What is Remote Therapeutic Monitoring? I’m glad you asked 😊
RTM allows physical therapists to monitor patient therapy adherence, exercise compliance, and treatment response between visits using digital tools.
CMS expanded RTM significantly for 2026 with new CPT codes and lower billing thresholds, making it more accessible and profitable than ever for PT practices.
Why RTM for Physical Therapy?
✓ Only ~30% of PT patients adhere to home exercise programs
— RTM closes this gap
✓ Generates new monthly recurring revenue per patient beyond in-clinic visits
✓ Improves patient outcomes and reduces cancellations/no-shows
✓ 2026 CMS updates lowered thresholds: bill with as few as 2 days of data and 10 minutes of
management time
✓ PTs, OTs, SLPs, and their assistants are all eligible to bill RTM codes
