FAQs

Can I join online?
To apply online, create a new account or login to your existing account. Go to “My Account, click on the “Organizations” tab and proceed with steps to apply for network membership. If you are not yet accredited, you may also begin the process to apply for a new accreditation.

Can any sleep disorders network for sleep related breathing disorders become a member of the AASM?
No. Only sleep disorders networks that are accredited by the AASM are invited to become members of the sleep medical professional network.

Our network is accredited by the AASM. Why is there no listing for our practice in the directory of accredited sleep facilities on the AASM’s website?
The searchable directory of sleep networks that appear on the AASM’s websites contains contact information for accredited sleep networks that choose to become member networks of the AASM. The directory is only one of the many benefits of becoming an accredited AASM sleep medical professional network member.

How soon after becoming a member will our listing appear in the directory of sleep networks on the AASM’s websites?
Once we have received your application it will take up to a week for your listing to appear in the online directory.

Are accredited networks allowed to use the AASM logo in promotional materials?
An AASM member logo is available for use only by fully accredited networks that also become member networks. An AASM sleep medical professional network member that is provisionally accredited may not use the logo until they have reached full accreditation.

Are there any restrictions on how an accredited member network uses the AASM logo?
Yes. Please review the AASM’s Trademark Policy to see what restrictions apply.

How do we get a copy of the AASM Network member logo?
If your network is fully accredited and a member of the AASM, please review the AASM’s Trademark Policy. You can then download an electronic copy of the logo in two formats (JPG and EPS) in the “membership documents.” of your account.

Is membership open to networks that have earned provisional accreditation?
Yes. Network membership is available to all AASM accredited networks. However, only fully accredited networks may use the AASM Accredited Member Logo in promotional materials.

Since we have more than one accredited network, do we receive a discount if each network becomes a member?
Entities that consist of multiple sleep network that are managed by the same company are eligible for corporate sleep medicine center accreditation. Please contact the AASM Accreditation Department at accreditation@aasm.org or (630) 737-9700 for more information.

Since our medical director is an AASM member, is our network considered an AASM member?
No. Network and individual memberships are different and require separate applications, and both categories of membership have their own unique benefits. Membership in one category does not mean you are considered a member of another category.
