Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a healthcare delivery method that uses digital technology to monitor patients outside traditional clinical settings, such as at home. RPM involves the use of connected medical devices-like blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meters, pulse oximeters, weight scales, and wearable sensors-to collect a wide range of physiological and health data from patients. This data is then electronically transmitted to healthcare providers for ongoing assessment and management.

Chronic Care Management (CCM)
Chronic Care Management (CCM) is a structured healthcare service designed to support individuals with two or more chronic health conditions that are expected to last at least 12 months or until the patient’s death, or that place the patient at significant risk of death, acute exacerbation, or functional decline.

Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM)
Remote Therapeutic Management (RTM) is a healthcare service that uses digital technology to remotely monitor and manage a patient’s therapy, particularly for chronic conditions affecting the musculoskeletal or respiratory systems. The primary focus of RTM is on collecting and assessing non-physiological patient data-such as symptoms, therapy adherence, medication response, and self-reported outcomes-rather than physiological metrics like blood pressure or glucose levels.
