Rev Up Your Revenue
with Remote Patient
Monitoring
Comprehensive View of Patient’s Health: As great as in-office testing is, it doesn’t show you the whole picture. With RPM, you can monitor your patient’s health in real-time and collect more data that allows you to develop a better, comprehensive image of your patient’s disease progression.
Real-Time Data: As you treat your patients, much of the information you get is based on their records and recollections. With the real-time data you get from RPM, you can identify when your patient’s disease flares up and better identify triggers in their every-day life.
Better Healthcare: The goal of every provider is to give patients the best care possible. With RPM, you are increasing data collection and getting a comprehensive picture of your patient’s disease. This will allow you to create more effective treatment plans based on data collected over a longer period of time.
Easier for Specialists: For many specialists, chronic illness is complex and challenging, especially on a day-to-day basis. With RPM, you can have the information you need to better treat your more unique cases.
Comfort and Reassurance: All patients want the same thing: health and happiness. But as they are treated, it can feel discouraging when they can’t pinpoint exact triggers for their disease. With RPM, your patients will have the comfort and reassurance that they are getting the best healthcare possible and that nothing will fall through the cracks.
Who RPM Is For
RPM can benefit a wide range of patients. In any
situation where more data and monitoring would
help you to treat an illness or condition, RPM is a
great fit. There are three types of patients that it
is especially beneficial to:
● Chronic illness patients
● Patients over the age of 50
● Patients with multiple conditions
How RPM Works
1. First, your patient will be referred for RPM by their provider. This can happen for a variety of reasons, but generally happens when the patient is living with a condition that would benefit from daily monitoring.
2. Next, insurance coverage is discussed. We will find the level of coverage that each patient has so that RPM can remain a beneficial treatment option, rather than becoming a financial burden.
3. After insurance is figured out, the patient will be sent their RPM consent forms. Along with providing their consent to be monitored on daily basis, these forms will also help them identify their goals for their RPM experience.
4. With goals and consent secured, the patient is set up with a monitoring device. This will be decided with their provider and it will be based on the type of information the provider wants to monitor, as well as the specific conditions the patient is living with.
5. Finally, they simply use the monitoring device. They are encouraged to interact with the health coaches, especially in the critical first month. Health coaches will be checking in with the patient at regular intervals. Approximately 40 minutes of interaction time throughout the month is typical.
Why Your Clinic Needs RPM
Increase Monthly Revenue
Data shows monthly revenue can increase by
about $20,000 dollars over the course of a year.
Improve Patient Loyalty
Your patients want to feel cared for. One way of
helping them to feel secure in your care is with
RPM. We have found that patients tend to perceive
a higher level of care when RPM is included in their
treatment plan.
Better Informed Physicians
As the physicians collect more information on a
patient’s progress with their disease, they can
better treat the condition. This is all possible
without the physicians dedicating their precious
time to phone calls, because the main source of
contact is the team of health coaches.
More Proactive, Informed Approach
To have the best chances of success, proactivity
and information are crucial. These are hallmarks
of RPM. It’s a way of staying proactive about the
day-to-day experience of your patients and the
additional data collected leads to an informed
approach.
Higher Quality Office Visits
With more information available at the time of the
appointment, it will lead to a more productive
face-to-face interaction. It can also facilitate the
smooth flow of conversation as both parties have
access to the data beforehand.
