The Remote Monitoring Leadership Council aims to ensure high-quality RPM services are available to all patients for whom it should be the standard of care, and address policy barriers to this adoption
The Remote Monitoring Leadership Council (“the Council”) is collaborative of innovative companies operating across all 50 states, and collectively offer a large percentage of all RPM and care management services delivered to Medicare beneficiaries.
As national leaders in remote patient monitoring (RPM)
We commit to a shared set of principles to ensure the delivery of high-quality, patient-centered care and to shape the future of our industry. Recognizing the critical role RPM plays in the future of health care, we endorse these shared principles to define and uphold standards of excellence.
Policy priorities
The Council works to ensure high-quality RPM services are available to all patients for whom it should be the standard of care, elevate the industry through principles, best practices, and address policy barriers to this adoption.
- Produce and disseminate evidence demonstrating RPM’s impact on readmissions, ED visits, hypertension control, diabetes management, and total cost of care.
- Lead the conversation on elevating RPM through best practices, and policy recommendations to ensure high-quality services.
- Modernize Original Medicare payment to accurately cover care provided by RPM, setting the foundation for future tech-enabled care tools.
- Support policy developments that create new opportunities for RPM in Medicare Advantage (MA) and outcomes-based payment models.
- Engage and educate policymakers on RPM misconceptions such as the inaccurate representation of improper billing practices or other misunderstandings around appropriate use of RPM.
Why now?
The ever-growing tensions of the health care delivery system require technology-enabled tools to expand access to clinicians and health care.
The current reimbursement structure does not adequately account for the infrastructure that underlies high-quality RPM delivery involves substantial ongoing investment in platforms that capture, transmit, analyze, and present physiologic data to care teams and patients.
Without addressing this outdated structure, neither today’s RPM services nor tomorrow’s AI-enabled care will be adequately reimbursed for the true cost of delivery.
