Health Aff (Millwood). 2024 May;43(5):701-706. doi: 10.1377/hlthaff.2023.00756.

Abstract

Remote physiologic monitoring use increased more than 1,300 percent from 2019 to 2021, and use varied by state. This increase was driven by a small number of (predominantly internal medicine) providers. Female beneficiaries, residents of metropolitan areas, and people diagnosed with diabetes or hypertension had the highest rates of use.
