Remote Patient Monitoring
Remote patient monitoring is a technology to enable monitoring of patients outside of conventional clinical settings, such as in the home or in a remote area, which may increase access to care and decrease healthcare delivery costs.
HOW IT WORKS
Remote patient monitoring devices must be electronically connected, which is most often accomplished via cellular networking or Bluetooth.
Benefits of RPM
- Reduced hospitalizations
- Shorter hospital stays if the patient can be discharged with a remote monitoring device to use at home.
- Fewer visits to the emergency room.
- Better health outcomes for patients
- Better preventative management for chronic conditions.
- Medicare and most insurance companies encourages practices to start RPM for the efficient and preventive care of Medicare patients for which they will reimburse practitioners for billable services.
- Remote monitoring is covered for eligible patients as remote care is reimbursed by Medicare and most insurance companies.
