Client Challenge

For many outpatient rehab organizations across the U.S., low patient engagement and high patient dropoff are ongoing challenges, leading to poor outcomes and lost revenue. At CORA Health Services, MedBridge’s patient-friendly education, exercises, and online communication tools were already helping the multi-clinic physical therapy organization significantly boost patient engagement and outcomes.

However, implementing remote monitoring would allow CORA to take its digital patient care to the next level by further improving patient engagement and outcomes for Medicare patients and receiving reimbursement for the remote care provided. To reach these goals, CORA needed the right technology and processes to easily and accurately track clinician and patient activities.

MedBridge Solution

To elevate its digital patient care, CORA partnered with MedBridge to implement a virtual end-to-end solution for tracking and reporting activities related to remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM). This standardized, repeatable, and easy-to-manage process helped CORA:

  • Successfully leverage RTM as a strategic driver to optimize its digital care program—improving patient activation, keeping patients even more engaged throughout their episode of care, and collecting additional revenue by meeting RTM code requirements that require patients and clinicians to regularly log data online.
  • Collect additional revenue by meeting RTM code requirements that require patients and clinicians to regularly log data online.
