VGM Collaborates with Resmed to Expand Sleep Therapy Support for HME Providers

Published in Member Communities on June 05, 2026

VGM Collaborates with Resmed to Expand Sleep Therapy Support for HME Providers Collaboration brings together innovative, connected sleep health tools, home-based diagnostic support, and adherence resources to help providers streamline care and improve patient access.

VGM & Associates has launched an initiative with Resmed, the leading health technology company focused on sleep, breathing and care delivered in the home, to help home medical equipment (HME) providers strengthen and grow their sleep therapy programs. By combining VGM’s expanding Total Sleep Solutions offering with Resmed’s innovative connected sleep-health capabilities, VGM and Resmed together create a more connected path from diagnosis to long-term therapy adherence. 

The collaboration brings together VGM’s member community and category expertise with Resmed’s health technology portfolio to help providers move patients into therapy faster, improve care coordination, and support stronger long-term outcomes. The initiative is focused on reducing fragmentation in the sleep pathway, where delays in testing and inconsistent workflows have limited access to therapy and ultimately slowed access to care for patients.  

As demand grows for home-based diagnostics and more efficient patient engagement, the collaboration reflects a shared commitment to helping providers adapt to a rapidly evolving sleep care landscape. For HME providers, that means broader access to solutions that can reduce operational bottlenecks, simplify workflows, and improve the experience for patients and referral sources.  

“At VGM, we believe if we do not step forward to help solve this, the system will continue to evolve without providers at the center. That is not acceptable. This is our opportunity to lead,” said Lindy Tentinger, President of VGM & Associates.  

“Our work with Resmed is about more than a collaboration. It is about reducing friction in how care is delivered so providers can scale and patients can get treatment faster. By aligning with Resmed, we are expanding access to solutions that support member growth, help improve patient outcomes, and remove barriers to care.”  

“HMEs are central to how patients access and stay in sleep therapy, and Resmed is committed to supporting their success,” said Jeff Haley, Vice President of Sales, Americas at Resmed. “VGM brings deep reach into the HME community, and together we’re helping ensure more providers have the innovation and resources they need to help patients succeed on therapy.” 

Through this engagement, VGM members will gain access to resources that help them build more connected sleep programs that support patient care. 

The initiative is intended to improve access to diagnosis and long-term therapy support, help reduce testing bottlenecks, and accelerate time to therapy, which supports adherence and continuity of care. Together, these solutions help providers address critical needs across the patient care continuum. 

Resmed brings innovation across the sleep care pathway with solutions that help providers diagnose, treat and support patients more efficiently. 

VGM & Associates will continue to support a strong multi-vendor ecosystem within the sleep and respiratory category, ensuring providers maintain the flexibility to choose solutions that best meet their patients’ needs.  

“At VGM, we believe innovation delivers the greatest value when it reaches patients,” Tentinger said. “Our collaboration with Resmed brings together Resmed’s innovation and our member community to help remove barriers to care and empower the HME community to do what they do best: care for patients.”  

As sleep care continues to shift toward home-based diagnostics, connected therapy, and more digital engagement throughout the patient journey, VGM & Associates and Resmed are helping providers respond with complementary capabilities built for today and tomorrow’s care environments.
