RPM technology is beginning to mature and gain popularity across
the world, especially in
western countries. Constant innovations, cost-effectiveness 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 technologys
future.
Despite the advantages, the efficacy of RPM is a controversial
topic in the healthcare industry.
Many hospitals and healthcare systems have questioned the
clinical effectiveness of this
technology and are uncertain about the financial returns on
investment in this domain. Investorsare 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.
