It’s official: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) 2019 fee schedule is in effect as of January 1, 2019, bringing with it three new CPT codes that allow for expanded reimbursement for remote care services.
As we enter yet another new year fraught with uncertainty for the healthcare industry, one aspect, at least, seems certain: As 2019 dawns, the potential of virtual reality in healthcare has never been greater — or more urgent, in the face of spending that, while moderated a bit from recent years, is still ballooned by general wastefulness and unnecessary costs.
2018 was a historic year for telehealth and remote patient monitoring (RPM), as a series of developments played out that helped extend these important care delivery services to more patients than ever before. As government agencies like the CMS and VA expanded access to telehealth towards the goal of extending care into rural areas, industry leaders like Care Innovations® announced a series of breakthroughs with exciting implications for the years to come.
There’s no doubt that the healthcare industry is shifting inexorably from its traditional fee-for-service foundations to a more value-based model — a move that experts say will proceed regardless of the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the Affordable Care Act. And emerging as a key way to usher in that change is population health analytics, which providers are embracing as a means to offset the risk transferred to them by new guidelines from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

A persistent fear (and misperception) about remote patient management (RPM) is that the technology will be rejected as too intimidating by both patients and clinicians. On the contrary: Just as evidence is increasingly revealing that patients are eager to leverage well-designed RPM technology to take the betterment of their health into their own hands, so too are clinicians shown to be embracing the potential of RPM to better engage with patients and improve their own day-to-day work regimen. Better still, empowering clinicians to engage with RPM — i.e., getting them set up within a new system — is both simple and straightforward, as our experts explain in this video.

Should remote patient management (RPM) be utilized for short-term or long-term episodes of care? The answer can be both, depending on your organization’s (and your patients’) specific needs. “I’ve seen RPM used very successfully in shorter-term, 30-day episodes of care that might be in a post-acute setting, and also in a home health setting where you’re transitioning a patient to self-management,” says Bryan Pruden, Chief Financial Officer for Care Innovations®, in this brief video. Regarding long-term episodes, Bryan also describes how RPM can be successfully implemented to help diabetic populations manager their conditions (as one example).

How long can you expect to wait between the time you sign a contract to implement a remote patient management (RPM) program, and the time in which the program is fully up and running? Although there’s no single, cut-and-dried answer to this question, there are a variety of factors that can clue you into what to anticipate. As our RPM Academy telehealth experts explain in this brief video, these considerations include whether you’re integrating the program into your existing EMR system (and to what extent), whether you’re using new or pre-existing clinical content, whether you want to employ a pilot program, as well as a few other important questions.
