Sensorless Monitoring for CCRC RTM — PointClickCare + CCN Health

Sensorless Monitoring for CCRC RTM with PointClickCare and Ethizo

CCRC campuses using PointClickCare as their facility EHR often work with physicians who use Ethizo for their practice management. When implementing RTM with sensorless monitoring, this dual-EHR reality creates data flow challenges that CCN Health solves through bi-directional integration with both systems.

The Dual-EHR Challenge in CCRC

In ccrc settings with sensorless monitoring, it's common for:

• The facility to use PointClickCare for resident records, charting, and daily care documentation
• The physician to use Ethizo for orders, billing, and clinical decision-making
• Sensorless Monitoring data to be needed in both systems for complete clinical documentation and billing

Without an integration bridge, sensorless monitoring readings exist in isolation — staff must manually transcribe data between systems, leading to documentation gaps and billing delays.

How Sensorless Monitoring Works

Xandar Kardian XK300 uses 60GHz radar waves to detect micro-movements of the chest wall from breathing and heartbeat, capturing vital signs without any physical contact.

Data Captured

• Heart rate
• Respiratory rate
• Presence/absence detection
• Sleep patterns
• Movement activity

How CCN Health Bridges PointClickCare and Ethizo

CCN Health's platform serves as the central hub for all sensorless monitoring data in dual-EHR environments:

1. Sensorless Monitoring data flows to CCN Health — Heart rate and other metrics are captured continuously by the Xandar Kardian sensor
2. PointClickCare receives resident records — Vital signs, alerts, and care documentation sync to PointClickCare resident charts automatically
3. Ethizo receives clinical summaries — The ordering physician gets RTM reports with sensorless monitoring data in their Ethizo workflow
4. Billing documentation routes correctly — Claims data with sensorless monitoring support goes to the billing entity via Ethizo

Benefits for CCRC Campuses

Combining sensorless monitoring with dual-EHR integration provides unique advantages for ccrc campuses:

Continuum Coverage

One monitoring platform covers every care level — data follows the resident as acuity changes.

Transition Support

Continuous monitoring data informs care level transitions with objective health metrics.

Sensorless Monitoring Advantages

• No wearable devices required — zero resident compliance needed
• Continuous 24/7 monitoring without battery charging or maintenance

Billing Considerations for Dual-EHR Sensorless Monitoring RTM

In dual-EHR environments with sensorless monitoring, billing typically flows through the physician practice (Ethizo):

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

Sensorless Monitoring data provides the clinical documentation needed to support RTM billing with objective, time-stamped readings that demonstrate monitoring compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does sensorless monitoring data reach both EHR systems?

Data flows from the Xandar Kardian sensor to CCN Health's platform, then syncs bi-directionally with both PointClickCare (for resident care documentation) and Ethizo (for physician clinical records and billing).

Do both systems get the same sensorless monitoring data?

Both systems receive sensorless monitoring data, but formatted for each system's role. PointClickCare gets detailed resident charting, while Ethizo receives clinical summaries optimized for physician workflows and billing.

What is the implementation timeline for sensorless monitoring with dual-EHR?

Most ccrc campuses are fully operational within 4-6 weeks, including sensor installation, dual-EHR integration setup, and care staff training. Both EHR connections are configured simultaneously.
