FOR YOUR PRACTICE

Primary care

Connect chronic conditions, home readings, transitions, and behavioral-health needs to the patient’s primary-care plan.

RELEVANT PATHWAYS

Which kind of between-visit help do our patients need?

Start with the clinical problem. Choose time-based care management or the full primary-care bundle where appropriate; add monitoring only when its separate clinical and payment requirements fit.

Check this before choosing a programAPCM requires the full model, including practice-level urgent access and reporting. Purchasing outreach or a device alone does not establish APCM. The agreed PrimeVital staffing hours must be specified separately.

EXAMPLES FOR YOUR SETTING

Start with a real need in your practice.

These scenarios show what to evaluate, rather than automatically assign a program or approve reimbursement.

Diabetes and heart failure

Consider CCM for medicines, referrals, and a shared plan. Useful home readings may justify a separate RPM assessment.

A primary-care home

Consider APCM when access, coordination, electronic planning, population management, and performance reporting are in place.

Returning from hospital

Assess TCM eligibility and deadlines before assuming the follow-up is a separate transition claim.

ONE ILLUSTRATIVE RPM JOURNEY

See the patient, practitioner, and support roles.

Meet Maria: her primary-care clinician wants a clearer picture of her blood pressure between appointments.

RPM stages

Choose patients

Before enrollment
Patient / caregiver
Decides whether to join and understands possible costs.
Treating practice
Confirms medical need, an established relationship, goals, and the payer pathway.
PrimeVital’s agreed role
Coordinates onboarding and consent documentation within the agreed workflow.
What gets recorded
Clinical reason, consent, responsible practitioner, and coverage checks.

The sample goal

Understand Maria’s blood-pressure trend and help her follow the treatment plan.

YOUR INVOLVEMENT

Agree on responsibilities before the first patient starts.

Your organization

Your practitioner selects patients, directs the plan, makes treatment decisions, responds to clinical escalations, and approves final documentation and claims.

PrimeVital’s agreed support

The full care arrangement can include applicable devices and a care-management team. We help organize enrollment, follow-up, records, and billing handoffs. Interactly can support front-desk scheduling and messages.

Service hours, professional qualifications, technology, integrations, records access, and fees are confirmed in the engagement. Front-desk automation handles agreed administrative tasks; clinical judgment and claims remain with the responsible qualified professionals.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

A practical launch checklist.

  1. Select patients based on clinical need and payer, not diagnosis counts alone.
  2. Name the clinical and billing owner; complete initiating visits and consent where required.
  3. Maintain plans, access arrangements, follow-up, and escalation responsibilities.
  4. Agree on care-team credentials, supervision, service hours, records access, and billing handoffs.
  5. Check other practitioners, bundled contracts, and services already paid for.

PAYMENT & FINANCIAL PICTURE

Who gets paid, and what does the practice spend?

The eligible practice submits supported professional claims or follows its payer contract. PrimeVital is paid through its service agreement. CCM and APCM are choices to evaluate, not automatic payments to stack for the same work.

Illustrative RPM model

These starting figures are hypothetical. They are not Medicare rates, a PrimeVital quote, or a payment forecast. Replace them with your verified contract, service mix, and cost assumptions.

One monthly service period
Do not assume every enrollment earns every possible service.
Include only the selected, supported services and collectible payer/patient amounts.
Reduce this for unpaid claims, denials, and uncollected balances.
Service, device, and practice costs
Illustrative agreement: fees apply to enrolled patients, even if a service does not qualify for payment.
Leave at zero if already included in the service fee. Avoid counting it twice.
Shown separately from recurring operating costs.

35 of 50 patients meet the assumed service requirements.

Collections
$3,500
Operating costs
$2,150
Contribution
$1,350

$1,750 service fees + $0 additional device costs + $400 practice costs.

Contribution is before other overhead and taxes. Actual billing uses service-level evidence and rules; this simplified model does not select codes, approve eligibility, or guarantee outcomes. Patient cost sharing and QMB protections must be checked separately.

BENEFITS TO TRACK

Choose a baseline and a review date.

Agree on the measures that matter to your patients and team.

Sources and scope

Reviewed October 7, 2026. Practice type alone does not establish clinical eligibility or payment. Detailed program pages maintain the code references; use the patient’s actual payer, professional, setting, and date of service.
