Partner Nate Lacktman was quoted in a
CE Pro article, "
Home Health Technology Scores Big Win in Reimbursement," about the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' new reimbursement schedule for remote patient monitoring (RPM).
Lacktman said entrepreneurs and start-ups offering RPM technologies and services should take steps now to understand these new billing opportunities under Medicare. "With the new CPT codes for Chronic Care Remote Physiologic Monitoring, RPM will become an area of significant upside potential over the coming years," he said. "Hospitals and providers using RPM and non-face-to-face technologies to develop patient population health and care coordination services should take a serious look at these new codes, and keep abreast of developments that can drive recurring revenue and improve the patient care experience."
