PhyNet remote patient monitoring (RPM) program is designed by which technology is used to enable monitoring of patients outside of conventional clinical settings, such as in the home or in a remote area. Monitoring has proven to dramatically increase patient engagement (self-awareness and management of chronic disease) and decrease hospitalization and ER visits.
RPM care teams monitor physiological reading in realtime. Using RPM software, non-compliance, and out-of-parameter data provide alerts that can be acted upon. Virtual check-ins and calls can be arranged in a short timeframe to access the patient’s conditions. The physiological data collected helps healthcare providers get a better perspective on the needs of their patients and on-going evidence-based analytics to ensure their care plan is working.
"Patients who enrolled in a care monitoring program report they were able to better control their chronic disease, had fewer issues that lead to a hospital or ER visits, and had improved health after 12 – 18 months of remote monitoring." (Source CMS.gov)
The RPM program may significantly improve an individual's quality of life, by allowing patients to maintain independence, prevent complications, and to minimize personal costs. The remote monitoring care team facilitates these goals by delivering care through telecommunications. This form of patient monitoring can be particularly important when patients are managing complex comorbidities, such as diabetes, COPD, congestive heart failure, and hypertension.
Key features of RPM, include remote monitoring and trend analysis of physiological parameters, enable early detection of deterioration; thereby reducing emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and the duration of hospital stays.
