Private practice physical therapy owners and Medicare-based clinics are leaving revenue on the table. Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) can add $150–$200 per patient plan of care while improving compliance and outcomes — without adding more in-person visits.
In this episode, Jimmy sits down with travel PT Matt Zurich to break down RTM in plain language. What are the actual codes? How does billing work? What software is required? And is this realistic inside a busy outpatient clinic?
If you’ve heard about RTM but keep pushing it off because it feels overwhelming, this conversation is your starting point.
RTM isn’t a fad. The codes exist. CMS recognizes them. The question is whether your clinic is ready to implement it strategically.
You’ll learn:
• What RTM actually is (no jargon)
• How Medicare reimbursement works with RTM codes
• What patients gain from remote monitoring
• How to implement RTM without burning out staff
• What kind of revenue lift is realistic per PT
