Key Challenges Identified:
These inefficiencies affected patient experience, clinician responsiveness, and overall healthcare delivery performance.
- 1Manual patient enrollment and insurance verification led to onboarding delays of up to 48 hours per patient
- 2Fragmented data exchange between RPM devices and EHRs, leading to incomplete or delayed patient data synchronization
- 3Limited real-time alerting, making it difficult for care teams to intervene quickly in critical cases
- 4Manual workflows for device ordering, troubleshooting, and billing that increased operational overhead
- 5Lack of a centralized SaaS platform to handle all aspects of patient engagement, device management, and compliance
