Solutions for Better Care

Remote Patient Monitoring is a new Medicare covered service that allows our Practice to stay connected to you between visits. We believe this service would be beneficial to you, however you have the option to participate or not

We provide you with device like a blood pressure cuff or glucometer that is connected to a software platform. When you use the device, your readings are automatically uploaded into the software platform and analyzed to determine if your vitals are normal or not. You are assigned a health coach who receives alerts if your readings are outside of the normal range. Depending on factors, your care coach may be in touch with you to determine if contact by our office is needed or not.

Since this is a covered service by Medicare there is no cost to you for the device, monitoring service and health coach monitoring and connection. Since it is considered a “part B” service, there may be a coinsurance that you would be responsible for. That coinsurance may range from $8 to $20 per month.

We believe having the ability to stay connected to youbetween visits, have early risk detection that we can proactively address and receiving real-time data from you that can assist us better care for you provides tremendous value compared to the costs.
