Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Medicare allows the concurrent billing of Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Advanced Primary Care Management (APCM). RPM focuses on the physiological data and device management, while APCM focuses on comprehensive care coordination, making them complementary services that significantly increase per-patient revenue.
To bill CPT code 99454 (device supply and transmission), the patient must transmit physiological data at least 16 days within a 30-day period. This is why AI-powered reminders are critical for maintaining patient compliance and ensuring the practice can bill for the service.
AI call handling automates the initial outreach to eligible patients, handles the collection of consent, and provides automated troubleshooting support. This reduces the administrative burden on clinical staff and ensures that no eligible patient falls through the cracks during the enrollment phase.
Devices must be FDA-defined medical devices that automatically upload physiological data. Common examples include cellular blood pressure cuffs, blood glucose monitors, pulse oximeters, and digital scales. Manual self-reporting of data does not qualify for RPM billing.
