THE TELECARE PROCESS: SIMPLIFYING RPM
At Telecare USA, we streamline the remote patient monitoring process to empower healthcare providers and enhance patient care. Our approach is straightforward and efficient, focusing on ease of use and maximum support.
State-of-the-Art Devices for Optimal Monitoring
We provide cutting-edge, industry-leading devices that offer unparalleled accuracy in patient monitoring. Our role begins with equipping your clinic with these advanced tools, designed to integrate seamlessly into your daily practice.
Seamless Patient Onboarding
The process is simple:
- Clinic’s Role: Your primary responsibility is to identify patients who would benefit from remote monitoring and assign them one of our devices. We provide all devices and testing consumables at no additional cost to your clinic.
- Streamlined Paperwork: Your staff completes a simple, one-page form and sends it to us via fax or email. This form kickstarts the onboarding process seamlessly.
Comprehensive Patient Education and Profile Setup
Upon receiving the form, our Onboarding Coordinator promptly connects with the patient on the next business day. We take responsibility for:
- Educating the Patient: Our coordinator teaches the patient how to use the monitor effectively, ensuring they feel confident and informed.
- Profile Creation: We set up the patient’s profile in our HIPAA-secure online portal—a hub for tracking and managing their health data. All patient readings and documentation are securely retained for seven years, ensuring compliance and continuity of care.
- First Reading Confirmation: While on the phone with the patient, we guide them through taking their first reading to confirm it is successfully transmitted to our portal, marking the start of our continuous monitoring service.
Dedicated Monitoring
With the onboarding complete, our team takes over all aspects of monitoring - from readings monitoring and documentation to patient testing reminders to out of range readings alerts. This allows your providers and staff to focus on other critical, revenue-generating activities within your practice.
Detailed Reporting
Each month, you will receive a comprehensive report detailing all the CPT codes your providers should bill for, ensuring you capture all appropriate revenue for the services rendered.
Our Commitment: Enhancing Healthcare Delivery
By handling the complexities of onboarding and monitoring, we empower healthcare providers to devote more time to patient care and other essential services. Our process is designed to be as effortless as possible, providing peace of mind and operational efficiency to your clinic.
