Remote Therapeutic Monitoring

At Thera Logics, we’re dedicated to making physical therapists’ lives easier — and that includes finding additional billable service opportunities while helping their patients get the best care possible.

Physical Therapy of the Future

Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) is an innovative approach in physical therapy that leverages technology to enhance patient care outside of the clinic. RTM allows physical therapists to remotely track and assess patients’ progress, adherence to prescribed exercises, and overall recovery in real time. This is achieved through the use of wearable devices, mobile apps, or other digital tools that collect and transmit data on movement, effort levels, and other relevant metrics.

With RTM, therapists can monitor their patients’ exercises to ensure they are performed correctly and provide timely feedback or adjustments to their treatment plans. This continuous oversight helps improve outcomes by promoting adherence, reducing the risk of re-injury, and ensuring that patients are on the right track toward recovery.

Moreover, RTM offers patients the convenience of performing their therapy at home while maintaining a strong connection with their therapist, enhancing the overall rehabilitation experience. For clinics, RTM not only improves patient outcomes but also creates new revenue streams through billing for these remote monitoring services.

RTM is transforming physical therapy by extending the reach of care beyond the clinic, empowering patients to recover more effectively with ongoing professional support.

How to Bill for RTM

Billing for Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) in physical therapy involves using specific codes designed for remote monitoring services. These codes cover the time spent setting up and educating patients on RTM devices, monitoring the data, and interacting with patients to adjust their care plans.

Brace X simplifies this process.

Brace X collects patient data, including muscle strength, adherence to their program, exertion ratings, pain ratings, and satisfaction ratings. Alerts can be sent to patients to log in to make entries and alter the PT when entries occur. It may also track time spent by the PT making patient contacts and plan adjustments to support billing of RTM.

Benefits of RTM

Billing for RTM offers several advantages for both patients and physical therapy practices.

Improved Patient Outcomes
RTM allows for continuous monitoring of patient progress, ensuring exercises are performed correctly and any issues are addressed promptly. This leads to better recovery outcomes and reduces the risk of re-injury.
Increased Revenue Streams
By offering RTM services, practices can generate additional income by billing RTM CPT codes. This not only diversifies revenue but also adds value to the services provided to patients.
Enhanced Patient Engagement
RTM keeps patients more engaged in their therapy by providing ongoing feedback and support. This continuous connection between therapist and patient can lead to higher satisfaction and better adherence to treatment plans.
Competitive Advantage
As RTM becomes more widely adopted, offering these services can set your practice apart from others, positioning it as a leader in innovative, patient-centered care.
Flexibility for Patients
RTM provides patients with the convenience of completing their therapy at home while still benefiting from the expertise and oversight of their therapist. This flexibility can improve patient retention and attract new clients who prefer or require remote care options.

Incorporating RTM into your practice not only enhances the quality of care but also optimizes business operations, making it a valuable addition to modern physical therapy services.
