I know I promised an article that discussed the Biotronik studies. However, I just came across a brief article that I wanted to share. It's a brief description of an article that shows the introduction of remote monitoring can substantially reduce hospital admissions. Here's the link: http://articles.icmcc.org/2009/11/20/remote-monitoring-yields-healthier-patients/.
This is the kind of article that provides additional, supporting evidence that demonstrates the benefits of remote monitoring: to patients and to the bottom-line of health care. Furthermore, as I remarked in http://medicalremoteprogramming.blogspot.com/2009/11/virtual-doctor-visit-washington-post.html, the people I've known have wanted to stay out of hospitals. So this should be considered a win all way around.
