Wait, I thought RTM had to be from home exercises (HEP)

From the market this week - "Wait, I thought RTM had to be from home exercises (HEP)"

NO. This is simply not true, and thank goodness! If it was only HEP, then what would that mean for the pelvic floor patient who needs to track their hydration? Or the stroke patient whose home program is walking outside?

There would be an entire swath of patients that would be left out, and arguably the highest acuity patients like Neuro (stroke, Parkinson's, etc.).

To meet the threshold for RTM the data needs to be "therapeutic data" or data that can help inform the clinician of status outside the home.

This absolutely can be HEP-related. It can also be hydration, steps, gait data, confidence, and a plethora of other data points that influence the care plan.

What questions do you ask during the Subjective portion of your visit that you wish was tracked outside the clinic? Is it pain, confidence, hydration, getting outside, HEP adherence, HEP applicability, or something completely different?

We've been blessed with partners who've helped us build a platform that can apply to the most vanilla hamstring strain to a stroke patients being seen by PT, OT, and Speech.

Could we help augment your clinicians by getting therapeutic data in between visits? How could that information revolutionize and accelerate your care plans?

Let me know in the comments or book time with me directly.
