description Insomnia is a health disorder caused by a disturbance in the continuity of sleep which causes serious problems for sufferers in carrying out daily activities. The prevalence of chronic insomnia sufferers is increasing in urban city life due to lifestyle and socio-economic conditions in developing countries. Currently, the de facto method to assess sleep disorder is using the Polysomnography device. However, the Polysomnography device is expensive and cumbersome, with the lack availability of device in healthcare services. This results in access limitation of treatment for the patient due to the limited number of devices. Patients in distance from health service should travel which increase time for diagnosis and high cost. Therefore, this study aims to create a solution to increase patient access to insomnia treatment. A new proposed framework could overcome problems in monitoring and diagnosing insomnia disorder. Patients at distance could receive similar performance from specialist as if they come to the hospital.
