Effect of Home Monitoring Patients with CHF
The study was based on Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) patients that were cared for by a group of 31 community physicians with a multidisciplinary medical group.
It costs 48% less to care for a patient using home monitoring.
$18,800 - $9,800 = $9000 Less per patient every year.
This data is based on the study: “Effect of a home monitoring system on hospitalization and resource use for patients with heart failure.” published in the American Heart
Journal, 1999.
