Webinar: Remote Patient Monitoring Success in Independent Practice

The use of remote patient monitoring — i.e., remote physiologic monitoring or RPM — has surged over the past few years. It's been widely embraced by providers, patients, the federal government, and an increasing number of commercial payers. Numerous statistics show the value of RPM, and when we look at some of the more common examples of remote patient monitoring applications, it is easy how RPM is transforming the delivery of care in the United States. 

Over the last few years, remote patient monitoring (RPM), also referred to as remote physiologic monitoring, became one of the more lucrative Medicare care management programs. Using average 2024 RPM reimbursement rates, if 100 patients are enrolled in an RPM program and each receives the minimum care management services each month, that will generate annual reimbursement of nearly $113,000.

The American Medical Association (AMA) has announced the agenda for its second quarter 2024 CPT Editorial Panel meeting in May, and it includes discussion on what would be a significant and welcome expansion of remote patient monitoring (RPM) and remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) CPT codes.
