Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is a healthcare service that allows patients to use medical devices at home to collect health data—such as blood pressure, blood sugar, weight, or oxygen levels—which is securely transmitted to healthcare providers for ongoing monitoring and clinical decision-making.
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a form of digital health and telehealth that enables continuous tracking of a patient’s health outside traditional in-person visits.
In healthcare, RPM is used to extend care beyond the clinic or hospital, helping providers monitor patients remotely, manage chronic diseases, detect early warning signs, and reduce hospital admissions.
Remote patient monitoring works through the following steps:
A healthcare provider enrolls an eligible patient
The patient receives an approved monitoring device
The patient records health readings at home
Data is automatically transmitted to a secure system
The care team reviews trends and responds when needed
RPM works by combining medical devices, secure data transmission, and clinical review to ensure patients receive continuous care while remaining at home.
Remote patient monitoring is important because it:
Detects health problems earlier
Improves chronic disease management
Reduces emergency room visits
Decreases hospital readmissions
Enhances patient safety and convenience
RPM enables proactive care, prevents complications, and supports long-term health outcomes while easing strain on healthcare systems.
Remote patient monitoring is used for:
Hypertension (blood pressure)
Diabetes
Heart disease and heart failure
COPD and asthma
Weight and obesity management
Post-surgical and post-hospital recovery
A remote patient monitoring system includes:
Medical monitoring devices
Data transmission technology (cellular, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi)
A secure software platform
A clinician dashboard for review
Alerts and care workflows
Common RPM devices include:
Blood pressure monitors
Blood glucose meters
Pulse oximeters
Digital weight scales
Patients qualify for RPM if:
A provider determines monitoring is medically necessary
The patient has a chronic or acute medical condition
The patient can use the device independently or with assistance
Benefits of RPM include:
Early detection of health changes
Better disease control
Reduced hospitalizations
Improved patient engagement
Increased access to care
RPM allows healthcare providers to deliver continuous, preventive, and patient-centered care while improving efficiency and reducing costs.
Remote patient monitoring began in the 1990s as part of early telemedicine programs and expanded significantly with advances in wireless technology, digital health platforms, and insurance coverage.
Billing for RPM typically includes:
Device setup and patient education
Ongoing device supply and data transmission
Clinical staff or provider time reviewing data and communicating with patients
Billing rules depend on payer requirements and documentation standards.
RPM billing requires:
Proper patient consent
Eligible device usage
Required number of monitoring days
Documented clinical interaction
The cost of RPM varies based on:
Insurance coverage
Copays and deductibles
Type of device used
RPM is generally far more cost-effective than repeated in-person visits or hospital stays.
For insured patients, RPM costs are typically low and follow standard outpatient cost-sharing rules. For healthcare systems, RPM reduces overall care costs by preventing complications.
Remote patient monitoring accreditation is provided by organizations such as:
URAC
The Joint Commission (Telehealth Accreditation)
Implementing RPM includes:
Identifying eligible patients
Selecting approved devices and platforms
Obtaining patient consent
Educating patients
Establishing monitoring and escalation protocols
Documenting and billing correctly
