Insurance Coverage on Vivos Appliances and Treatment Now Available to a Significant Number of Nevada Patients Previously Unable to Access Coverage

Concurrently, Vivos Implements Cost Reduction Initiatives Related to Legacy Business Model to Focus on Scaling its Medical Affiliation Distribution Model

LITTLETON, Colo., March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vivos Therapeutics, Inc. ("Vivos" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: VVOS) , a leading medical device and healthcare services company focused on the treatment of breathing-related sleep disorders and associated chronic health conditions, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), today announced that physician-owned professional entities supported by the Company’s wholly-owned management services subsidiary in Nevada have received notices of ‘in-network’ status with a number of commercial health insurance payers, along with ‘participating’ status with Medicare.

Vivos believes this major development has the potential to positively and significantly impact patient access to Vivos’ patented OSA treatments and resulting top-line revenue and overall profitability from operations in its key treatment market of Las Vegas, NV.

In-Network Insurance Coverage

The physician-owned professional practices supported by Vivos’ management services subsidiary in Nevada report ‘in-network’ status with the following health insurance payers: Medicare, TRICARE, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, Intermountain Health, Select Health, CareSource, USDOL (workman’s comp), Anthem, Aetna, Cigna, Health Plan of Nevada, HPN Medicaid, Humana, Molina, Prominence, SilverSummit, and Wellcare, among others. The listed payers collectively cover a substantial portion of the insured population in the greater Las Vegas metropolitan area, representing what Vivos believes to be a significant addressable patient population for Vivos treatment.

Kirk Huntsman , CEO of Vivos, said, “Being ‘in-network’ with these health insurance companies and ‘participating’ status with Medicare are key milestones for the physician-owned professional practices we support, with the potential to significantly impact our management services revenue as more patients gain access to our novel OSA treatments. Since our affiliation with Sleep Center of Nevada last June, we have been working diligently to achieve insurance coverage. And while further work remains to be done in this area, as not all supported providers are ‘in-network’ with all payers, these developments are highly material to our going forward plan. Equally important, for the first time, the supported practices now have adequate numbers of trained providers to handle the expected increase in demand.”

"Previously, many OSA patients who were excited about Vivos treatment as an alternative to CPAP were denied coverage by their insurance company or Medicare. Some patients paid out of pocket or with third party patient financing, but many excellent candidates for OSA treatment were simply unable to proceed due to lack of insurance coverage. The professional practices we support have thousands of previously evaluated patients who can now be contacted regarding the availability of insurance coverage for treatment. Moreover, medical referrals are expected to rise as word spreads that insurance coverage is now available to many more OSA patients seeking Vivos treatment," concluded Mr. Huntsman.

Cost Reduction Initiatives

In addition, Vivos today announced the execution of a series of cost reduction initiatives, including a reduction in force and the termination or restructuring of a number of vendor relationships. These cost reduction initiatives, which began in February 2026, relate to Vivos' legacy dental-focused distribution model. Based on annualized run-rate calculations, Vivos estimates that these initiatives will result in approximately $4 million in annual expense savings; however, actual savings may vary depending on the timing and execution of these measures. The expected increase in revenue from the supported professional practices' in-network status, coupled with these legacy cost reductions, is expected to reduce Vivos’ cash burn rate and advance its goal of becoming cash flow positive during fiscal year 2026.

About Vivos Therapeutics, Inc.

Vivos Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: VVOS) is a medical technology company focused on developing and commercializing innovative diagnostic and treatment methods for patients suffering from breathing and sleep issues arising from certain dentofacial abnormalities such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and snoring in adults. Vivos’ devices have been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for adult patients diagnosed with all severity levels of OSA and moderate-to-severe OSA in children ages 6 to 17. Vivos’ groundbreaking Complete Airway Repositioning and Expansion (CARE) devices are the only FDA 510(k) cleared technology for treating severe OSA in adults and the first to receive clearance for treating moderate to severe OSA in children.

OSA affects over 1 billion people worldwide, yet 80% or more remain undiagnosed and unaware of their condition. This chronic disorder is not just a sleep issue—it is closely linked to many serious chronic health conditions. While the medical community has made strides in treating sleep disorders, breathing and sleep health remain areas that are still not fully understood. As a result, legacy OSA treatments like CPAP are often mechanistic and fail to address the root causes of OSA.

Founded in 2016 and based in Littleton, Colorado, Vivos is working to change this. Through innovative technology, education, and acquisitions of, or commercial collaborations with, sleep healthcare providers, Vivos is empowering healthcare providers to address the complex needs of OSA patients more thoroughly.

Vivos calls the use of its appliances and protocols to treat OSA The Vivos Method , which offers a proprietary, clinically effective solution that is nonsurgical, noninvasive, and nonpharmaceutical, providing hope to allow patients to Breathe New Life .
