FAQ
Common questions.
What ICD-10 codes qualify geriatrics patients for RPM?
There are 17 ICD-10 codes that qualify geriatrics patients for Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). These include codes across 9 diagnosis categories: Atrial Fibrillation, Chronic Kidney Disease, COPD, Coronary Artery Disease, Heart Failure, Hypertension, Obesity, Sleep Disorders, Type 2 Diabetes.
How does CCN Health support geriatrics practices with RPM?
CCN Health provides turnkey RPM services for geriatrics practices — including patient eligibility identification, enrollment documentation, device provisioning, clinical monitoring, and full Medicare billing support. Most practices are fully operational within 1 week.
What is the revenue potential for RPM in geriatrics?
RPM generates $97–220+ per patient per month in Medicare reimbursement. Geriatrics practices with a high prevalence of qualifying conditions can scale rapidly, especially when RPM is stacked with other eligible programs like RPM and BHI.
