Remote Patient Monitoring
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) uses digital technologies to collect medical and other forms of health data from patients at a distance that electronically transmits that information securely to health care providers. This type of service allows a provider to conduct assessments, make recommendations to continue to track healthcare data consistently during the time between virtual or in-office visits.
Monitoring programs through RPM make it possible to collect various types of health data from the point of care, such as vital signs, weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, blood oxygen levels, heart rate, and electrocardiograms.
HITEQ has developed some extensive information on how to implement and grow an RPM program at your health center through their “Safer at Home” series.
HITEQ has also collaborated with the American Medical Association (AMA) to provide the US Blood Pressure Validated Listing (VDL) for the devices that are best suited and most financially viable for monitoring patient’s blood pressure through RPM.
