Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)

RPM stands for Remote Patient Monitoring. It involves the use of technology to monitor patients' health remotely, outside of traditional healthcare settings like hospitals or clinics. This technology allows healthcare providers to collect medical data from patients in real-time, often using devices. RPM enables continuous monitoring of vital signs, symptoms, and other health metrics, allowing for timely interventions and improved management of chronic conditions.

• Patient Onboarding - Coordinate patient enrollment, assist with device setup, and provide education on the purpose, benefits, and usage of remote monitoring technology.

• Data Management - Oversee the collection, transmission, and storage of patient data generated by remote monitoring devices.
• Monitoring and Analysis - Monitor patient data collected through remote monitoring devices and software platforms. Analyze trends, identify abnormalities or significant changes in patient health status, and escalate issues to appropriate healthcare providers for intervention.
• Patient Engagement - Develop strategies to engage and motivate patients to actively participate in remote monitoring programs. Provide ongoing support, encouragement, and education to patients to promote adherence to monitoring protocols and healthy behaviors.
• Quality Assurance - Conduct regular quality checks and audits of remote patient monitoring data and processes to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with established protocols and guidelines.
• Documentation - Ensure that documentation is entered into electronic health records or other documentation systems in a timely and organized manner.
