Smart Meter and eClinicalWorks More Than Double RPM Adoption in 2025, Powering a New Era of Connected Care for Patients

TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smart Meter, the leader in Cellular RPM™ and the nation’s most trusted source of patient-generated vital health data, announced exceptional momentum in its integration and partnership with eClinicalWorks, one of the largest AI-powered ambulatory EHR platforms in the country. So far in 2025, the partnership has driven a 107% year-over-year increase in active Smart Meter devices used by eClinicalWorks (eCW) providers — now surpassing 25,000 active devices in the market.

This dramatic growth reflects the partnership’s shared mission: to simplify remote patient monitoring (RPM) for providers and deliver life-changing, real-time insights for the 133 million Americans living with chronic disease.

A Seamless, Scalable, High-Impact RPM Experience

Smart Meter’s Cellular RPM™ solution gives more than 180,000 eClinicalWorks providers the ability to seamlessly enroll patients, capture vitals, and monitor chronic conditions directly within the eClinicalWorks RPM module. The integration delivers secure, reliable, real-time vital sign data into the patient record, including blood pressure, blood glucose, weight, oxygen saturation, and heart rate.

The result is a frictionless, scalable RPM experience that eliminates the Bluetooth® pairing issues and connectivity failures that have historically hindered provider adoption.

eClinicalWorks approached us to help solve the major problems their providers were facing with Bluetooth® RPM devices and hubs,” said Casey Pittock, Chief Executive Officer of Smart Meter. “Our Cellular RPM ecosystem eliminates complexity. Providers get high-quality, patient-friendly devices, secure and reliable data, and a seamless experience inside the EHR they use every day.

Patients Want Easier Ways to Stay Connected — And This Partnership Delivers

Studies show that 71% of people with diabetes believe remote patient monitoring would help them better manage their condition between visits—and 62% would test more often if they knew results were sent automatically to their provider. Cellular-enabled devices remove barriers by requiring no apps, no Wi-Fi, and no technical setup.

The Smart Meter–eClinicalWorks partnership makes that frictionless experience available at scale, helping providers:

  • Improve adherence and patient engagement
  • Deliver more proactive, preventative care
  • Close care gaps between office visits
  • Support better clinical decision-making
  • Drive RPM program reimbursement with reliable data capture

“Our partnership with Smart Meter strengthens the work we are doing to redefine connected care through the AI-powered eClinicalWorks EHR, which is helping practices deliver more proactive, data-driven care to patients wherever they are,” said Girish Navani, Chief Executive Officer and cofounder of eClinicalWorks. “By combining reliable cellular RPM data with the eClinicalWorks AI-powered Rural Health Platform, which includes intelligent workflows across chronic care management, care coordination, and population health, we’re equipping providers with the tools they need to improve outcomes for all practices, reach underserved communities, and accelerate their shift toward value-based care.”

Built for Security, Built for Healthcare

Smart Meter’s ecosystem remains the only fully integrated, cellular-based RPM platform with SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA certifications, supported by a purpose-built Private Data Network created in partnership with AT&T. FDA-cleared devices with multi-carrier sim technology for maximum geographic coverage transmit data exclusively through this secure network, ensuring uncompromising protection of patient information from end to end.

A Partnership Poised for Continued Growth

With adoption surging in 2025 and thousands of new patients activating every month, the Smart Meter–eClinicalWorks partnership is riding a wave of momentum — and the timing could not be better. Beginning January 1, 2026, key updates to RPM reimbursement make remote monitoring even more flexible and financially viable, signaling a major shift toward RPM going mainstream. Under the new 2026 Physician Fee Schedule for Medicare, CMS finalized two pivotal codes: CPT 99445, which reimburses for 2–15 days of physiologic data transmission, and CPT 99470, which covers the first 10 minutes of RPM clinical review and interactive communication.

These additions break down long-standing barriers: no longer must providers wait for 16 days of patient data just to bill, and shorter, more clinically meaningful touchpoints are now billable — whether it’s a post-discharge check-in, a medication titration period, or a brief but vital care-management call.

For eClinicalWorks providers using Smart Meter’s cellular-enabled RPM devices, these CPT changes unlock a broader swath of patient populations, including those with intermittent or transitional needs. The result? More patients qualify. More interactions are reimbursable. And the financial model supports scalable, value-based care at scale.

As RPM becomes more accessible and better aligned with real-world clinical use cases, the Smart Meter–eClinicalWorks integration stands at the forefront of the digital health transformation. Together, both organizations are not just scaling device deployment — they’re helping to make continuous, connected care the new standard.
