Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)
Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) represents the next generation of healthcare, allowing patients and physicians to be connected like never before. With the help of a suite of medical devices and proper onboarding education, health data for patients with chronic conditions in need of monitoring can be transmitted directly to the doctor to diagnose as they see fit.
This is where InstaMD comes in. We provide full-service RPM wherein we partner with small to medium-sized doctor’s offices to provide 1) onboarding services for patients, 2) integrated medical device technology via our proprietary SmartHub, 3) review of vital data on a periodic basis, and 4) real-time escalations of patient readings to the doctor’s attention and diagnosis when necessary.
Think of InstaMD as a reliable remote doctor’s assistant, bilingual and available for the enhanced care of your patients through RPM technology and support.
