Maximizing the profitability of your chronic care management (CCM) program hinges on effective cost containment during implementation. A robust CCM initiative not only lightens the workload for your nursing staff but also averts call overload by introducing a dedicated 24/7 triage team. Moreover, it can bolster your Medicare reimbursement rates – an area where our knowledgeable staff can provide tailored insights based on your specific circumstances.
Collaborating with First Remote Health Resources ensures that program management costs remain fixed, affording your clinic and our on-site account managers the opportunity to concentrate on presenting the program to patients while maintaining their existing responsibilities. Outsourcing CCM services eliminates the time-consuming aspects of hiring, training, and researching software or Electronic Health Record (EHR) compatibility with coding requirements. This alleviates the ongoing administrative burden associated with program management and secures long-term sustainability for the program.

Many clinics find that partnering with First Remote Health Resources is a strategic choice for outsourcing these services, as opposed to shouldering the entire project in-house. First Remote Health Resources simplifies the process by handling critical aspects such as:
This leaves your clinic free to focus on patient care and program success.
