Remote Patient Monitoring

---

Remote Patient Monitoring is the ability to monitor patients via home devices over time. Using cellular-connected blood pressure monitors, pulse ox, weight scales, and glucometers, patients can record their vitals and other data in order to get a comprehensive picture of their health over time. Managing this program in-house can be logistically challenging and prevent your staff from focusing on more important daily tasks. We do all the work for you. 

Insurance carries, including Medicare, have recognized the importance and value of this practice with the addition of several CPT codes to incentivize the development of robust RPM programs. 

Our RPM services offer several benefits:

1. Continuous Monitoring: Patients can be monitored around the clock, providing a comprehensive view of their health status beyond traditional clinic visits.
2. Timely Intervention: By detecting abnormalities or fluctuations in health metrics early, our healthcare team can intervene promptly, preventing potential complications or hospitalizations.
3. Improved Patient Engagement: RPM empowers patients to take an active role in managing their health by providing them with access to their own health data and facilitating communication with their healthcare providers.
4. Enhanced Care Coordination: RPM fosters seamless communication and collaboration among healthcare providers, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive and coordinated care.

Axial manages the program at every step of the way: from patient eligibility verification to onboarding to continuous monitoring. We handle RPM between office visits so you can focus on providing the highest quality of care.
