After detailing how to select the best remote patient monitoring for community health centers, we wanted to detail how Withings is uniquely qualified to help.

1. Cellular-enabled devices enhance patient usability and accessibility

Withings has introduced cellular-enabled devices that include the BPM Connect Pro blood pressure monitor and the Body Pro scale. These two devices remove technological barriers in the patient journey while making sure installation and use are frictionless at three levels:

• An extremely simple onboarding experience. Thanks to cellular connectivity, BPM Connect Pro and Body Pro work right out of the box, and no smartphone, tablet, or Wi-Fi is required.
• Easy-to-use devices, no app needed. The BPM Connect Pro has only one button to press. For the patient, results appear right on the device screen along with color-coded feedback based on American Heart Association recommendations. In the case of patients using scales, Body Pro only requires participants to step on the scale, and then data is seamlessly recorded with no buttons to press.
• Long battery life. BPM Connect Pro lasts six months before having to recharge it, and Body Pro scale lasts up to 12 months.

Our simplified user experience drives retention and long-term use among chronic patients with different digital literacies and connectivity capacities allowing community health centers to kickstart and maintain remote patient monitoring programs rather than spending time on device education.

2. Withings RPM integrates directly into existing EHR systems

Through the Withings partnership with Redox, Withings offers the possibility to integrate a new remote patient monitoring solution with many of the industry’s leading EHR management platforms. For limited RPM duration or smaller patient cohorts, EHR integration costs can be significant. Alternatively, Withings has developed MED·PRO CARE, a comprehensive solution that will help you to manage your RPM program from patient enrollment to data visualization in a modern, user-friendly platform. MED·PRO CARE has an economical model based on subscription to help community health centers master their investments while benefiting from a turnkey solution that saves time on IT development and implementation.

3. Withings helps community health centers save money

Did you know that opting for a cellular smart device could be up to 60% less expensive than buying a Bluetooth device and tablet? Withings cellular devices are meant to break barriers to access, and one barrier is cost. Saved expenses could be used to enroll more chronic patients in your RPM program or fund other telehealth investments.

4. Withings RPM has customer service built-in

Withings Customer Support team is a proud Golden Bridge Customer Support winner in the category of Customer Service and Support Team Department of the Year. In addition to excellent support, the Withings ecosystem of devices are incredibly easy for patients and providers to use, resulting in an exceptionally low contact rate. Finally, a dedicated customer success manager is assigned to each community health center to make sure Withings products and services address the center’s unique provider and patient needs.

BPM Pro 2 is advancing remote blood pressure monitoring as a first-of-its-kind device complete with exclusive features for increased patient engagement and data reliability. This device makes it easy for patients to not only capture their blood pressure and heart rate but for care teams to have better insights into what these readings mean.

Addressing Challenges in Remote Patient Monitoring
Accurate at-home blood pressure monitoring can be difficult. Patients might take readings under improper conditions—crossed legs, just after physical activity, or without sufficient rest—leading to inaccurate data and unnecessary concern. This not only frustrates patients but also increases provider workloads as they deal with troubleshooting and sifting through inconsistent readings.

Remote monitoring can also be resource-intensive for care teams. Providers often spend valuable time reminding patients to take measurements or trying to understand what's driving abnormal blood pressure readings without sufficient context.

 

How BPM Pro 2 Elevates Remote Blood Pressure Monitoring
With BPM Pro 2, both patients and care teams are empowered with a suite of advanced features designed to enhance data reliability and reduce provider workload.

Advanced Data Reliability: 

• Device Education -  Patients are guided through best practices for taking their blood pressure readings via easy-to-follow visual instructions. 
  • Example: A study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that nearly one-third of patients taking blood pressure readings at home were doing so incorrectly, leading to unreliable data. Many patients in the study had improper cuff placement, incorrect posture, or didn’t rest before taking a measurement, resulting in readings that were higher than their true blood pressure. This can lead to unnecessary treatment changes or medication adjustments. With BPM Pro 2, the Device Education feature ensures that patients are given visual guidance directly on the device, showing them how to properly sit, place the cuff, and remain still during the measurement process. This not only leads to more accurate data but also reduces the burden on providers who would otherwise have to troubleshoot or repeat readings
• Retake Measure - The device can be configured to automatically cue the patients to retake their blood pressure if it hits a certain predetermined threshold.
  • Example: Imagine a patient takes their blood pressure after a stressful phone call or strenuous activity, resulting in an unusually high reading. With the Retake Alert, if the blood pressure reading exceeds a set threshold, BPM Pro 2 will prompt the patient to wait and retake the measurement after a brief rest period. This feature helps ensure that providers receive more accurate readings and reduces unnecessary calls to the care team, ultimately saving time and preventing undue patient anxiety.
• Patient Insights - With Patient Insights, simple and customized questions can be asked to patients on the screen of the device to capture additional information such as symptoms, medication adherence, sleep patterns, and screening questionnaires.
  • Example: After a blood pressure reading, the device may ask, “Did you take your blood pressure medication today?” or “Have you experienced any headaches or dizziness?” This data provides care teams with a more complete understanding of the patient’s condition, helping them differentiate between routine fluctuations and signs of more serious health events. 

Elevated Patient Experience

BPM Pro 2 elevates the patient experience through a range of thoughtfully designed features. It offers personalized health nudges, allowing care teams to send motivational messages at key moments in the patient’s health journey. For example, a patient who has consistently measured their blood pressure for a week may receive a congratulatory message, boosting their engagement with their treatment plan. The device’s bold text and color-coded feedback system make results easy to interpret, particularly for older adults or those with vision impairments, by turning red when blood pressure is elevated. 

With seamless connectivity, BPM Pro 2 automatically sends data to care teams via cellular, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth—perfect for patients in rural areas or without smartphones. Its elegant design and compact carrying case empower patients to take the device on the go, reducing the feeling of being burdened by a medical device. The inclusion of interchangeable XL cuffs ensures accurate readings for patients of all sizes, preventing inaccurate readings due to improper fit. With a long battery life lasting up to six months, patients can confidently stay on top of their health without frequent recharging concerns.

Why BPM Pro 2 Matters for Providers and Patients

BPM Pro 2 is designed to make remote patient monitoring more accessible, reliable, and patient-centric. It addresses key pain points in remote healthcare, enabling providers to gather more accurate data with less effort, while patients experience a more user-friendly and engaging tool. This improved engagement fosters better adherence to care plans and leads to improved outcomes for managing chronic heart conditions like hypertension and heart failure.

 

With BPM Pro 2, patients not only capture vital data like blood pressure and heart rate—they also gain insights into what their readings mean. Providers, in turn, receive more comprehensive information to tailor interventions and improve the quality of care. This dual empowerment creates a more collaborative healthcare experience, ensuring that both patients and providers have the tools they need for success.
