Vianova’s Successful RPM Onboarding

Launching and growing your RPM program requires successful patient onboarding, and Vianova understands the importance of this process. Many practices face challenges in effectively onboarding patients due to various reasons, such as limited staff capacity, lack of training on RPM benefits, difficulties in identifying eligible patients, and using EMR to filter patients based on condition. As a result, practices often struggle to achieve their goals of onboarding a significant number of patients and end up with devices sitting on shelves.

Vianova Recognizes the Toughest Onboarding Limitations

Vianova acknowledges that the challenges in successful patient onboarding often revolve around staffing, patient identification, and training. Recognizing that physician offices may not have the extra resources or time to dedicate to RPM, Vianova offers a solution by leveraging a team of RPM experts to assist practices in the onboarding process. With Vianova’s remote onboarding service, growing your RPM program has never been easier.

How Does Vianova’s Remote Onboarding Work?

Vianova’s remote onboarding service aims to educate and engage patients with RPM from the comfort of their own homes. Here’s an overview of the process:

Practice pulls a list of potential RPM patients from their EMR based on condition with support from Vianova.

Vianova screens all patients for insurance eligibility.

Vianova prepares an eligible patient list based on clinical condition, insurance, and engagement with the practice for approval by the practice/provider.

Once approved, Vianova sends a letter to each eligible patient explaining the benefits of RPM.

Vianova follows up with a personal call to educate the patient on how RPM will benefit them based on their condition and obtain program consent.

Upon patient consent, Vianova schedules an onboarding call and ships a kit to the patient containing the RPM device and educational materials.

Vianova conducts the onboarding call, which includes education on how to use the device and expectations for ongoing readings and engagement with the monitoring team.

Patient takes the first reading and is activated.

Vianova believes that whether the onboarding is done in-person or remotely, it sets the stage for successful patient involvement and commitment. During the onboarding process, Vianova focuses on the 5E’s – Educate, Engage, Equip, Encourage, and Empower!

Onsite and Remote Onboarding Can Work Together

Vianova acknowledges that when an RPM-eligible patient is in the office, it presents an opportunity for the practice team to sign them up. Vianova encourages practices to host an Onboarding Event where their implementation experts can assist in onboarding an initial set of patients and provide training to the staff on RPM. Through coaching and feedback during the Onboarding Event, the practice team will gain confidence in engaging with patients about RPM.

Vianova’s remote onboarding is most effective when it is a collaborative effort between the remote onboarding team and the practice. The remote team communicates with patients in a manner that aligns with the practice’s culture, and Vianova works with the practice to create a welcome letter and script for outbound phone calls and text messages.

What Happens after the Onboarding Call?

Vianova emphasizes that onboarding is just the beginning, and it’s crucial to maintain momentum by starting monitoring outreach the very next day. If practices are concerned about limited clinical resources, Vianova offers the option to outsource the monitoring process as well.
