RPM technology is beginning to mature and gain popularity across the world, especially in

western countries. Constant innovations, cost-e�ectiveness and health benefits are attracting

investments in this domain. Added to this, public receptivity and legal, regulatory as well as

reimbursement issues are expected to shape the technology’s future.

Despite the advantages, the e�cacy of RPM is a controversial topic in the healthcare industry. 

Many hospitals and healthcare systems have questioned the clinical e�ectiveness of this

technology and are uncertain about the financial returns on investment in this domain. Investors

are betting that new federal requirements and changes in how doctors get paid will force

hospitals to buy more RPM gadgets to help watch over and care for patients outside the hospital

setting. Therefore, there is a possibility of many small size companies sprouting with various

innovations to meet this demand. As a result, heavy investments are expected in the near future.
