Technology and the promise of remote monitoring Patients with chronic diseases are good candidates for remote monitoring. Chronic disease care requires frequent assessments, yet these patients may experience barriers to the appointments where assessments traditionally occur. Remote monitoring helps bridge this gap while also providing a more detailed picture of patient health.
Numerous studies support the value of remote monitoring for patients with a variety of chronic conditions. Generally, health improves and less care is needed after these technologies are put in place.
Remote monitoring may even keep patients out of the hospital, leading to lower costs, fewer complications and better outcomes.4 Mayo Clinic researchers documented a 40-percentage-point reduction in 90-day re-admissions or emergency department (ED) care among cardiac rehabilitation patients who used an app to monitor their cardiovascular risk factors.
Just 20% of that group was readmitted or visited the ED, compared with 60% of control patients.
When merged with technology such as the MindHeart's MeduPal Telehealth system on the clinical side, remote monitoring supports the care management that is so important to chronic disease outcomes.
Clinicians who have the ability to access real-time changes in these metrics can modify medications, talk with patients, arrange necessary appointments or take other actions to stop a potential problem.
A model for smarter care Technology-assisted case management (TACM) is a model that leverages these tools and enables providers and payers to address the challenges of chronic disease care. Researchers say TACM’s blend of high-touch clinical case management and high-tech remote monitoring is a “practical and sustainable” disease management system.
This mix of technology, actionable data and clinical expertise can transform outcomes.
Minimize and eliminate human-to-human contact during Covid19 pandemic
* Provide companionship, reduce anxiety and isolation depression
* Can generate revenue/reimbursement from telehealth & RPM on robot
* Save on labor and augmenting existing staff (robot can also deliver tests, food and medicine to beds - on pre-mapped route room-to-room)
MindHeart Lab is the developer of the EduPal Robot Companion that includes our anxiety and mental health software with voice & touchscreen commands with remote control.
In response to help the Covid-19 Pandemic, our larger MeduPal robots are now available to help to deliver Covid-19 testing and to provide services including guidance, temperature detection, telehealth, remote patient management, chronic care management / diabetes, COPD, pain, sleep
apnea / CPAP systems to hospitals, nursing homes clinics and home care.
NEW REMOTE PATIENT MONITORING CPT CODES PROVIDE MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR REIMBURSEMENT With MeduPal Robot with remote patient monitoring solution, qualified healthcare professionals can increase patient access to care and improve chronic disease management—all while receiving reimbursement!
MeduPal provides tools that empower healthcare professionals and caregivers to remotely monitor their patients’ health conditions. The system supports various measurement data uploads which include: blood glucose, blood pressure, temperature, blood oxygen, and weight control. Patients’ test results are sent via cellular connection, gateway or mobile app to the 24/7 cloud.
A total of 6 new CPT codes have been added to the 2019 and 2020 Medicare fee schedule in the category of Chronic Care Remote Physiologic Monitoring:
99453 Reported when onboarding a new patient into a RPM program, equipment set-up and patient education on the equipment
99454 Reported when the patient receives a RPM device for monitoring for each 30- day period 99457 Reported when a qualified healthcare professional spends 20 minutes of time monitoring, including interactive communication via phone, text, or email
99458 Reported when an additional 20 minutes of interactive communication is provided to the patient/caregiver, and is billed in conjunction with CPT code 99457
99473 Reported when educating and training a patient on a self-measured blood pressure device
99474 Reported when patient reports selfmeasured blood pressure readings: two readings, one minute apart, twice daily for a 30-day period, including providing a treatment plan to the patient
MindHeart AI & Our EmoSmarts System Data is from a complex system of behavior, response and cognitive patterns. Our team has over 100 years in healthcare, security and technology. We use our patent-pending PEAK emotion-powered empathy and anti-anxiety AI technology to rapidly configure care modules to make remote-care delivery as similar as possible to the nursing home’s, clinicians’ or hospital’s workflow.
Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is a technology to enable monitoring of patients outside of conventional clinical settings, which may increase access to care and decrease healthcare delivery costs.
Incorporating remote patient monitoring in chronic disease management allows patients to maintain independence and minimize personal costs.
Since MeduPal Robots and devices connect to our telehealth and telepresence system, physicians can access real-time data to prevent complications and significantly improve a patient’s quality of life.
In addition, patients and their family members feel comfort knowing that they are being monitored and will be supported if a problem arises.
