Many health care organizations have considered instituting a Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) program, but have run into challenges in implementation of this new discipline. The National Consortium of Telehealth Resource Centers August 17th webinar offered insights into the value of RPM and debuted a toolkit aimed at helping organizations implement a program. The presentation started with a discussion on the value of RPM and its implementation, then moved on to an exciting new toolkit developed by the Mid-Atlantic and Northwest Telehealth Resource Centers. Listen to the archive to learn about RPM implementation.

The intent of NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) continues to be recognition of primary care practice models that have achieved a mature level of transformation toward improving population health; improving the experience of care for both patient and provider; and reducing the cost of care through greater efficiencies of integrated patient-centered care coordination.   The redesigned process uniquely positions practices, staff and other key stakeholders to focus more on performance and quality improvement, and alignment with public and private initiatives in health care that reward value-based care.  

During this webinar, we highlighted the NCQA PCMH Core and Elective criteria. We also focused on advanced topics such as the Distinction Modules and eCQMs, and then ended the learning session by taking a deeper dive to discuss the integral role pre-validated health IT plays in practice transformation and physician alignment with public and private payer programs that reward for value-based care.
