Why the benefits of remote care management implementation outweigh the risks

Robust remote care management programs help practices provide the highest quality of care resulting in better outcomes and reduced costs.

Why the benefits of remote care management implementation outweigh the risks

Remote care management programs benefit medical practices

Robust remote care management programs help practices provide the highest quality of care resulting in better outcomes and reduced costs, while also supporting practices with technical expertise that increases efficiency and improves compliance. Barriers to entry – time, labor, infrastructure and costs – often are deterrents to practices trying to implement a remote care program on their own. Implementing a remote care management program with the right team of experts however, requires no upfront investment of time, money or other operational resources – and eliminates these major barriers and risks – leaving only the positive outcomes (clinical, operational and otherwise) to benefit your practice.  

Greatest operational complexities & risks for practices:

  • People
  • Technology
  • Time
  • Costs
  • Compliance

Benefits of remote care management programs:

  • No operational burdens
  • Improved quality of care
  • Improved outcomes
  • Personal touch
  • Technical expertise

Complexities and risks of remote care management implementation

The operational complexity and scope of creating and running successful remote care management programs is a huge barrier for medical practices trying to implement a program on their own. Remote care programs require an extensive upfront investment of time, labor and technological infrastructure – at great cost. A robust program must include a highly technical, reliable system for tracking and documenting patient eligibility and progress through the electronic health record (EHR), as well as a highly technical, reliable system for up to the minute data tracking and reporting to ensure your practice is compliant ready.

A robust program also requires more staff to manage not only the data, but also the increased patient care in a caring, supportive manner. For every 1000 patients, your practice would need to hire 5 full-time staff members – then train them, monitor them and manage all the data systems within the practice. It is a huge undertaking – of cost, time, staff and infrastructure –  for a practice to add on their own.  

  • People – you will need to hire more staff.  5 FTE/1000 patients served
  • Technology – you will need to build highly technical systems that integrate with the EHR, and can extrapolate, track, document and report all data about your practice, patients and programs  – must ensure accurate functionality, patient management and efficient and accurate reporting for compliance
  • Time – staff time, training time, tracking and data analysis time, time building technology and systems
  • Costs – staff costs, training costs, technology and other infrastructure costs

Benefits of remote care management implementation

The right partner will help your practice alleviate these barriers and take care of the personal, technical and clinical sides of remote care management programs – helping to improve outcomes and reduce costs for your practice. Partnering with the experts will help you build and scale successful remote care management programs quickly and efficiently with no extra costs, no upfront costs, and no time or other operational burdens. Remote care programs allow you to combine your partner’s expertise with yours for the most successful remote care management.  

  • No operational barriers – operational, cost (implementation and management) and technology barriers are removed when you partner with remote care management experts
  • Improved quality-of-care – patients receive more personalized and more frequent care with no extra staffing burden on the practice
  • Improved outcomes – remote care maximizes efficiency of your practice and allows for greater focus on patient care
  • Technical Expertise – remote care management partners manage the technical integration, implementation, management and reporting of all your patient programs and data – into ready to go systems with no upfront costs to your practice
