FAQ's

1. What is Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM), and how does it work?
RPM is a system that allows healthcare providers to monitor and manage patients’ health conditions outside of the traditional clinical setting using digital technology. Patients use connected devices (such as blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters, glucose meters, weight scales or wearable devices) to measure and transmit health data to their healthcare providers. This data is securely sent to the RPM platform, where providers can access real-time updates on patient health, respond to alerts, and adjust care plans as needed.
2. Why should I consider RPM for my practice?
RPM offers numerous benefits for physicians and their patients. It allows for continuous monitoring of chronic conditions, helping prevent complications and hospitalizations. RPM improves patient engagement, adherence, and outcomes by providing consistent feedback and support. Additionally, RPM enables a more proactive, data-driven approach to care, which can reduce emergency visits and readmissions.
3. What types of patients benefit most from RPM?
RPM is especially beneficial for patients with chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, COPD, and heart failure. It can also help with post-surgical recovery and patients who have limited mobility or difficulty attending in-person appointments. RPM can support a wide range of patients by enabling more consistent monitoring and early intervention when necessary.
4. How does RPM impact patient outcomes?
Studies show that RPM can lead to improved outcomes by enabling early detection of potential health issues, leading to timely interventions. RPM often results in better medication adherence, improved lifestyle habits, and a reduction in hospitalization rates. By helping patients manage their conditions at home, RPM also promotes a stronger patient-provider connection and improves overall health outcomes.
5. How can RPM be integrated into my current workflow?
Most RPM platforms are designed to integrate with your practice’s electronic health record (EHR) systems. Alerts, reports, and patient data can be customized based on your preferences and is accessible through secure portals or dashboards. Our RPM solution is flexible and can adapt to your workflow with minimal disruption, allowing you to scale its use across your practice as needed.
6. What kind of data will I receive from my patients, and how is it organized?
You’ll receive vital health data such as blood pressure, heart rate, blood glucose levels, oxygen saturation, and more. This information is organized into dashboards and trend reports, allowing you to view patients’ health patterns over time and receive alerts if any values fall outside the desired range. The data is customizable, so you can choose to prioritize certain metrics based on the patient’s condition.
7. Is the RPM data secure and compliant with HIPAA regulations?
Yes, patient data security is a top priority. Our RPM solution is fully compliant with HIPAA and other regulatory standards. Data is encrypted during transmission and storage, ensuring that only authorized healthcare providers have access to sensitive health information.
8. Will RPM increase my workload?
Our RPM system is designed to be user-friendly and to minimize the administrative burden. It automates data collection and organizes information in an accessible format. Additionally, our RPM solution uses a contracted dedicated clinical staff that monitors patient data on your behalf, flagging any urgent issues and allowing you to focus on clinical decision-making rather than data analysis.
9. How does RPM improve patient engagement and adherence?
RPM provides patients with regular feedback and encouragement, which can increase their motivation to follow treatment plans. By making their health metrics visible and offering reminders, RPM keeps patients engaged in their own care. This continuous monitoring fosters a proactive approach, as patients are more aware of their progress and feel supported in managing their health.
10. Is RPM covered by insurance or Medicare?
Yes, many insurance providers, including Medicare, cover RPM services. Medicare provides reimbursement for RPM under CPT codes for setup, device use, data transmission, and monthly monitoring. RPM offers additional revenue streams for your practice while providing essential support for patients.

This disclosure is provided by MedHab, LLC solely for informational purposes pertaining to its MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® device.

THIS DISCLOSURE IS MADE TO INFORM HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, PATIENTS, AND OTHER USERS OF CERTAIN ASPECTS OF FALL DETECTION AND RANGE OF MOTION MEASUREMENTS RELATIVE TO THE USE OF SENSORS EMBEDDED IN THE MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® DEVICE. THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN HAS BEEN PREPARED TO SPECIFICALLY HELP USERS UNDERSTAND THE LIMITATIONS AND PROPER USE OF INFORMATION CAPTURED BY MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx®.
MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® employs a 3-axis sensor embedded in the device along with unique pre-programmed algorithms to make range of motion measurements and to detect and report falls. Range of motion algorithms are specifically designed to make measurements based on degrees of movement by the user, and the data is captured and tracked over time. Fall detection, on the other hand, is event-specific and requires a complicated artificial intelligence algorithm specifically designed and tested to measure, identify and understand data indicating a fall and to communicate to third parties when a fall has occurred.
Range of motion exercises, and tracking thereof, are designed to help the user maintain or gain range of motion and strength in the upper and lower extremities. Although published data shows that decreases in range of motion and speed of motion are directly linked to an increase in the chance of falling, the role played by exercise in preventing falls is not fully understood. The MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® device does not prevent falls, either itself or through association with performing exercises, but the performance of exercises should help the user gain strength, range of motion and speed of motion that in turn should help to avoid falls. As with any exercise regimen, a physician should be consulted to confirm that the user is able to engage in the contemplated exercise regimen prior to using MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx®.
Fall detection is a relatively new science and the use of artificial intelligence, although not perfected, in conjunction with wearable technology is becoming more common. Although developmental testing has shown the MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® fall detection artificial intelligence algorithm to be accurate to within a reasonable error tolerance, nuances of individual human movements may cause false alarms and it is possible that the MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® device may not detect and transmit notice of a fall in some circumstances.
BlueTooth low energy wireless communications technology and Wifi wireless communications technology, both of which are based on limited-range radio transmission and reception, are the means by which the MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® device connects and transmits data and other information, including without limitation notification of a fall, to the user’s mobile smart telephone or other receiving device through which such data and other information ultimately can be made available to the user and to the user’s network of caregivers. If at any time BlueTooth or Wifi connection is lost, is intermittent, or is too weak to transfer data and other information, MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® may be unable to communicate such data and other information, including notification of a fall, to the user’s mobile smart telephone or other receiving device and thus such information may not be made available to the user and to the user’s network of caregivers in a timely manner or at all.  Neither BlueTooth nor Wifi technology can provide completely reliable connectivity in any given circumstance, whether in or out of doors, and both technologies are affected by, among other things, inherent limitations on range within which communications can be conducted successfully, local environmental factors such as active and passive radio and electrical interference from lightning, solar flares, other weather events, and other natural and man-made sources, and interruptions of electrical power service.  MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® uses the GPS (Global Positioning System) in your smartphone to discover your location. At times, the location provided by your smartphone will not be available or may be inaccurate, leading to inaccuracies reported by MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx®. The MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® application employs a technique by which it attempts to discover a more accurate position in the time after an emergency event (fall detection or help request) occurs. If a new, more accurate location is discovered, MyNotifi®/MyNotifiRx® will report this new location to your group of caregivers. MEDHAB IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST, INTERMITTENT OR WEAK CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN MYNOTIFI®/MYNOTIFIRX® AND A RECEIVING DEVICE, OR FOR INACCURATE GPS LOCATIONS, OR FOR ANY RESULTING FAILURE TO TRANSFER DATA OR OTHER INFORMATION, INCLUDING NOTIFICATION OF A FALL, TO A RECEIVING DEVICE IN A TIMELY MANNER OR AT ALL.
