With National Kidney Month in full swing, one important question in kidney care is not only how treatment is delivered, but what helps sustain it over time.

In automated peritoneal dialysis (APD), technique survival goes to the heart of treatment sustainability. When it is lost, patients may need to switch modality, bringing added disruption to routine and a break in established care relationships.

In a 2024 prospective multicenter cohort study across 16 Spanish hospitals, Centellas-Pérez et al. found that patients on automated peritoneal dialysis who received remote patient monitoring were more likely to remain successfully within their current therapeutic pathway.

RPM isn't only about visibility. It can also be about sustaining treatment in practice.

Spring is in the air, and summer is not far behind. For many practices, that means a familiar challenge is coming too: vacations, travel, and shifting routines can lead to missed appointments, delayed follow-up, and gaps in care.

Last August, we looked at how practices can respond to that disruption through reminders, check-ins, and coordinated chronic care support.

The earlier practices prepare for summer routine changes, the easier it is to maintain continuity before gaps begin to grow.

Remote care begins by answering a single question: how is a patient’s health evolving between visits?

As readings begin to flow, care teams gain a clearer, more continuous view of patient health between appointments.

Chronic care requires structured, specialized engagement with patients as their needs change over time. This is where Chronic Care Management (CCM) plays a vital role.

CCM creates a framework for ongoing chronic care coordination, helping clinical teams support patients day-to-day living with multiple conditions, treatments, and care plans while selectively leveraging remote monitoring signals.

In a recent Remote Care in Practice on-demand webinar, Vivo Care Medical Director Aamir Iqbal, MD, highlighted:

“The combining of RPM for the actual data plus what is happening with our patients on a day-to-day basis is so valuable.”

🩵 At Vivo Care, our CCM program delivery has grown more than tenfold over the past year.

We support practices at every stage of their evolution. To explore stronger chronic care coordination, book a free consult at the link below:

2 days.

That's all CMS now requires for a fully reimbursable remote patient monitoring claim.

For the 37 million American adults living with chronic kidney disease, the gap between appointments is often where things change. Remote patient monitoring exists to help close that gap. And until this year, flexibility was limited.

Before 2026, RPM device supply codes required 16 days of readings within a 30-day period. That changed this year. A new CPT code (99445) covers device supply and data transmission for just 2–15 days of readings. And: CMS reimburses it at the same rate as the standard 16–30 day code.

For nephrologists and care teams who already know where shorter monitoring windows make clinical sense, the reimbursement pathway now exists to support them.

🩺 Kidney care is shaped by a broader network of chronic conditions and clinical teams.

Patients living with chronic kidney disease are often managing hypertension, diabetes, and obesity at the same time, making coordinated care across specialties essential.

As we mark National Kidney Month with the National Kidney Foundation, it’s a reminder that better day-to-day clinical visibility into patient data can help change the trajectory of kidney disease.

Last year in the Vivo Care blog we explored how remote patient monitoring (RPM) is helping nephrology teams close the gap between appointments. Connected devices capture readings such as blood pressure, glucose, and weight, giving clinicians a clearer picture of how patients are managing their condition.

📊 Evidence links RPM in nephrology with better blood pressure control, fewer hospitalizations among dialysis patients, and reductions in emergency department visits.

The scale of patient data captured through remote care programs is vast, and growing.

Last week we shared some numbers from our own programs. This week we’re sharing more to highlight the clinical engagement that turns those signals into care.

Across 2023–2025, Vivo Care delivered more than 25.9 million minutes of engagement, helping patients stay connected to care between visits.

Behind those minutes are dedicated nursing teams whose work helps translate remote monitoring into meaningful clinical care every day.

Remote monitoring creates the signals.
Clinical engagement shapes the outcomes.

Heart health is shaped by many numbers ❤️

One of the most consequential may be 27 mm Hg.

That is the average systolic spike caused by the white coat effect, according to Franklin et al. Not disease progression. Not medication failure. The clinical environment itself 🏥

A temporary surge in the office can quietly become a lasting adjustment in treatment.

Each February, the American Heart Association shines a light on prevention, risk awareness, and early detection 💙 That focus matters. But detection is only as strong as the data behind it, and a single office reading offers only a narrow window into a dynamic condition.

Effective hypertension management depends on patterns over time 📊 Baseline. Context. Continuity. Without that longitudinal view, clinicians are often making decisions on incomplete information rather than sustained trends.

In our latest blog, Remote Patient Monitoring for Hypertension & White Coat Syndrome, we break down the prevalence of white coat hypertension, what it means for medication decisions, and how structured RPM enhances clinical clarity.

If awareness is the first step, precision is the next.

Last August, we published a blog on increasing scrutiny around remote care programs.
👉 https://vivocaresolutions.com/blog/oig-increases-scrutiny-medicare-rpm-what-providers-need-to-know/

Utilization had grown rapidly, and oversight was beginning to reflect that growth 🔍. The conversation was no longer limited to innovation or outcomes. It shifted toward documentation, billing structure, and whether programs were designed in a way that could withstand review.

In 2026, that shift is even clearer.

Our updated Remote Care Billing & Coding Guide reflects the evolution of reimbursement models and the growing importance of clarity within dynamic CMS frameworks 📘.

Remote care is no longer an experimental add-on. It is becoming part of long-term care strategy 🏥. As models expand and flexibility increases, precision and defined pathways matter more than ever.

Healthcare organizations are judged by how they handle pressure, moment to moment and patient to patient. 🩺

As demand increases, growth introduces new operational challenges. 📈

In 2025, Vivo Care supported clinic partners with 85 U.S.-based nurses. Today, that team exceeds 130. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

Scaling at that pace multiplies clinical interactions and increases the exchange of protected health information. 🔐

Secure communication became a clear operational priority. In partnership with , encrypted communication was deployed across our clinical team and fully operational within 24 hours. ⏱️

✔️ Seamless partner access
✔️ Protected patient data
✔️ Care delivery uninterrupted

Security forms the foundation. Clinical excellence and human connection build on it. 🤝

Hypertension is one of the most persistent drivers of cardiovascular risk in the United States ❤️

It rarely announces itself in a single moment. It accumulates quietly over time.

Managing it well means seeing patterns across readings, not reacting to isolated numbers 📈

Between 2023 and 2025, Vivo Care processed more than 15.3 million blood pressure readings within live RPM and CCM programs.

In 2025 alone:
• 5,459,982 readings captured
• Nearly 15,000 readings per day

At this scale, hypertension care becomes more than devices or check-ins. It becomes a system 🩺 where high-frequency data, clinical oversight, and patient engagement work together over time.

During American Heart Month ❤️, the focus is on prevention and awareness. More broadly, the challenge is strengthening continuity and coordination in cardiovascular care.

Vivo Care is proud to support that work at scale.

❤️ Roughly every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a heart attack.

It’s a stark statistic from the American Heart Association, and it motivates their Nation of Lifesavers™ initiative.

This American Heart Month, Vivo Care is proud to support it.

But readiness doesn’t happen by accident. It requires a system:

📋 A clear emergency protocol
⚡ Accessible AEDs
👥 Trained responders
✅ A plan that’s been practiced

That’s exactly what a Cardiac Emergency Response Plan (CERP) is designed to build in workplaces, schools, and communities everywhere. Survival improves when response is coordinated, not chaotic.

🔗 Learn more here: https://bit.ly/46iMOOV

Hands-only CPR strengthens response in the moment. A CERP strengthens the system around it. At Vivo Care, our focus is what comes before both, supporting heart health so fewer emergencies happen in the first place.

Every training session. Every health check. Every conversation about prevention.

That’s how a Nation of Lifesavers™ is built. ❤️

❤️ Throwback Thursday | American Heart Month

Last August, we published a blog highlighting research on remote patient monitoring and its role in improving hypertension care.

The takeaway remains timely: when care is continuous, connected, and coordinated beyond the clinic walls, patients see meaningful progress.

For these and other conditions, these are the principles we build from at VivoCare.
