Creating More Efficient Case Management for Healthcare Providers
Improving Health Outcomes for Patients
Unlocking Value for Hospitals, Physicians, and Other Care Providers
Our healthcare system is stressed, healthcare providers feel the pressure to optimize care so that it can be delivered more efficiently while achieving the best possible health outcomes. Health plans reimburse providers based on their ability to meet quality benchmarks. Hospitals are required to reduce the length of stay and readmissions. Workers are leaving the healthcare field due to burnout and increasingly complex administrative requirements.

UTMHealthcare’s Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) system enables providers to do more with less… to care for more patients in a setting where those patients would rather be: Home.
Using HIPAA-compliant secure technology, UTMHealthcare’s RPM system allows patients to take daily measurements, submit vital signs, and answer essential health questions from home. Care managers have access to a dashboard where they can easily and safely track the status of all patients. This data enables remote care managers to best advise their patients.
RPM enables advanced health monitoring for cardiac disease, COPD, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses. It can also be used to monitor pain and medication management. RPM is a sophisticated tool for use by various clinicians to manage numerous health conditions.

Q: How do you think the patients feel about the program and the equipment?
A: …it’s very impressive, patients get instant feedback on their phone. I’ve had people say, “Oh, I didn’t think it would be this simple to do.” So that’s very positive.
Q: Have the doctors, their primary care doctors, been impressed with the results? Are they happy to see this going on? Do they see a benefit?
A: That’s a very helpful part of this program.
I only send data (to medical staff) when it’s abnormal. I’m never notifying or sending data that’s normal, except when I send the monthly report. Sometimes a patient will say ‘Oh, my pressure was high this morning, I’m going to retake it. Or… ‘I didn’t like it, so I redid it.’ Or ‘my pulse ox was great, but I took the garbage out and came back short of breath so I did it again.
Q: …how would you describe the support you’ve gotten from our end?
A: I have always had a very quick professional response from UTMH. If there’s an issue, I have never had them delay trying to fix it. I’m ecstatic at how well the staff is trained and how quickly they respond and how quickly they try to fix the issue. I’ve never had to have to call back and say ‘Hey, what’s going on? Why isn’t this fixed?”
