Description
- Learn how Lifepoint successfully launched and scaled remote patient monitoring capabilities for Medicare patients with chronic conditions such as congestive heart failure, type 2 diabetes and hypertension and moved to expand these capabilities into primary care.
- Explore how these capabilities helped patients, including driving a 2x increase in hypertension patients with well-controlled blood pressure after 10 weeks of remote monitoring with 98% of patients reporting they received high-quality, easy-to-understand care through the remote care platform.
- Hear firsthand clinician perspectives on opportunities and challenges associated with both implementing and expanding a remote patient monitoring solution, including how to determine which patient populations may benefit most from the solution.
- Distill best practices in educating both providers and patients about the use of remote patient monitoring.
