3rd Annual Remote Patient Monitoring Virtual Summit

Remote patient monitoring is growing in popularity, with providers, payers, and patients showing interest in using RPM technologies to manage and improve health conditions. This panel will delve into strategies to ensure patients can successfully engage in RPM programs and overcome barriers to adoption. The discussion will also cover how patients' social determinants of health, such as access to the internet and technology, can be addressed to support their participation in the programs.

The COVID-19 pandemic boosted the use of virtual care strategies like remote patient monitoring. But as the public health emergency winds down, RPM use is moving past the pandemic response. In this keynote address, Dr. Zenobia Brown, associate chief medical officer at Northwell Health and executive director of Northwell Heath Solutions, will discuss the role of RPM in achieving value-based care, how it can be leveraged to support population health strategies, and the barriers that need to be torn down to enable RPM to reach its full potential.

Though remote patient monitoring is increasingly used to boost care access and improve outcomes, several hurdles stand in the way of RPM technology use. This panel will focus on the reimbursement and regulatory challenges preventing widespread RPM adoption and use across the continuum of care. It will also include a discussion on what RPM providers can do to overcome these challenges and what they need from lawmakers to spur RPM use.

The care-at-home continuum is vast, ranging from chronic disease management to hospital-at-home programs. While this move to home-based care provides numerous patient and provider benefits, scaling these services can be complex. Dr. Eve Cunningham, group vice president and chief of virtual care and digital health at Providence, will detail the evolving care-at-home continuum and challenges to scale, strategies the health system has employed in its care-at-home journey, and why health systems need to invest in these services today to prepare for healthcare's tomorrow.

The key to a successful population health management program lies in data. To move the needle on clinical outcomes and cost of care, data and clinical teams must partner to identify the highest risk patients, develop targeted care plans, and allocate resources. With data as the cornerstone, OSF OnCall has formed a multi-disciplinary Advanced Care team, dedicated to providing in-home treatment for patients with complex conditions such as hypertension, CHF, COPD, and asthma. Discover how OSF leverages data to optimize program design and operations, resulting in maximum impact on clinical outcomes and cost control.

Key discussion areas will include:

• Using data analytics to identify consumers with high-risk conditions
• Facilitating smooth data interoperability across systems
• Designing data-driven clinical protocols and interventions using real-time RPM data
• Measuring care program ROI and success.
