Benefits of RPM

Improves patient health, quality of life, and sense of security 

RPM enables care providers to tailor a personalized monitoring plan allowing clinicians to monitor specific medical conditions and comorbidities. The monitoring plan is composed of scheduled routine health activities, helping patient’s learn how to recognize early symptoms of an exacerbation and to self-manage. By executing health activities, patient’s come to understand the cause and effects of adopting healthier behaviors. This helps patient’s to better understand and manage signs and symptoms and to know when to reach out for help, giving them a sense of security about their condition.

Help to reduce ED visits, hospitalizations and hospital length of stay

The triage facilities identify patient’s who need help and input from a clinician, the patient-generated clinically valid data is a key part of the chain of a prevention strategy. Changes in vital signs can be indicators of a patient’s health deteriorating. With RPM vital signs are collected and monitored closely providing patient’s and clinicians with early warning indicators, allowing time to reverse any trends and prevent deterioration leading to avoidable ED visits and hospitalizations.

Provides monitoring and management of patient’s in their own home

patient’s use the technology platform to register their daily health activities following their personalized care plan. These health activities can include reviewing their vital signs and looking for signs and symptoms of deteriorating health. Health status is captured from the patient’s home and updated to the platform, providing essential information to improve clinical decision-making when clinicians adjust and optimize treatments.

Strengthens a patient’s support system

Improved communication with the patient’s circle of care, including family caregivers, helps to create a stronger support system for patient’s. By supporting family caregivers’ understanding of the patient’s care plan, this enables them to become involved actors and provide appropriate support.

Empowers patient’s to take responsibility for their own healthcare

RPM programs have shown that when patient’s are given the tools to take control of their own healthcare, they do so willingly. Provided with resources to learn more about their condition patient’s can view educational presentations and videos. Learning and repeating positive health behaviors through interactive health activities improves the understanding of their health conditions. RPM empowers patient’s to take responsibility for their own healthcare.

Why TrueCare Platform?

Benefits of Remote Patient Monitoring

There are a number of benefits to both providers and patient’s when Remote Patient Monitoring is included as part of patient care.

  • Fewer hospital readmissions and emergency department visits.Remote Patient Monitoring results in more immediate care. Potential problems are detected and can be remedied before they get bad enough to warrant a visit to the emergency room.
  • patient’s with chronic diseases can be easily monitored around-the-clock.Forty-five percent of the US population has at least one chronic disease. That is more than 133 million individuals. Chronic diseases are responsible for 1.7 million American deaths each year. Remote Patient Monitoring has been shown to be clinically effective as an early symptom-management tool and as a way to identify if a patient’s condition is deteriorating or becoming life-threatening.
  • patient’s and providers save money.Cost savings for patient’s come from fewer travel-related costs and out-of-pocket costs associated with in-person visits as well as less time missed from work. Cost savings for providers come from reduced hospital readmissions, in-person visits, nurse engagements, and emergency room visits.
  • Higher patient satisfaction.Individuals taking part in Remote Patient Monitoring (and telehealth in general) report being highly satisfied with their experiences.
  • Better care.This is clearly the most important benefit. Early detection of issues made possible through remote patient monitoring results in better health. patient’s can be more engaged with their provider, which increases the probability that they will follow health recommendations set by their provider. Furthermore, Remote Patient Monitoring (and telehealth in general) increases access to medical care in underserved areas.

What Data Can Be Tracked?

The remote-monitoring technology used by providers will vary based on the specific needs of their patient’s.

Monitoring devices can measure, record, and transmit additional healthcare data such as weight, blood pressure, pulse, blood-oxygen levels and blood glucose. Many of these data points give physicians the information they need to detect a number of potential issues. It’s enough to identify shortness of breath, fluid retention, early signs of pneumonia, and reactions to medication.

As technology evolves and demand grows from patient’s and providers, the categories of data that can be monitored from afar will continue to grow. Already there are diabetic patient’s who benefit from having their glucose levels remotely monitored, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and pacemakers can be tracked for patient’s with heart conditions. The kind of information that can be monitored can only be expected to grow.

The patient uses their personal smartphone or tablet and the Truecare Application Software will automatically pair that phone or tablet with the patient’s Truecare Bluetooth monitoring devices.
