Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) is here — and it’s already paying off for clinics that know how to use it. In this episode, we talk with Griffin Shimkus, co-founder of RelayRTM, a platform helping PTs and healthcare providers bill for the care they’re already delivering.
You'll learn how Griffin built a no-cost, no-risk platform, what Medicare’s 2026 reimbursement expansion means for your practice, and why RTM isn’t just about billing—it’s about improving outcomes.
Whether you’re already billing for RTM or still figuring it out, this episode is packed with actionable insights.
