Traditional RPM matters in healthcare; it’s a way to get essential patient data from the home, most commonly via Bluetooth-connected blood pressure cuffs, EKG devices, scales and the like. Yet it’s expensive, including requiring a cellular plan to move the data, many patients are not habitual about utilizing these personal devices, and using the devices can be distant from any type of medical appointment they might have when the data is relevant.

Contactless RPM is far lower cost, and in the case of the LiverRight implementation, requires no home devices.  In fact, it’s the camera in the very telemedicine visits between the LiverRight provider and the patient that picks up the key health data in real time.

These contactless RPM metrics include heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, and more, and it requires explicit patient consent in each visit to be utilized.
