Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) CPT codes were developed to represent general medicine codes that capture non-physiological data. Unlike Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) services which are restricted to providers that can bill for evaluation and management services, RTM was created to capture services provided by practitioners that cannot report evaluation and management services. RTM services require the use of an FDA-defined medical device to collect non-physiological data. This webinar by our expert speaker Toni Elhoms will drill down into these coding updates extensively, highlight the key differences between RTM and RPM services, and provide you with tangible information that can be put into action immediately.
