Mahaska Health is excited to offer an opportunity for eligible Medicare Patients to participate in their Remote Home Monitoring Program. The program is designed to offer the simplest and safest way for patients to manage conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, and diabetes from the comfort of their homes.
The Home Monitoring Program provides patients with easy-to-use monitoring devices that track vital health data like blood pressure, weight, blood glucose, and oxygen saturation. Mahaska Health’s care team monitors these readings and provides personalized support, medication management, and regular check-ins to help patients stay on track with their health goals.
Eligible patients receive a blood pressure monitor, weight scale or glucose meter, depending on condition, which require no set-up. The devices automatically share readings to Mahaska Health care teams. Participants also have access to a nurse navigator to help achieve health goals from home, and personalized support, education, and care plan management.
“Our Remote Home Monitoring Program aims to provide peace of mind by allowing patients and their families to stay connected to their care team 24/7,” shared Eric Miller, DO, Accountable Care Medical Director. “This program helps patients receive timely, personalized care without the need for frequent in-person visits, helping to prevent hospitalizations and ER trips.”
Patients interested in the program are encouraged to speak with their healthcare provider to determine eligibility. Family Medicine care providers at Mahaska Health can be reached at 641.672.3360.
