Fast, flexible, and easy-to-use remote therapeutic monitoring that pays for itself.
Add $300 per patient with compliant RTM that eliminates manual documentation, makes billing simple, and provides a flexible engagement channel your patients will love.
Reimbursement is shrinking, while costs keep climbing.
Adjusted for inflation in practice costs, Medicare payment declined 33% from 2001 to 2025. At the same time, patients who don’t complete their plan of care experience worse outcomes and reduce practice revenue. With the right RTM setup, you can quickly address these issues.

How It Works
Whether you need to give one of your therapists some flexibility to work from home, prefer that each therapist does their own RTM during cancellations / no-shows, or are slammed and want our patient success coordinators to handle RTM for you, Brightway’s flexibility can support your clinic’s needs.
A dedicated Brightway account manager will help you decide how to best use RTM into your practice, and to adjust over time as needed.
