Patient Monitoring

Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)

There is an old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth well more than a pound of cure. Nowhere is this more truthful then with the population of chronic condition patients, especially those at high risk, high need, or challenged by multiple chronic conditions.

Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) enables Providers to identify and correlate behavioral events, patient adherence and biometric values as a part of a comprehensive understanding of their patient's world, needs, risks, and opportunities to proactively engage with the patient, their caregiver(s), family and loved ones - in order to help and support better health and health outcomes.

Welcome to the future of patient engagement!

So what exactly is RPM?

RPM allows patients with chronic conditions to use connected mobile devices and technology to gather and transmit their biometric health data to their PCP’s via secure care management interface (smartphone app or cellular device). This patient data can then be analyzed in real time for timely clinical interventions or reviewed upon next office visit for better disease management.

How does RPM benefit me as a Provider?

RPM provides visibility into patients’ lives outside of their scheduled appointments, which has historically been a barrier to timely and effective diagnosis and management. With patient data collected over time, care team members can manage and treat chronic conditions in a way that is timely, meaningful, and realistic to the patient’s lifestyle. The data generated through RPM can help facilitate conversations between patients and physicians around the impact of disease and response to treatment and provide opportunities to intervene more quickly when health conditions worsen.

In addition to providing care teams with better, more actionable

information earlier, RPM has been praised for engaging patients in their own care by providing them access to their own data so they can better understand the impact of their treatment and advocate for their medical needs.
