apnea diagnosis. Your physician determines whether GLP-1 treatment fits your situation.

Who may qualify

  • A documented diagnosis of moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea
  • A qualifying BMI, considered alongside your overall health
  • Commitment to physician follow-up and ongoing monitoring

A physician-guided plan

Because a diagnosis often comes first, many patients begin with home sleep apnea testing. From there, GLP-1 treatment is coordinated as part of comprehensive care — see the full picture on weight management and sleep.
