Remote Physiological Monitoring (RPM) Software for Providers
Clinii’s Remote Physiological Monitoring (RPM) software gives providers real-time access to patient vitals for proactive chronic care management. Integrated with your EMR and CPT billing-ready, Clinii supports earlier interventions, fewer hospitalizations, and efficient remote workflows—all while improving reimbursement and outcomes.
Remote Physiological Monitoring (RPM) involves the use of digital technologies
to monitor and capture medical and other health data from patients remotely, facilitating real-time care management and adjustments to treatment plans. RPM is reimbursable under Medicare and other payers using CPT codes 99453–99458, which cover setup, data transmission, and care management time.
What is Remote Physiological Monitoring?
CPT Codes
Non-Complex Provider
Initial setup and patient education on the use of remote monitoring equipment. This is billed once per device.
Accounts for the first 20 minutes per calendar month spent reviewing physiologic data and interacting with the patient or caregiver to guide care decisions.
1. Manage Chronic Conditions with RPM
RPM allows clinicians to monitor patients with chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or heart disease more effectively. By having access to daily vital sign data, providers can detect subtle changes before they escalate into acute events. This continuous stream of information enables earlier interventions, reducing the need for emergency care and improving long-term outcomes.
2. Prevent Hospital Visits with Real-Time Monitoring
One of the most significant advantages of RPM is its ability to reduce avoidable hospital visits. By catching early signs of deterioration and addressing them promptly, clinicians can prevent complications that typically lead to hospitalizations. This not only benefits patients by avoiding disruptive care episodes but also eases the burden on healthcare facilities.
3. Support Proactive & Patient-Centered RPM Care
RPM fosters a more proactive approach to care by giving providers actionable insights into their patients’ health trends. Rather than relying on periodic checkups or patient self-reporting, clinicians can make informed decisions in near real-time. This model supports more timely adjustments to care plans and strengthens the patient-provider relationship.
4. Streamline RPM Billing & Care Team Efficiency
For healthcare organizations, RPM offers a streamlined method of extending care without overextending staff. Through automation and efficient data handling, providers can manage more patients remotely. Furthermore, RPM services are reimbursable under Medicare and other payers, offering a sustainable way to grow care services while boosting revenue.
5. Make Smarter Decisions with RPM Vital Data
The integration of real-time physiological data into clinical workflows gives practitioners a clearer picture of patient health. This level of insight supports better-informed clinical decisions, particularly for patients who may not present symptoms during office visits. RPM bridges that gap, ensuring no critical changes are missed between appointments.
6. How Clinii Simplifies RPM for Providers

Frequently Asked Questions About Remote Physiological Monitoring
1. Do patients need to provide consent to receive RPM services?
Yes, and providers must obtain and document consent in patients' medical records. Medicare allows for informed verbal consent, but other payers may require written.
2. Will RPM replace regular doctor visits?
No. RPM supplements your regular care by keeping the provider informed between visits. It may reduce the need for some appointments, but in-person care is still important.
3. What are the compliance requirements for offering RPM?
RPM programs must adhere to HIPAA regulations and ensure that patient data is securely collected, transmitted, and stored. Devices used must meet FDA standards, and consent documentation and clinical review logs must be maintained to support reimbursement and care quality.
4. How do I bill for RPM CPT codes like 99457 and 99458?
To bill for RPM, providers must track time spent reviewing physiologic data and communicating with patients. CPT 99457 covers the first 20 minutes, while 99458 is used for additional time. Clinii’s platform automates time tracking and documentation to simplify billing.
5. What software features support RPM billing and compliance?
Clinii’s RPM software includes real-time data monitoring, EMR integration, and automated documentation tools that support HIPAA and FDA requirements—making it easier to comply with payer and CMS billing guidelines.
