Guided by a leading Endocrinologist, MD Revolution’s clinical leadership team has announced the first fully integrated diabetes care model with real-time continuous glucose monitoring and dynamic care management combined. For the first time, diabetes care with CGM meets Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Chronic Care management (CCM), for proactive, whole-person care.
Built to enhance whole-person care, this latest care management program includes a customizable diabetes assessment, tailored content, targeted protocols and real-time continuous glucose monitoring and data display. Patients and clinicians benefit by using MD Revolution’s RevCare software, or turnkey RevUp clinical services.
Better Tools and Up-To-Date Data Enables Providers to Make More Informed Decisions, Improving Care
By incorporating the latest remote care technology with CGM, providers and care team members have added visibility into patient glucose monitoring data and other metrics to personalize protocols. These integrated tools reduce vital data silos and effectively enhance care.
While Endocrinologists are the go-to specialists for diabetes management, independent physician practices and large health systems alike can now widen their scope of services and enroll diabetes patients at scale into comprehensive CCM and RPM programs. By incorporating continuous glucose monitoring data into treatment plans we can empower patients to participate in their own care. Regardless of setting, providers now have access to a cloud-based tool that seamlessly integrates patient data and decision-making.
For Endocrinologists, this means superior visibility into other disease states that contribute to patients’ A1C. By providing clinical oversight for multiple chronic conditions, this also opens doors for new revenue streams.
Patients Proactively Manage Their Diabetes with Holistic Data & Personalized Support
With access to their comprehensive care plan and easy-to-read glucose monitoring data, all in one place, diabetic patients enrolled in programs like CCM and RPM can stay on track when it comes to glucose monitoring, weight management, and responding to alerts from their care team.
Patients can interact with their care teams across multiple channels – audio call, text messaging, a personalized web-based dashboard, and mobile applications. When patient care coordination and clinical monitoring is provided as an extension of the practice, patients are supported around the clock by health coaches that have advanced training in diabetes care. Connected, expert care has proven to help patients reverse their pre-diabetes or Type 2 diabetes.
RevCare: Optimizing Patient Care and Billing Automation Through Purpose-Built Software
RevCare software users can now make diabetes care management for CGM patients part of their comprehensive remote care offering. With task-based clinical pathways for over 400 conditions and integrations with hundreds of devices, diabetes care is just one component of the wraparound service lines that RevCare is built to enable.
RevCare also automates and optimizes billing across 5 codes, saving valuable time and improving revenue cycle performance.
RevUp: Workforce Challenges Solved While Improving Diabetes Care
With MD Revolution’s full service RevUp program, Endocrinologists gain diabetes-trained support and extra touchpoints to triage diabetic patients’ conditions, reducing the strain on front office staff and allowing providers to operate at the top of their license.
For providers in other specialties, having access to more data may at first seem like a compliance challenge. On the contrary, MD Revolution’s full-service offering is equipped to do the heavy lifting – compliantly.
Director of Clinical Operations, Becky Wagner, MSN, RN, PHN-BC, says that the focal point of developing this new program was ensuring the care pathways provided substantial value to whole-person care, to providers, and to health care overall.
“When we were creating our threshold values and trends protocols, we had to ensure that we set realistic parameters that would avoid creating alert fatigue for ourselves, for patients, and for the overseeing provider,” said Wagner. “We can set our thresholds at a patient level and a practice level, and it’s a relief to providers that we’re looking at this data in real-time. We’re assessing the values; we’re taking action and clinicians are receiving alerts when necessary.”
RN-led clinical teams have advanced training in diabetes care and use CGM data to inform more responsive care plans. Armed with health history, real-time data, and AI-assisted pathways, our clinical teams match the care quality provided in-office, at scale.
“As we monitor more and more CGM patients, we will continue to learn the best approach in how to encourage and educate patients to manage their glucose to the right thresholds. Ultimately, our goal is to prevent episodes from occurring, by making care more patient-centered.”
