Introduction

The digital transformation of healthcare continues to accelerate—bringing with it new opportunities to care for patients with chronic conditions in a more effective and sustainable way. A key milestone in this development is the reimbursement decision by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) for telemonitoring in heart failure. As a provider of telemedicine solutions, we at ACTIMI are ideally positioned to support clinics and cardiologists in implementing this model. At the same time, a look into the future shows: further indications are on the verge of being included in the reimbursement framework. Those who act now will secure a clear strategic advantage.

Overview: G-BA Reimbursement for Telemonitoring in Heart Failure

Background of the Decision

Since January 1, 2022, telemonitoring for patients with symptomatic heart failure (NYHA II–III, LVEF ≤40%) has been officially reimbursable by statutory health insurance. This development is based on the G-BA decision of December 16, 2021, which firmly anchors telemedicine in standard healthcare delivery.

Structural Model: Cooperation Between Physicians and Telemedical Centers

Service delivery follows a cooperative model: treating cardiologists work closely with a certified telemedical center. This enables continuous patient monitoring and timely therapy adjustments based on relevant clinical data.

Summary of Reimbursable Services

  • Data collection using CE-certified medical devices

  • Data evaluation by qualified medical professionals

  • Feedback to the treating physician for therapy adjustment

Strategic Significance for Clinics and Telemedicine Providers Like Us

New Billing Opportunities for Clinics

The G-BA policy opens new financial opportunities for clinics. By partnering with a telemedical center, reimbursable services in digital care can be implemented efficiently.

Our Role as a Technology Partner: Focus on Interoperability and Data Protection

We provide the precise solution that enables clinics, medical care centers, and practices to efficiently and compliantly integrate telemonitoring into their daily routines. Today, our platform is already being successfully used in a wide range of facilities—from large hospital networks to specialized cardiology practices. Our hands-on experience continuously informs the further development of our platform.

As a technology provider, we deliver the foundation: CE-certified, interoperable, and GDPR-compliant platforms that ensure smooth and secure integration into everyday care. Our modular configurations allow us to quickly adapt to individual institutional requirements. Learn more about our solutions for reimbursable remote patient monitoring for chronic heart failure.

Benefits for Physicians and Healthcare Staff

With automated data collection and structured reporting, we significantly reduce the burden on medical personnel—empowering them to focus more on personalized patient care.

Outlook: More Indications Soon to Be Reimbursed

G-BA Is Evaluating Additional RPM Indications

The effectiveness of Remote Patient Monitoring extends well beyond heart failure. The G-BA is currently evaluating several additional indications for inclusion:

  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

  • Diabetes mellitus

  • Hypertension

Healthcare Policy Trend: RPM Will Become Standard

The political direction is clear: digital follow-up care and RPM will become standard components of care. Clinics, practices, and healthcare networks would do well to start building the necessary structures today.

Take Action Now – Secure Future Readiness

Those who invest today are building the foundation for sustainable, digital patient care. As your technology partner, we support you on this path with proven solutions and deep regulatory expertise.
