Benefits of Remote Patient Monitoring: Why Everyone Wins With RPM

Remote patient monitoring is a service that's great for providers, patients, and our healthcare system. Find out why everyone wins with RPM. One of the more substantial, recent developments in the way healthcare is delivered in the United States concerns remote patient monitoring (RPM), also referred to as remote physiologic monitoring. RPM has technically been around since the early 1970s (with its roots dating back to the 19th century!), but it's been thrown into the spotlight over the past few years thanks to the pandemic and is now experiencing rapid adoption. That comes as no surprise considering the significant and wide-spread benefits of remote patient monitoring. In a nutshell, remote patient monitoring is a way for practitioners to closely monitor a patient's chronic health conditions without requiring the patient to physically visit an organization. To deliver RPM, practitioners choose one or more devices that their qualifying patients can use outside of the facility to collect health data and then transmit that data securely back to the organization for evaluation.
