Problem
Physical therapy patients often struggle with adherence to home exercise programs (HEPs), leading to suboptimal recovery and outcomes. Traditional HEPs lack engagement and personalization, while therapists have limited visibility into patient progress outside of clinic visits. This disconnect hinders effective monitoring and timely adjustments to treatment plans.
Solution
Whel provides a remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) platform that enhances patient engagement and streamlines therapist workflows. The platform combines automated, customizable HEPs with in-app messaging, allowing therapists to remotely monitor patient adherence and progress. By offering dynamic, interactive HEPs and facilitating continuous communication, Whel improves patient outcomes and enables clinics to bill Medicare for RTM services. The system automates RTM to minimize disruption to already busy schedules.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes physical therapists and clinics looking to improve patient outcomes, increase revenue through RTM billing, and streamline their workflow.
