RTM Implementation Checklist: Is Your Practice Ready?

A readiness checklist for successfully launching RTM in your practice

Most patient recovery happens between visits, away from the clinic and your team's direct support. Remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) extends your range of care into that gap, keeping patients on track with their home exercises and giving clinicians visibility into what's happening between appointments.

Properly launching RTM takes coordination across your practice. The choice of platform, the delivery model, the billing setup, and the team training all have to work together before the first patient enrolls.

This free checklist walks you through what to plan for at every phase of a successful RTM rollout.

The RTM Implementation Phases

Phase 1: Prep

Evaluate your platform, choose your delivery model, and set the goals that shape everything downstream.
  • Your platform supports data capture and billing-ready monthly reporting
  • Delivery model chosen: in-house staff or a turnkey remote clinical support service
  • RTM goals defined with measurable targets for outcomes, adherence, and revenue

Phase 2: Launch

Design clinical workflows, prepare billing, and get your team ready before your first patient enrolls.
  • Eligible patient populations defined with documented criteria
  • Billing team has reviewed RTM CPT codes, thresholds, and payer coverage
  • At least one clinical champion identified to lead adoption

Phase 3: Optimize

Build the review and action cadence that keeps RTM working past month three.
  • Performance reviewed against the goals set in Phase 1
  • Patient engagement data reviewed regularly to flag patients needing outreach
  • Billing reviewed monthly to confirm code thresholds are met

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my practice is ready for RTM?

Work through the checklist and mark the items already in place or planned. Open items are the gaps to address before or during launch. If most items are in place, the remaining work is making sure your team understands why RTM matters for patients. If several are still open, make those your priorities before launch. Inconsistent workflows and gaps in clinician education are the most common reasons RTM underperforms on adoption and outcomes.

What do I need in place before launching RTM?

Start with a platform that supports data capture and billing-ready monthly reporting, with a mobile app patients use for their home exercise program. Choose a delivery model: in-house staff or a turnkey service that provides remote clinical support. Then define your goals and eligible patient populations, have your billing team review the applicable RTM CPT codes and payer coverage, and train clinicians on the RTM workflow.

Who should lead RTM implementation in a clinic?

RTM touches clinical, billing, and leadership teams, so leadership and clinicians should agree on what success looks like before launch. Identify at least one clinical champion to lead adoption, and hold regular project team reviews that produce action items with assigned owners.

How do I keep RTM working after launch?

Review performance against the goals you set during prep, with reporting configured by role for clinical, billing, and leadership teams. Review patient engagement data regularly to flag patients who need outreach, review billing monthly to confirm code thresholds are met, and track enrollment trends to find growth opportunities.
