Telemedicine & Remote Patient Monitoring Considerations
Providing telemedicine comes with a variety of benefits that can save you and your organization both time and money. The average savings for a
single employee is around $300, according to the American Medical Association (AMA).
Eliminate costly in-person evaluations to monitor participants’ vital signs by remotely collecting validated digital health data. Review data more
quickly and frequently to verify whether participants are responding positively or negatively to the drug.
Monitoring programs can also help keep people healthy, allow older and disabled individuals to live at home longer and avoid having to move
into skilled nursing facilities. RPM can also serve to reduce the number of hospitalizations, readmissions, and lengths of stay in hospitals—all of
which help improve quality of life and contain costs.

● SIMPLICITY - Standardization of data: Different manufacturers utilize their own nomenclature for data points, such as steps, strides, paces, etc.
We standardize all of these into a single data point (in this case, steps) so that as we add devices, the data points will remain the same on your
end. In addition, we manage the overall relationship for you including setting up accounts, changes to APIs, and support.
● AUTOMATED ACTIONABLE DATA - Rules engine: Our rules engine allows you to define thresholds for min/max readings, deviations from the
moving average, and frequency of readings. These triggers may be mapped to push, SMS, or email alerts on your end to remind a patient to
submit a reading, alert clinicians of changes in condition, and many others. I have many strategies I am happy to discuss for tracking everything
from diabetes and heart conditions to behavioral health and overall wellness.
● FLEXIBILITY - Over 350 devices (and counting): This will drive your BYOD approach and drastically reduce your efforts for adding new devices
in the future since we will do it for you.

Greater access to practitioners: By empowering them to connect digitally with their healthcare professionals,
patients can overcome one of the biggest challenges they face—access to care. Whether you’re located an hour
from the nearest doctor or you simply struggle with wait times in a crowded hospital setting, RPM systems
alleviate the dilemma. RPM solutions empower patients to look for doctors in any location, leaving them
unencumbered by the limitations of regional facilities.
 
Reduce logistical limitations: Just getting to a doctor’s office can be a difficult process. Taking time off work, or
taking your children out of school, can be all but impossible. Then add on the cost of transportation, lab tests and
other travel considerations. For those with medical conditions that limit ambulation, this can be even more
challenging. Leveraging an RPM system will allow patients to get the care they need from the comfort of their own
home, reducing costs and other logistical limitations.
 
Early detection for improved outcomes: Time is of the essence when it comes to patient outcomes. Remote
patient monitoring can improve patient outcomes by allowing for continued monitoring that augments
practitioners’ ability to preempt serious issues. This can be useful for diagnoses, as well as making alterations
throughout the course of treatment. This can be especially useful for patients making medication changes, as they’ll
be able to report any side effects and adjust quickly if need be.
 
Early detection in this instance can also refer to connected medical devices. If these devices start to act up, early
detection capability is once more indispensable.
 
Enhanced autonomy: Remote patient monitoring allows individuals to take greater control over their own
course of treatment. From alerts to remain compliant with prescriptions, to the ability to educate and inform
themselves with the data in their RPM system, patients that can stay engaged and active in their own care will have
a chance to maximize the results of their program.

  • 1.
  • 2. 1. Better Access to Health Care 2. Cost Effective 3. Reduced Absenteeism 4. Convenience 5. Demand Amongst Millennials Telemedicine & Remote Patient Monitoring Considerations Providing telemedicine comes with a variety of benefits that can save you and your organization both time and money. The average savings for a single employee is around $300, according to the American Medical Association (AMA). Eliminate costly in-person evaluations to monitor participants’ vital signs by remotely collecting validated digital health data. Review data more quickly and frequently to verify whether participants are responding positively or negatively to the drug. Monitoring programs can also help keep people healthy, allow older and disabled individuals to live at home longer and avoid having to move into skilled nursing facilities. RPM can also serve to reduce the number of hospitalizations, readmissions, and lengths of stay in hospitals—all of which help improve quality of life and contain costs. Use Wearables for Remote Monitoring

In addition, we manage the overall relationship for you including setting up accounts, changes to APIs, and support. ● AUTOMATED ACTIONABLE DATA - Rules engine: Our rules engine allows you to define thresholds for min/max readings, deviations from the moving average, and frequency of readings. These triggers may be mapped to push, SMS, or email alerts on your end to remind a patient to submit a reading, alert clinicians of changes in condition, and many others. I have many strategies I am happy to discuss for tracking everything from diabetes and heart conditions to behavioral health and overall wellness. ● FLEXIBILITY - Over 350 devices (and counting): This will drive your BYOD approach and drastically reduce your efforts for adding new devices in the future since we will do it for you.

  • 23. Greater access to practitioners: By empowering them to connect digitally with their healthcare professionals, patients can overcome one of the biggest challenges they face—access to care. Whether you’re located an hour from the nearest doctor or you simply struggle with wait times in a crowded hospital setting, RPM systems alleviate the dilemma. RPM solutions empower patients to look for doctors in any location, leaving them unencumbered by the limitations of regional facilities.   Reduce logistical limitations: Just getting to a doctor’s office can be a difficult process. Taking time off work, or taking your children out of school, can be all but impossible. Then add on the cost of transportation, lab tests and other travel considerations. For those with medical conditions that limit ambulation, this can be even more challenging. Leveraging an RPM system will allow patients to get the care they need from the comfort of their own home, reducing costs and other logistical limitations.   Early detection for improved outcomes: Time is of the essence when it comes to patient outcomes. Remote patient monitoring can improve patient outcomes by allowing for continued monitoring that augments practitioners’ ability to preempt serious issues. This can be useful for diagnoses, as well as making alterations throughout the course of treatment. This can be especially useful for patients making medication changes, as they’ll be able to report any side effects and adjust quickly if need be.   Early detection in this instance can also refer to connected medical devices. If these devices start to act up, early detection capability is once more indispensable.   Enhanced autonomy: Remote patient monitoring allows individuals to take greater control over their own course of treatment. From alerts to remain compliant with prescriptions, to the ability to educate and inform themselves with the data in their RPM system, patients that can stay engaged and active in their own care will have a chance to maximize the results of their program. The Benefits of Remote Patient Monitoring
