With that, is there a patient population that you feel is underserved currently?
19:20
I think sleep apnea is fairly underserved.
19:22
I mean, every time I see a statistic on, I mean, I can't, I can never put a number to it, but I remember always being surprised by the amount of, you know, what they suspect is undiagnosed sleep apnea or sleep disorder breathing or, you know, airway restrictive or upper airway restrictive syndrome, things like that.
19:37
You know, where I really see is a lot of the underserved populations really, you know, almost seems geographical too.
19:43
know and that's kind of been the biggest thing especially even in atlanta in our in our community from the north side to the south side getting onto the rural areas you can go you know i think in our area i feel like you could throw a rock and hit another ent office whereas you go 25 30 miles outside of the outside of the city and you can't find one for it seems like 20 30 miles why do you think sleep apnea is under diagnosed like that i think there's a few different things i think for one i mean the After effects are kind of insidious.

So, you know, I'll get referrals from PCPs and cardiologists because the patients have refractory hypertension to their medication.
20:17
They're not sure why, or they have refractory AFib despite being on, you know, leconide or whatever medications they're using for that.
21:14
Yeah.
