Monitor treatment response, patient-reported data and experience, side effects, medication adherence and more between patient visits and across specialties. Increase net patient revenue and add up to $180 per patient, per month with Actuvi.
Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) allows providers to bill for monitoring patient-reported, non-physiological data, such as pain levels, mood scores, exercise completion, therapy adherence, and more, between visits. CMS introduced the first RTM billing codes in 2022 for musculoskeletal and respiratory conditions. In 2024, it added cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In 2026, it expanded the code set again, lowering billing thresholds and adding two new CPT codes that make RTM accessible to a wider range of patients and clinical workflows.
RTM has dedicated CPT codes for musculoskeletal, respiratory, and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Pain and orthopedic clinics monitor how patients respond to prescribed therapy. Patients log pain scores and activity levels daily, giving care teams a reliable, day-by-day picture between visits. Actuvi tracks medication adherence and flags opioid risk along the way.
How pain clinics use ActuviPulmonology and respiratory clinics monitor medication adherence, response to the prescribed plan, rehab completion, perceived exertion, and dyspnea across COPD, asthma, and pulmonary rehab. Per-question thresholds flag worsening symptoms for early outreach.
How respiratory clinics use ActuviBehavioral and mental health clinics monitor mood, sleep, anxiety, and depression between sessions, with standardized measures like PHQ-9 and GAD-7 on scheduled cadences. Care teams see how patients are doing before the next appointment.
How behavioral clinics use ActuviThe use cases of RTM go beyond those three. Actuvi configures custom assessments and monitoring tracks for oncology, primary care, rheumatology, OB-GYN, cardiology, and more.
Actuvi's platform meets FDA requirements for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), enabling clinics to bill for RTM using established CPT codes.
RTM is billed under codes for setup, device supply and data, and treatment management time. Actuvi tracks the time and generates the billing report for each code.
| CPT code | Description | Billing frequency | Reimbursement |
|---|---|---|---|
| 98975 | Initial set-up and patient education | Once per episode | $21.71 |
| 98984/5/6 | RTM device and data transmission (2-15 days) | Once every 30 days | $51.44 |
| 98976/7/8 | RTM device and data transmission (16-30 days) | Once every 30 days | $51.44 |
| 98979 | First 10-19 minutes of RTM treatment management | Once per calendar month | $26.39 |
| 98980 | First 20 minutes of RTM treatment management | Once per calendar month | $54.11 |
| 98981 | Each additional 20 minutes of RTM treatment management | Multiple times per calendar month | $41.42 |
Reimbursement varies by region and billing code. Figures shown are national averages.
“Integrating Actuvi into our clinic transformed how we care for patients.”
Actuvi builds your digital organization on the platform so you can improve patient outcomes, increase net patient revenue, and supplement in-clinic care with remote monitoring.
Actuvi meets FDA requirements for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), so clinics bill RTM under established CPT codes with confidence.
Build custom assessments and custom exercise plans, upload custom workout videos as part of a plan, and monitor completion rates and how patients follow them, all inside Actuvi.
Daily monitoring, personalized reminders, and configurable threshold alerts surface warning signs early so the care team can act before the next visit.
Patients use the Actuvi mobile app to reach the care team, view their data, get monitoring reminders, and join telehealth visits.
Actuvi runs active integrations with the health apps, wearables, records, and devices clinics already use, including Apple Health, Google Fit, Whoop, EHRs, EMRs, and more.
A dashboard to monitor the patient population, manage the care team, and generate billing reports, with every care action recorded to show data-driven care.
Scheduled visits miss what happens in between. Continuous monitoring captures pain, fatigue, sleep, mood, symptoms, and more as they develop, then turns that data into action. When a reading crosses a patient's threshold, Actuvi alerts the care team so they can step in early.
Actuvi builds the program, trains the teams, and supports go-live and beyond.
Actuvi builds the custom monitoring program and the clinic's organization on the platform, mapped to its care pathways.
Actuvi sets up patient tracks, custom assessments, and exercise plans around the clinic's treatment goals and the data points the care team wants to track.
Actuvi trains the admin, clinical, and billing teams so monitoring and reimbursement run smoothly from day one.
Patients get a mobile app for access, communication, monitoring reminders, and telehealth visits.
Actuvi automates time tracking, alerts and escalations, scheduling, compliance, and billing reports.
Actuvi provides ongoing support and weekly program reports so the clinic can see performance and revenue.
Approximate, based on up to $180 per patient per month with RTM. Actual reimbursement depends on the codes billed and patient compliance. Actuvi maps this to a clinic's patient population on a demo.
