RTM for Home Health — Powered by PointClickCare + CCN Health

RTM for Home Health with PointClickCare and Charm Health

Many home health agencies use PointClickCare as their facility EHR while the ordering physician or medical director uses Charm Health for their practice. This dual-EHR reality creates challenges for RTM programs — clinical data lives in two systems that don't natively talk to each other. CCN Health solves this by integrating with both systems simultaneously.

The Dual-EHR Challenge in Home Health

In home health settings, it's common for:

• The facility to use PointClickCare for patient records, charting, and daily care documentation
• The physician to use Charm Health for orders, billing, and clinical decision-making
• RTM data to be needed in both systems for complete clinical documentation

Without an integration bridge, clinical team must manually enter data in both systems, leading to documentation gaps, billing delays, and clinical risk.

How CCN Health Bridges PointClickCare and Charm Health

CCN Health's platform sits between both EHR systems, serving as a central hub for all RTM data:

1. Therapy data flows to CCN Health — Therapeutic outcomes and compliance data are captured by the CCN Health platform
2. PointClickCare receives patient records — Therapy progress, alerts, and care documentation sync to PointClickCare patient charts
3. Charm Health receives clinical summaries — The ordering physician gets RTM reports, clinical observations, and billing-ready documentation in their Charm Health workflow
4. Billing documentation routes correctly — Claims data goes to the billing entity (physician practice via Charm Health) with supporting clinical documentation

Why This Matters for Home Health

Between-Visit Monitoring

Continuous data capture fills the gaps between scheduled home visits with objective vital sign data.

Reduced Hospitalizations

Early alerts enable clinical response before conditions require emergency department visits.

Clinician Efficiency

Automated charting reduces documentation burden, allowing clinicians to focus on direct patient care.

Billing Considerations for Dual-EHR RTM

In dual-EHR environments, billing typically flows through the physician practice (Charm Health):

CPT Code	Reimbursement	Billing Entity	Documentation Source
98975	~$19	Physician (Charm Health)	CCN Health → Charm Health
98976	~$50/mo	Physician (Charm Health)	CCN Health → Charm Health
98977	~$50/mo	Physician (Charm Health)	CCN Health → Charm Health
98980	~$48/mo	Physician (Charm Health)	CCN Health → Charm Health
98981	~$38/mo	Physician (Charm Health)	CCN Health → Charm Health

CCN Health ensures all required documentation is routed to the correct system for compliant billing regardless of which entity submits the claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do both EHR systems get the same RTM data?

Both systems receive RTM data, but the content is tailored to each system's role. PointClickCare gets patient care documentation, while Charm Health receives clinical summaries and billing records.

Who submits the Medicare claims?

Typically the physician practice bills through Charm Health, with CCN Health providing all required documentation. The specific billing arrangement depends on your organization's structure.

Is there extra setup for dual-EHR integration?

CCN Health configures both integrations during the standard implementation period. The dual-EHR setup is part of our standard offering — no additional cost or extended timeline.
