Readmissions are a major source of burden to patients, hospitals, and third-party payers. Remote patient monitoring (RPM) was initially implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic but was later expanded to other high-risk patients upon discharge from the hospital. The authors used a retrospective data of convenience sample of adult patients enrolled in their RPM program from March 2024 to May 2025. Inclusion criteria included adult patients > 21 years of age, members of Geisinger Health Plan or Keystone Accountable Care Organization, high-priority diagnosis-related groups with elevated Epic readmission risk score, home internet availability, and discharge disposition to home. Exclusion criteria included patients’ age
