What Happens After You Say Yes?
Becoming a Carevo partner is designed to be simple. Most practices begin with a small pilot of 10–20 eligible Medicare patients, allowing your team to experience the workflow before expanding.
Your physicians continue practicing medicine exactly as they do today while Carevo becomes the nurse-led team supporting patients between office visits.
There is no complicated implementation, no workflow disruption, and no need to hire additional staff.
Below is exactly how Carevo supports your practice — from identifying eligible patients to delivering structured weekly physician reports.
Identify Eligible Patients
We work alongside your practice to identify Medicare patients with qualifying chronic conditions who are appropriate candidates for Remote Patient Monitoring. Your physicians remain in complete control of patient selection — Carevo supports the process, not replaces the clinical judgment behind it.
Most independent practices have more eligible patients than they realize. Heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, and other qualifying conditions are common in Medicare panels, and RPM can begin with as few as 10–20 patients while your practice evaluates the model.
Patient Enrollment
Carevo guides eligible patients through enrollment — obtaining required consent, explaining the program clearly, coordinating device delivery, and ensuring every patient understands how monitoring works before participation begins.
Patients speak directly with a Carevo nurse during onboarding. This is not an automated process or a portal form. It is a clinical conversation that sets expectations and builds patient confidence from day one.
- Consent documentation handled by Carevo
- Device shipped directly to patient's home
- Nurse-led onboarding call to confirm setup and answer questions
- Baseline readings established before formal monitoring begins
What Your First
30 Days Look Like.
Most practices are onboarded and actively monitoring patients within 2–3 weeks. Here's exactly what to expect.
Your team's involvement during onboarding is minimal — patient identification and a 15-minute setup call. We handle the rest.
Daily Between-Visit Monitoring
Our nurse-led team reviews transmitted physiological data, watches for meaningful clinical trends, and proactively monitors patient health between office visits — every day, not just when something goes wrong.
Patients are monitored by experienced nurses — not simply connected to technology. The devices transmit data. Carevo nurses interpret it, identify emerging patterns, and act on what they find before a problem becomes a crisis.
- Daily data review for all enrolled patients
- Trend tracking across weight, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and glucose
- Risk stratification updated weekly using Carevo's Continuity Index
- All monitoring logged to support billing documentation requirements
The Carevo
Continuity Index.
Every enrolled patient is classified weekly into one of three risk levels. This tells your team exactly who needs attention — and who doesn't.
Vitals within range, readings consistent, patient responsive. Routine monitoring continues — no action required from your team.
- Vitals within target range
- Device readings consistent
- Patient responding to check-ins
Subtle changes emerging. Carevo increases monitoring frequency and attempts re-engagement before deterioration accelerates.
- Weight gain 2–3 lbs over 2–3 days
- O₂ saturation trending downward
- Response time slowing to 24–48 hrs
Multiple risk signals present. Your team receives a structured escalation alert with full context so you can intervene before a hospitalization.
- Weight gain 4+ lbs, O₂ below threshold
- No device readings for 3+ days
- Patient-reported symptom escalation
Clinical Outreach
When appropriate, our nurses contact patients directly to reinforce the care plan, assess symptoms, answer clinical questions, and identify any barriers that may be affecting adherence or health status.
This is structured clinical communication — not a check-in script read by a call center. Every interaction is logged, documented, and available to your physicians as part of the weekly summary.
- Reinforce physician care plans between visits
- Assess symptoms and changes in patient status
- Answer patient questions within clinical scope
- Encourage medication adherence and healthy behaviors
- Identify barriers to treatment and communicate them to your team
Clinical Escalation
When physician attention is required, Carevo prepares a concise clinical summary — not a raw alert, not a device notification. Your team receives structured information that tells them exactly what changed, what we observed, what we have already done, and why physician review is recommended.
Your practice focuses on medicine. Carevo handles the monitoring. When those two intersect, the handoff is clean and clinical.
- What changed — specific vital trends and observations
- Clinical context — timeline of recent data
- Interventions completed — what Carevo has already done
- Recommended next step — what physician review should address
Billing-Ready Documentation
Every patient interaction is documented to support compliant Medicare RPM billing under your practice's NPI. Documentation is organized, complete, and structured to meet the requirements of established CPT codes including 99454, 99457, and 99458.
Your practice submits claims and receives reimbursement directly. Carevo invoices you as the clinical service partner. You retain full billing control — Carevo provides structured documentation to support the practice's billing workflow.
- All clinical contact time logged per patient per month
- Documentation organized by CPT code requirements
- Delivered monthly in a format your billing team can use
- Your practice bills under your NPI — Carevo never bills directly
Weekly Practice Summary
Each week, Carevo delivers a structured physician report summarizing patient activity, clinical outreach, escalations, and patients requiring follow-up.
Your practice gains visibility without reviewing raw RPM data or adding administrative work.

An extension of your clinical team — not home health and not another software-only tool.
Carevo sits between your practice and your highest-risk patients — handling the between-visit clinical work that your staff doesn't have capacity to manage. Structured, documented, and reimbursable through established Medicare codes.

- + Medicare RPM reimbursement for care already being provided
- + Earlier visibility into concerning changes between office visits
What Carevo
Does Not Do
Understanding what Carevo is not is just as important as understanding what it is.
- ✗ Your physicians or their clinical judgment
- ✗ Emergency care or acute intervention
- ✗ Home health services or in-person care
- ✗ Your EHR or existing clinical systems
- ✗ Your existing nurses or in-office staff
- ✗ The patient-physician relationship
- → Your clinical reach between office visits
- → Your capacity to monitor more patients consistently
- → Your team's ability to catch deterioration earlier
- → Your practice's ability to generate RPM reimbursement
- → Additional between-visit clinical capacity without another full-time hire
