Remote Patient Monitoring Accreditation in Egypt
"Virtual health" or "digital health" encompasses the overall procedures of the industry, including the technology and methods used to provide care for patients. Underneath the umbrella terms, remote patient monitoring (RPM) utilizes technology to facilitate communication between patients at home and health care providers. When your organization offers RPM, patients with more critical health conditions can receive the care they need while staying safe at home.
Although the U.S. Food and Drug Administration certifies RPM devices and several standards-setting bodies have developed security and related requirements, URAC’s Remote Patient Monitoring Accreditation Program is the first comprehensive set of standards created to assess many key aspects of an RPM program.
