Remote Patient Monitoring: Contract Structures, Medicare Coverage, and Regulatory Compliance

About the Course

Introduction

This CLE webinar will guide healthcare counsel on remote patient monitoring. The panel will examine reimbursement standards for remote physiologic monitoring (RPM), remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM), and digital mental health therapy (DMHT). The panel will also address compliance challenges of remote patient monitoring.

Description

Since Medicare began paying for RPM services in 2018, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has expanded RPM coverage with additional codes and guidance, and in 2022 began covering RTM. Finally, CMS began covering DMHT in 2025.

CMS has continued to revise Medicare payment policies, thereby making it less burdensome for providers to furnish remote patient monitoring services and increasing adoption. Those utilizing RPM or RTM must ensure they comply with licensure, scope of practice, supervision, time based criteria, coding and related requirements to be eligible for reimbursement.

As healthcare provider organizations seek to invest in and utilize remote patient monitoring solutions, particularly as patients have become more accustomed to remote care post-pandemic, they should consider the risks and compliance challenges to these services and understand the reimbursement and compliance landscape.

Listen as our authoritative panel of a healthcare attorney and healthcare consultant examines reimbursement standards for remote patient monitoring. The panel will also address the related compliance considerations providers should consider when delivering these services.
