Texas-based healthcare clinics can enjoy the advantages of a successful remote care program, with the industry's most compliant service provider. | Program Aspect | Details | | --- | --- | | Initiation | For new patients or patients not seen within 1 year prior to the commencement of RPM/CCM, Medicare requires initiation of services during a face-to-face visit with the billing practitioner. Has to be initiated by an Annual Wellness Visit, Initial Preventive Physical Exam, etc. | | Staff Involved | Physicians, Qualified Health Professionals, Clinical Staff | | Billing Cycle | Monthly | | Supervision | General Supervision | | Patient Consent | Required | | Location of Patient | Anywhere outside of the hospital. Does not have to be in an originating site, as it’s typically the case with telehealth services. | | Cost Sharing | Copays and deductibles may apply. | ## Real-time Improved Outcomes & Cost Savings See real-time unnecessary hospital visits avoided and direct savings to Medicare from patients using Accuhealth RPM...   0 Unique Patients 0 Preventable Hospital Visits Avoided   $0M Medicare Savings ## True No-Cost EHR Integration All patient readings and other biometric recordings are sent securely and autonomously from our telemonitoring devices, via their 4G cellular-enabled chips, received from the cloud, stored within our proprietary software platform, and seamlessly integrated back into your existing Electronic Health Record (EHR). Real Data. Real Fields. ### Truly Seamless EHR Integration EHR integration is critical for Remote Patient Monitoring success so that the RPM program can integrate into your current workflow and so that you can easily generate quality reports using the RPM data. Many RPM vendors claim "integration," but in reality all they do is scan PDFs; our integration places readings into true data fields in your EHR. With some EHRs, we can even auto-generate RPM claims. ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_400/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/MC_TABLE_MOCKUP-1.png?noresize) ![App Orchard Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/App%20Orchard%202.png?noresize) ![Greenway Health Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Greenway%202.png?noresize) ![AthenaHealth Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/athena%202.png?noresize) ![Allscripts Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Allscripts%202.png?noresize) ![Kareo Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Kareo%202.png?noresize) ![Nextgen Healthcare Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Nextgen%20Healthcare.png?noresize) ![Cerner Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_417/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/cerner_logo.png?noresize) ![WRSHealth Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_726/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Partner%20Logos/WRSHealth.png?noresize) ![Epic Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_175/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Epic_Systems2-2.png?noresize) ![Practice Fusion Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_819/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Partner%20Logos/PracticeFusion.png?noresize) ![Dr. Chrono Logo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dmfduiboy/image/fetch/fl_immutable_cache%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%2Ccs_tinysrgb%2Cw_356/https://www.accuhealth.tech/hubfs/Partner%20Logos/Dr%20Chrono.png?noresize) ## Texas Medicaid Billing Codes We bill you every month for the previous month's work.
