Chad A. Konow; BBA, MBA
Executive Director
Chad grew up in Louisiana and later moved to Illinois as a teen. He attended college at The University of Chicago and also was privileged enough to study abroad in France for six months. Chad is an avid reader and a thrill-seeker who loves traveling, football, the arts, and, most of all, spending time with his family. Every decision made in his life has been influenced by his loving family, and he credits his daughter with making him a better person; of all his many accomplishments, she has been his proudest and most cherished.
Chad has Master’s Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. He has been in executive leadership for over 20 years. In that time, he has worked with many wonderful companies with talented teams; however, Chad always felt magnetism towards the medical field. When he first joined Midwest Center for Sleep Disorders, he was amazed at the dedication and care that the entire team had for their patients. From the office staff, the technical staff, and the medical staff, it was clear that every decision that was made was ultimately finalized with the patients’ well-being at the forefront of the process. Chad’s position has given him the ability to work with a talented team and it also allows him the opportunity to have a close relationship with the patients who visit MCSD; which is his favorite part of being a part of this group. As a previous sleep apnea sufferer and CPAP user, Chad sleeps better at night knowing that his work is having a positive impact on the community where he and his family live, and he is honored to lead a diverse team who is truly committed, in every aspect, to offering patients a Quality Life through Quality Sleep.
Lori Stasica
Patient Financial Advocate
Many patients worry about the financial side of the sleep study. MCSD is a provider with major insurance companies and many of the smaller companies also. Lori works with insurance companies and patients to take the worry out of the financial aspect of a sleep study; treating treat MCSD patients like family.
When Lori started working at Midwest Center for Sleep Disorders, she thought sleep studies were primarily for those who snored; she had no idea how in-depth this field is. From adults to pediatrics, Lori is proud to help patients coordinate their financial obligations; easing the process so they can get the specialized help needed from MCSD.

I am an experienced medical professional with over 3 years of experience in health care services. I have been a part of the Midwest Center for Sleep Disorders team for a year and I have gained a wealth of knowledge about sleep disorders and how they impact a patient’s health. I handle insurance authorizations and scheduling patients for their sleep studies. I take great pride knowing that by scheduling a patient for a study I was a part of their journey to better health and quality life. If you have any questions or need to schedule a sleep study, I will be happy to help you or get you in contact with our clinical team.
