CCN Health provides a certified Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) integration with MatrixCare designed specifically for home health agencies, featuring pulse oximetry technology. The platform automates clinical documentation, enables real-time monitoring, and generates Medicare billing records for compliant reimbursement.
Pulse Oximetry for Home Health RTM with MatrixCare
Home Health agencies can enhance their RTM programs with pulse oximetry technology that integrates directly with MatrixCare. FDA-cleared fingertip pulse oximeters from Jumper and Bodytrace measure blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate. The 30-second finger clip reading transmits automatically via cellular gateway to the CCN Health platform.
Why Pulse Oximetry for Home Health
Home Health agencies serve patients receiving skilled nursing or therapy services in their homes, often managing chronic conditions between agency visits. Pulse Oximetry is particularly relevant because:
- 30-second finger clip — simple and non-invasive
- Critical for COPD and respiratory condition management
- Automatic alerts for desaturation (SpO2 < 88%)
How Pulse Oximetry Works
FDA-cleared fingertip pulse oximeters from Jumper and Bodytrace measure blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate. The 30-second finger clip reading transmits automatically via cellular gateway to the CCN Health platform.
Data Captured
- SpO2 (blood oxygen saturation)
- Heart rate
- Perfusion index
- SpO2 trends over time
- Desaturation events
Benefits for Home Health Agencies
Between-Visit Monitoring
Continuous data capture fills the gaps between scheduled home visits with objective vital sign data.
Reduced Hospitalizations
Early alerts enable clinical response before conditions require emergency department visits.
Clinician Efficiency
Automated charting reduces documentation burden, allowing clinicians to focus on direct patient care.
Pulse Oximetry vs. Traditional Approaches
| Factor | Pulse Oximetry | Traditional |
|---|---|---|
| Measurement | SpO2 + HR with auto-upload | Spot check with manual recording |
| Trending | Daily trends and pattern detection | Isolated readings at visits |
| Alert Speed | < 2 min for SpO2 < 88% | No alerting between visits |
| Compliance | One-touch — data auto-transmits | Requires manual logging |
| Clinical Value | Exacerbation prediction via trending | Point-in-time only |
Common Conditions in Home Health
- heart failure
- COPD
- diabetes
- post-surgical
- wound care
- medication management
Billing & Reimbursement
Pulse Oximetry data contributes to RTM billing in home health settings:
| CPT Code | Reimbursement | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| 98975 | ~$19 | Initial setup and patient education for RTM device |
| 98976 | ~$50/mo | 16+ days of respiratory therapy monitoring data |
| 98977 | ~$50/mo | 16+ days of MSK therapy monitoring data |
| 98980 | ~$48/mo | First 20 minutes of treatment management services |
| 98981 | ~$38/mo | Each additional 20 minutes of treatment management |
Monthly potential per patient: $100+

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about implementation, billing, and clinical workflows.
Yes. CCN Health integrates with MatrixCare to deliver monitoring data into post-acute care workflows, supporting RPM and CCM programs across skilled nursing and senior living.
RTM is a Medicare program that uses digital tools to collect non-physiologic, therapy-related data — such as pain levels, medication adherence, and respiratory therapy outcomes — from patients between visits. It's billed under CPT codes 98975-98981.
The RTM CPT codes are 98975 (initial setup), 98976 (respiratory therapy monitoring), 98977 (musculoskeletal therapy monitoring), 98980 (first 20 min treatment management), and 98981 (each additional 20 min).
Home health agencies use RPM to monitor patients between visits, receive real-time alerts for concerning readings, and document care coordination to support billing and compliance.
Connected pulse oximeters measure SpO2 and heart rate, transmitting readings to CCN Health's platform for tracking respiratory and cardiac health trends in patients with COPD, heart failure, and other conditions.
