Why Start a Remote Patient Monitoring Program?

6 min read

Accessing a patient’s key health metrics remotely was something few healthcare providers could envision just a few decades ago. Today, this technology is readily available, with medical-grade health devices collecting and securely transmitting patient health data directly to physicians. Remote patient monitoring (RPM) programs offer many benefits for both patients and healthcare providers. Let’s explore how this technology can provide higher-quality care for patients while improving the profitability and sustainability of medical practices. We’ll also share a quick checklist you can use to decide if starting a remote patient monitoring program is the right choice for your patients and practice.

How a Remote Patient Monitoring Program Benefits Patients

Connected health devices can be used to monitor important health stats like blood pressure, heart rate, weight, sleep patterns, and more. Many patients get a lot out of participating in a remote patient monitoring program, including those who are managing chronic conditions (i.e. diabetes, hypertension), going through post-op recovery, or who live in a rural community or lack access to reliable transportation. Here are six specific ways RPM programs benefit patients.

Higher levels of patient engagement

One of the most important factors in improving patient health outcomes is engagement. Patients who are actively engaged in their own care are more likely to proactively engage with their healthcare providers and take charge of adjusting lifestyle factors that may be impacting their overall health. Remote patient monitoring technology puts actionable health information within easy reach, allowing patients and their care providers to view both current health metrics as well as trends over time.

Greater patient ownership of health outcomes

Remote patient monitoring connects patients with their own health metrics, allowing them to play a greater role in monitoring their health. Health data is displayed on an intuitive app that allows patients to track progress over time. Easy access to health data empowers patients to see how they can improve their health by adjusting lifestyle factors within their control.

Improved access to care

Patients may face many barriers when it comes to accessing medical care. Long commutes, work and childcare obligations, and a lack of reliable transportation are just a few of the roadblocks to overcome. And in rural communities, the closest provider may be hundreds of miles away. Remote patient monitoring technologies can be used as part of a holistic health program to offer more convenient care when and where patients need it.

Additional data to better inform treatment and early detection of health conditions

In-person visits provide just a snapshot in time of key health metrics like weight, heart rate, and blood pressure, and because these measurements are taken infrequently and in an abnormal environment, these measurements may paint an inaccurate picture of a patient’s health. Remote patient monitoring devices, in contrast, can collect readings much more frequently and can be set to alert providers when numbers indicate the presence of health issues that require urgent attention.

Reduced patient cost for monitoring chronic health conditions

Actively monitoring chronic health conditions can place a significant logistical and financial burden on patients who must make frequent visits to their healthcare providers, since these visits require time off of work as well as transportation-related expenses. Participating in a remote patient monitoring program enables physicians to collect key health data remotely, potentially reducing the number of required in-person visits.

Improved quality of care

Remote patient monitoring can result in significant improvements in the quality of care that patients receive. As noted above, it provides a valuable source of additional health data for providers, leading to more informed care. More frequent readings can enable earlier detection of critical health issues that require timely intervention, and can help physicians catch deteriorating conditions before they become problematic. They also provide a more holistic view of a patient’s health. Additionally, when patients have immediate access to their own health data they can be more motivated to make important lifestyle changes and take a more active role in their health outcomes.

How a Remote Patient Monitoring Program Benefits Primary Care Practices

Launching a remote patient monitoring program can unlock a host of benefits for primary medical practices. For providers seeking to improve the quality of patient care, boost revenue, and remain competitive, offering remote patient monitoring can help accomplish these goals.

Improved quality of care and patient oversight

Remote patient monitoring technologies measure health metrics with much greater frequency than in-office visits and allow healthcare professionals the ability to spot sudden changes that may require time-sensitive intervention. For example, with an RPM program, physicians can track weight as part of fluid management in patients with CHF.

Longitudinal care

Tracking patient health trends over time provides physicians and other healthcare professionals with valuable trend data that can be used to better manage patient care. For example, providers can more easily see how a chronic illness has progressed over time with a quick glance at a data chart.

Opportunities to expand the patient base

Now that remote patient monitoring technologies have matured, patients are starting to recognize the value and convenience of enrolling in one of these programs. The proliferation of wearable technology, such as the ScanWatch, has contributed. Establishing a robust remote patient monitoring program in your practice can attract new patients eager for the advantages it can provide.

Increased patient satisfaction

Remote patient monitoring programs result in happier patients. That’s no surprise. This technology enables patients to avoid unnecessary office visits, spend more time at work or home, and access their own health data with a few clicks of a mobile app. Research backs up this assertion. A 2021 study found that 91% of post-discharge COVID-19 patients monitored remotely using a pulse oximeter would recommend it to others.

Improved profitability for the practice

Remote patient monitoring can result in more efficient workflows, boosting the productivity of office staff and healthcare providers and enabling more patients access to care. RPM programs include several billable services reimbursable by Medicare and private insurers.

Checklist to Identify if an RPM Program Is Right for Your Practice

Although remote patient monitoring programs have a lot to offer, some patients and medical practices will benefit from them more than others. Here are a few important questions to ask when deciding if launching a remote patient monitoring program is the right move for your practice.

  • Would your current patients benefit from this technology?
  • Do a significant number of your patients have chronic health conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, COPD, or diabetes?
  • Do a significant number of your patients have health conditions requiring short-term monitoring such as those recovering from an acute condition like severe illness, injury, or a recent hospitalization?
  • Do some of your patients struggle to keep frequent in-person visits due to living in remote locations, lack of transportation, or schedule conflicts due to work or primary caregiver obligations?
  • Is your practice eager to expand billable services and take on additional patients?
  • Do you have adequate buy-in from office staff and physicians?

Collaboration aligns with new guidance from American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists to enable real-time, remote patient monitoring (RPM) of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP)

Boston, MA – May 8, 2025 – Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), including preeclampsia, impact nearly 15 percent of all pregnancies in the U.S. They are among the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality and are on the rise, with women having babies now twice as likely to develop HDP as their mothers. Today, Babyscripts, the leading virtual maternity care program for managing obstetrics, announced a partnership with Withings Health Solutions, a pioneer in digital health technology, to enhance its remote blood pressure monitoring offering with Withings' accessible devices— addressing this critical public health issue with more options for inclusive, real-time monitoring.

As part of the collaboration, Babyscripts members will now have access to Withings BPM Pro 2, an FDA-cleared cellular blood pressure monitor that enables at-home blood pressure tracking. BPM Pro 2 introduces a first-of-its-kind feature, Patient Insights, which prompts patients to answer a short questionnaire directly on the device screen after taking a reading to gather critical information around symptoms and risk factors. This allows healthcare providers to detect early warning signs of HDP outside of traditional clinical settings, enabling timely intervention—particularly for women in underserved or resource-limited communities.

“Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy develop silently but escalate quickly, which is why real-time home monitoring can be life-saving,” said Antoine Robiliard, Vice President of Withings Health Solutions. “BPM Pro 2 and our Patient Insights feature were designed to go beyond the numbers, capturing symptoms and context from patients at the moment a high reading occurs. We are proud that Babyscripts has chosen Withings Health Solutions to support their proven maternity platform. Using BPM Pro 2, they’re delivering a solution that’s clinically robust, inclusive by design, and built for the realities of pregnancy, when ease, speed, and trust matter most.” 

This announcement comes on the heels of new guidance from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) which advocates for personalized prenatal care, such as routine monitoring of blood pressure and alternative care modalities like telemedicine to improve outcomes for pregnant and postpartum patients.  

“Our decade of research and clinical implementation confirms that positive outcomes are linked to empowering women to monitor their own blood pressure and share data with providers,” said Anish Sebastian, CEO and co-founder of Babyscripts. “Our partnership with Withings expands our reach and inclusivity by offering blood pressure cuffs that accommodate a broad range of body sizes and BMIs—ensuring accurate, equitable care for all patients.”

While many women are educated about recognizable symptoms of HDP—such as persistent headaches or swelling—issues can often present without visible symptoms, making proactive monitoring essential for early detection and critical intervention. This was the case for Meredith Jones,* whose healthy pregnancy took a sudden, life-threatening turn at 38 weeks when she recorded several elevated blood pressure readings. Equipped with a Withings blood pressure cuff and education from Babyscripts, Meredith recognized the warning signs of preeclampsia and sought immediate care. She was admitted to the hospital and induced, ultimately delivering a healthy baby boy.

Remote patient monitoring (RPM) with devices like those from Withings Health Solutions provides a practical, scalable way for providers and patients to manage hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). By combining this technology with Babyscripts’ virtual maternity care platform, the two companies are setting a new standard for maternal health—delivering evidence-based solutions that reduce risk and save lives.

Our webinar on remote patient monitoring brought unique perspectives on the common barriers to activation, adherence and staffing, as well as a look at real outcomes—both at a health center and research level. Our panelists brought their experiences to inform a rich discussion about optimizing patient engagement, enhancing care and streamlining clinical operations. Highlights from the conversation have been summarized and detailed below.

 

Dr. AJ Blood, Cardiologist and Associate Director, Accelerator for Clinical Transformation at Mass General Brigham

 

Dr. Blood brought his extensive experience in Remote Patient Monitoring research to the discussion, as well as his experience as a practicing cardiologist in a large hospital system. He highlighted the long wait times patients may face for hypertension care, since care teams can be booked out for months and the urgent need for hypertension monitoring without the confines of a clinic schedule. The health outcomes his research has shown create a compelling argument for healthcare systems to integrate remote patient monitoring. But he also brought color to the discussion by highlighting the need for comprehensive, supportive onboarding for patients in RPM programs, because without it engagement and adherence can suffer. He also emphasized the importance of tailoring care to the patient for optimal engagement, finding a monitoring plan that makes sense for their schedule, as well as supporting them first in attainable healthy habits, and secondly in medication management when needed. 

 

His experience in RPM programs that bill insurance brought financial insight that was highly requested in our question and answer section. 

 

Julie Fraher, BSN, RN, ACRN, Edward M, Kennedy Community Health Center

 

Julie brought a level of insight that can only be gained through on the ground experience in remote patient monitoring. While many attendees laughed as she detailed how her experience in RPM began in tears after being told to build a program from nothing, she now has impressive program outcomes that reminded everyone of the impact that RPM can have. Her dedication to meeting patients where they are at has led her program to adapt reading materials to encompass a broader population, increased the use of telehealth to address barriers, and has created nursing protocols for high readings that allow her care teams to provide care confidently. She provided operational details about how she staffed her program, and the positive feedback that her Chronic Condition Management Nurses have provided now that they have patient blood pressure readings right in their EHR, rather than needing to manually input them, and how RPM alerts have helped them to triage.

 

For more about her program, Withings Health Solutions partnered with her team to create this case study. 

 

Antoine Robiliard, VP, Withings Health Solutions

 

Antoine provided a unique perspective from the technology partner side. His experience in partnering with RPM programs of all sizes gave him valuable insight into the common barriers that can prevent a program from being successful. He championed the patient experience, and the need for devices to be intuitive, sleek, and satisfying the consumer expectations that patients may have. He piggybacked off Dr. Blood’s emphasis on strong onboarding in RPM programs by detailing the benefit of a cellular device, rather than Bluetooth for greater ease, both at the beginning but also throughout the duration of a program. He also brought patient perspective to the discussion in emphasizing that patients do not want to use a product that reminds them of their condition, and highlighted the benefit that a sleek design can bring to clinical care.

 

He brought optimism for the future of RPM by highlighting the potential for greater risk stratification by using combinations of metrics and trend analyses, which could provide care teams a way to triage patients and provide longitudinal monitoring.

World Sleep Day, the annual spotlight on sleep health that promotes education, research and patient care, is being held on March 14. Withings is marking the occasion by highlighting the extensive technology development and research the company is doing to promote better sleep and more accessible sleep diagnostics.

 

Because sleep affects so many chronic conditions - from diabetes, stroke and heart disease to obesity, anxiety and depression -  higher quality sleep is one of the few areas of impact that can universally change human health for the better. 

 

That’s why the Withings team has spent its waking hours for the past several years developing and testing technology to improve global sleep quality. In September, Withings Sleep Rx was given FDA clearance as the first contactless device to aid in the diagnosis of sleep apnea, joining the Withings Sleep Analyzer, a device that is CE marked to diagnose sleep apnea in the EU. 

 

Sleep Rx and the other Withings devices that use the same hardware are being used in major sleep studies around the world. Because the devices are contactless and lay under the patient’s mattress, they enable large-scale studies that would previously have been nearly impossible to conduct. Here is just a sampling of recent research using or related to Withings sleep devices.

 

Cognitive Performance of Critical Shift Workers

Non-daytime shift workers - like nurses, firefighters, mariners, military personnel  and transit drivers - have a 60% greater risk of workplace accidents. Using Withings Sleep Analyzer, which uses the same hardware technology as Sleep Rx, researchers were able to understand the cognitive impacts of different lighting conditions to develop a model for predicting performance under varying sleep conditions and time of day of the sleep.

 

Results supported the utility of simple non-intrusive sleep monitoring via consumer sleep technology to estimate post-sleep work shift performance and safety during non-daytime shift schedules.

How Many Nights of Sleep Data Do We Really Need?

An article in JMIR Formative Research examines how traditional sleep assessments rely on short-term tracking (3–14 days), while a six-month study using Withings’ wearables and sleep sensors suggests this may not be enough. Researchers found that seasonal variations and long-term patterns significantly impact sleep health, reinforcing the importance of continuous monitoring to gain a more accurate picture of sleep behaviors.

The Future of Sleep Research: Large-Scale, Decentralized Studies

An article in Current Sleep Medicine Reports details how the growing adoption of wearable and nearable sleep tech is enabling researchers to shift toward real-world, long-term data collection. Ongoing studies using Withings technology are paving the way for remote clinical trials, enabling deeper insights into sleep disorders and their broader health impacts.
