A peer-reviewed ROI study of RPM—focused on hypertension management—found the program yielded a 22.2% return on investment over one year, even with modest patient compliance (~55%) (PMC ROI Study).
FFS Takeaway: When billed under CPT codes 99453, 99454, 99457, and 99458, RPM provides sustained monthly revenue—making patient enrollment a strategic financial move.
A Medicare-based analysis found CCM services delivered by registered nurses generated approximately $332 per enrolled patient per year (95% CI: $234–429), representing authentic, recurring income for practices (PubMed CCM Revenue Study).
FFS Takeaway: Using CCM codes like 99490, 99439, 99487, and 99488, practices can reliably bill for non-visit care each month—creating a solid revenue baseline.
A CMS-commissioned Mathematica evaluation reported that in the first 24 months of Medicare’s CCM rollout, providers billed a staggering $105.8 million in CCM fees, averaging 47 patients enrolled per provider per month—equating to hundreds of dollars in monthly revenue per provider. The full report is available here: https://www.cms.gov/priorities/innovation/files/reports/chronic-care-mngmt-finalevalrpt.pdf.
FFS Takeaway: CCM isn’t theoretical—it’s already generating substantial billing volume across real-world practices.
Bottom Line
Clinical studies demonstrate that RPM and CCM are not just clinically valuable, but also proven revenue generators:
Deploying these programs—especially with just 100 enrolled patients—can unlock hundreds of thousands in annual revenue, while ensuring patients stay connected to your care team.
