Read What Your Colleagues Are Saying About The Pass Machine Sleep Medicine Board Review
"The Sleep Medicine course is thorough and definitely helped me pass my boards. I strongly recommend this course."
Kevin Patel, MD, Tampa, FL
"First time using The Pass Machine. Recommended and found it very helpful. Definitely helpful and lectures were high yield. Strongly recommend it.!!!!!"
Chandar Abboy, MD, Charlotte, NC
"The Sleep Medicine Board Review course delivers concise information in a very effective manner, emphasizing key information points. User friendly with mobile device options for busy work schedules."
Raheela Pirzada, MD, Pittsburgh, PA
"I needed an online review course for the Sleep Medicine recertification examination. The Pass Machine was comprehensive and gave me the information I needed to pass the board exam. The course also helped me find my weaknesses allowing me time to study other materials to supplement the course. My score was above average and I feel that the Pass Machine helped me achieve the high score. A very helpful feature for me was the style of asking a question and then answering it with a lecture. I highly recommend this program to my colleagues."
Noel Lopez, MD, McAllen, TX
"The course was excellent, most especially the exam section of the course. I did all of these questions and then of course reviewed the answers and did this multiple times during my preparation. So much of the re-certification sleep board exam was set up the same way. I felt for the most part very comfortable with my answers and many of the board questions had been very nearly prepared the same on this prep course. I would recommend this to anyone preparing for the sleep medicine boards, either as a first-time examinee or for the recertification as in my case. This was particularly important for me during this time of covid lock-down because access to review courses, as I had done with my initial examination, was limited. I am a primary otolaryngologist and do sleep medicine as an addition to my practice and came in late to sleep medicine in my career; this course helped me immensely with the recertification process. Many thanks to your team for this."
Michael Smith, MD, PhD, Charleston, IL
"The Pass Machine is superb. I am sure it helped me to pass my Boards in Sleep Medicine. I will look forward to using The Pass Machine for my Pulmonary Boards as well."
Manjeshwar Prabhu, MD, Decatur, IL
"The course material was thorough and detailed, covering the material questioned on the exam. I was able to listen to lectures on my runs and it was easy to do questions on my smartphone or laptop. Would definitely recommend this product."
David Oelberg, MD, Pittsfield, MA
“I took the Sleep Medicine review after studying on my own for three months. Much (but certainly not all) of the material was a review. However; the review was very consolidated, information rich and included several pearls that were helpful for the test. Thank you for providing the service- it was one of the factors that got me a PASS!”
Wayne Colin, MD, DMD
“Really enjoyed the Sleep Medicine Board Review Course – very relevant materials and friendly, helpful speakers. Have had other Sleep talks and courses, and this was much better. Some very good, very helpful drawings to help me remember how to treat, understand phase shift, etc.”
Donald Johnson, MD, Wichita Falls, TX
“Sleep Medicine has a lot of topics that can be difficult to understand and remember. This course covered most of the difficult and basic ones in a way that makes it easy to understand and remember. The teaching faculty did a good job.”
Basma Ricaurte, MD, West Lake, OH
“The material covered in the video/audio course was definitely what was needed for the sleep board. All of the details were covered and it seemed like the questions were written by the lecturers in the course.”
Maria Dolgovina, MD, Forest Hills, NY
“You have distilled and organized the key aspects of an important and rapidly growing field of medicine into coherently presented lectures. Excellent job!”

FAQs – The Pass Machine Sleep Medicine Board Review
Is The Pass Machine different from other board reviews?
Yes, in three main ways:
1. The Pass Machine board review is the most comprehensive option. More than just a Question Bank of practice questions, each course includes in-depth lectures in a familiar classroom setting presented by expert faculty. This means you get a topic-by-topic review of exactly what’s on the board exam in much greater detail than what you can get from QBank answer explanations.
2. Because the physician’s schedule is typically a hectic one, The Pass Machine is optimized for on-the-go review. Components such as the audio-only lecture option, iOS and Android app for mobile review, and offline access capability, and a fully illustrated board-mapped study guide make The Pass Machine review easy to incorporate at any point your daily routine.
3. The Triple Trust Guarantee not only gives you a full refund of your paid tuition* if you don’t pass the exam the first time after taking the course, but it also gives you an extra 10% and a free subscription renewal. This unprecedented guarantee serves to assure you of the confidence we have that The Pass Machine content is exceptional.
*Tuition is defined as the amount you paid for your base course, and does not include optional course add-ons, such as purchase of online access extensions, and/or the live course attendance option (where available). If any promotional items, such as gift cards, are included with your purchase, the value of that promotional item will be deducted from your tuition.
Who produces The Pass Machine Courses? Where do you get your faculty?
The Pass Machine board review courses are produced by American Physician Institute for Advanced Professional Studies, LLC (API). API conducts dozens of courses and trains thousands of physicians each year to pass their boards and stay up to date in their fields. Every single one of American Physician Institute‘s educational courses has full editorial independence, is free of pharmaceutical and industry sponsorship and is backed by an unbeatable guarantee. Because of its reputation for excellence, American Physician Institute is able to enlist many of the top faculty from the best universities, teaching hospitals and research facilities in the country to provide you with Category 1 CME educational activities.
Do you provide board review for other medical specialties?
Yes! In fact, we provide preparation for dozens of other specialty and subspecialty board exams. Check out www.AmericanPhysician.com for the full list.
Is it likely that my employer will cover my tuition?
Because all The Pass Machine courses are approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, it is likely that your tuition will be reimbursed. You may be surprised at how many residency and fellowship training programs, group practices, and other employers pay for or reimburse you for such Category 1 educational activities. After all, it’s in everyone’s best interests to have you board certified. It really pays to ask your training director, medical director, or administrator if you are eligible because some training programs and employers do pay for board exam training. And, if you work for the Federal Government, American Physician Institute is a certified business in the CCR database and can accept government checks and credit cards.
Does The Pass Machine offer any free board review resources?
Yes! Start with our Medical Board Review Blog. There are general articles featuring board prep tips, and articles on board prep that are more board specific.
What is your Sam.gov Unique Entity ID?
American Physician Institute’s Unique Entity ID is LQWHFPP2KLB8.
Can I get a discount off course tuition?

Board Exam Results and the Triple Trust Guarantee
Is The Pass Machine Sleep Medicine review pass-guaranteed?
Yes, all full courses are pass-guaranteed, and backed by our Triple Trust Guarantee. At any time, you can view the Triple Trust Guarantee Terms & Conditions.
What does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover?
If you purchase a course with a “Triple Trust Guarantee” and fail the board exam for which this course is designed, API will issue a 100% refund of your paid tuition*, plus an additional 10%, plus free subscription renewal. The guarantee expires in the event the exam for which this course is designed is no longer offered by the certifying board.
* Tuition is defined as the amount you paid for your base course, and does not include optional course add-ons, such as purchase of online access extensions, and/or the live course attendance option (where available). If any promotional items, such as gift cards, are included with your purchase, the value of that promotional item will be deducted from your tuition.
The Triple Trust Guarantee sounds too good to be true—is it for real?
Yes, it’s completely real. Rest assured, API has always honored its guarantees and always will. The Triple Trust Guarantee is API’s way of demonstrating that it’s just as invested in your success as you are. After all, if you fail your board exam, API will pay a penalty. API will refund your course tuition in full, provide you with a bonus, and provide you with free subscription renewal. The guarantee ensures API doesn’t get paid for effort, only for passing results.
Does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover non-tuition course options and upgrades?
No. Course options and upgrades are non-tuition related. Therefore, these fees are not included in any guarantee-related refund payment made under the terms of the Triple Trust Guarantee.
What should I do if I don’t pass my board exam?
First, it’s important to remember that a non-passing result is not necessarily a reflection on your abilities as a physician. The way the ABIM tests you is not the same as the many ways you’re “tested” as a practicing physician. Check out this reassuring video from Dr. Jack - What To Do If You Fail Your Board Exam https://www.thepassmachine.com//video-what-to-do-fail-your-board-exam/
More to the point, American Physician Institute can work with you to help you get over this professional hurdle. Give us a call!
I didn’t pass my board exam. How do I activate my course guarantee?
To activate your guarantee, you must notify American Physician of your failure to pass your board exam and submit a copy of your exam notification and scores. To be eligible for the refund portion of the guarantee you must submit your documents within 45 days of the date of your exam fail notification. To notify American Physician and submit your documents, go to your course dashboard, and click on the "Guarantee" tab. Complete the form and attach your exam notification and scores.
