How Remote Patient Monitoring Can Boost Your Practice Revenue

In post-pandemic healthcare, medical practices are being asked to do more with less—see more patients, improve outcomes, and reduce costs—often without the luxury of expanding their workforce. For many, the solution lies in remote patient monitoring (RPM): a care model that not only enhances patient care but also opens new revenue streams.

What if you could increase revenue without adding administrative or clinical workload? With the right RPM partner, it’s possible.

Understanding RPM: Beyond Just Devices

Remote Patient Monitoring enables providers to track patients' health data outside the clinic—typically for chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, and more. Patients use FDA-approved devices at home, transmitting data (like blood pressure or glucose readings) securely to their care team.

But the true value of RPM isn’t just the technology—it’s in the reimbursement model and the ability to scale care without hiring more staff.

Revenue Potential: A Look at RPM Billing Codes

Here’s where RPM really shines: CMS-approved CPT codes allow providers to bill for ongoing remote services. Here’s a simplified breakdown:

• CPT 99453 – Initial patient setup and education (~$19 one-time)
• CPT 99454 – Device supply and daily monitoring transmission (~$50/month)
• CPT 99457 – 20 minutes of RPM time (e.g., reviewing data, interacting with patient) (~$50/month)
• CPT 99458 – Each additional 20 minutes (~$40/month)

A single enrolled RPM patient can generate up to $150–$200/month in revenue, depending on care level. Multiply that by 100 patients, and practices can add $15,000–$20,000/month in revenue—without adding full-time staff.

Here’s How It Works Without Additional Staff

A concern for many practices is: Who’s going to manage this? That’s where choosing the right RPM partner makes all the difference.

Bonus: RPM Improves Quality Scores & Reduces Risk

In addition to increased revenue, RPM plays a role in boosting your practice's quality metrics—especially important for ACOs, MIPS, or value-based contracts.

Remote monitoring helps catch early warning signs, reduce ER visits, and avoid preventable hospitalizations. It’s not just profitable—it’s smart care.
