Podcast: What's RTM and Why Should Rehab Therapists Care?

Course overview

Insights into patient behaviors outside of therapy sessions can provide powerful information to a rehabilitation therapist. In 2022, the opportunity to integrate and be reimbursed for remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) was introduced. Therapists have the opportunity to be reimbursed for time spent setting up, training, and monitoring a patient outside a rehabilitation session. This can have a significant positive impact on patient outcomes. However, integrating this new modality into your workflow and aligning your practice with appropriate documentation and billing require a deep understanding of the purpose of RTM and the expected clinician behavior. This 1-hour podcast will provide listeners with an overview of RTM, discuss intended use, describe myths and barriers, and model best practices for implementation and billing.
