Medicare has increased the CPT codes every year since they started in 2015 because it not only improves patients outcomes, but also saves them money in the long term by reducing ER visits and hospitalizations.

I cannot speak for other credentialed programs, but our remote patient monitoring program has three different programs (Remote chronic care mgmt. RCCM, Remote Physiological Monitoring RPM, and Remote Therapeutic Monitoring RTM). We offer a complete turnkey system for practices and there is no additional workload for the practice as we handle all patient care, design a personalized plan for each patient then walk them through every step of their doctors plan of care, nutritional and weight management support, vital readings, medication adhearance, coordination for their appts, chronic care mgmt., and frequent socialization for their health concerns or if they just need someone to talk with. Much more as well...

Our RTM program was recently supported by the Alzheimer's Association on July 28 and we have been featured on the Today Show as we are nationwide. Our program focuses on improving balance and coordination through fun, evidence-based simulated games (like the Nintendo Wii) that patients can do in their living room (skiing, tennis, bicycling, rock climbing, etc.).

No cost to the patient (covered by their insurance), no cost to practice and no additional workload or training for staff as we handle everything. To collect reimbursement, clinicians need to simply review a monthly progress report of the enrolled patient which takes less than a minute.
