Remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) is changing how organizations engage patients and support care beyond the visit. With the expansion of RTM CPT codes, RTM is becoming an even more powerful lever for organizations looking to extend care beyond the visit and sustain patient engagement between visits. Join us for a candid, real-world conversation with the Rehabilitation & Performance Institute as they share how their team has leveraged RTM to deliver exceptional patient care and generate incremental revenue. This session is an open discussion rather than a slide presentation. We’ll unpack what it really takes for organizations to get off the ground with RTM—and start seeing tangible results.
