CCN Health provides a certified Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) integration with August Health designed specifically for long-term care facilities. The platform automates clinical documentation, enables real-time monitoring, and supports the ordering physician's Medicare billing for compliant reimbursement.
Remote Patient Monitoring for Long-Term Care with August Health
Long-Term Care facilities face unique challenges managing resident health: providing consistent monitoring for residents with chronic conditions over extended stays and reducing avoidable hospitalizations and er transfers. CCN Health's RPM integration with August Health addresses these challenges with automated monitoring, documentation, and billing support.
Long-Term Care Challenges That RPM Addresses
- Providing consistent monitoring for residents with chronic conditions over extended stays
- Reducing avoidable hospitalizations and ER transfers
- Maintaining comprehensive care documentation over months or years
- Managing staffing constraints while ensuring clinical oversight
How It Works in Long-Term Care
- Device Assignment — FDA-cleared devices (blood pressure cuffs, scales, pulse oximeters, or contactless monitors) are assigned to the patient
- Automatic Data Capture — Vitals transmit via cellular gateway to the CCN Health platform without manual entry
- August Health Integration — Data flows directly into August Health resident records via api integration
- Clinical Alerts — Abnormal readings trigger real-time notifications to care staff within 2 minutes
- Documentation & Billing Support — CPT codes 99453, 99454, 99457, 99458 generated and routed to the ordering physician's practice EHR for billing

Clinical Benefits for Long-Term Care
Chronic Disease Management
Monitor residents with conditions like heart failure, diabetes, COPD, hypertension. Trending data helps care teams adjust care plans before conditions deteriorate.
Transition of Care Support
When residents return from hospital stays, RPM enables closer monitoring during the critical post-discharge period.
Billing & Reimbursement Support in Long-Term Care
CCN Health's clinical documentation supports the ordering physician's Medicare RPM billing. The following CPT codes apply to the RPM program — billing is submitted by the physician practice, not the facility:
| CPT Code | Reimbursement | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| 99453 | ~$19 | One-time device setup and patient education |
| 99454 | ~$50/mo | 16+ days of readings per 30-day period |
| 99457 | ~$48/mo | First 20 minutes of clinical monitoring time |
| 99458 | ~$38/mo | Each additional 20 minutes of clinical time |
Monthly potential per resident: $120+
Note: Medicare RPM claims are submitted by the ordering physician through their practice EHR. August Health receives clinical documentation that supports care coordination and survey readiness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about implementation, billing, and clinical workflows.
Yes. CCN Health integrates with August Health to deliver RPM data directly into resident records, supporting senior care practices with automated vital sign documentation.
RPM uses FDA-cleared connected devices to collect patient vitals—such as blood pressure, weight, and glucose—outside of traditional clinical settings, enabling proactive care and early intervention.
