Accuhealth — now merged into TelliHealth — is known for a full-service, “we monitor for you” model (a 24/7 nurse center with its Evelyn AI), now paired with TelliHealth’s proprietary cellular devices. That combination means both outsourced monitoring and device lock-in, and the outsourced piece is exactly what the proposed CMS 2027 rule targets most directly. HealthArc lets you bring monitoring in-house on a provider-owned model, keep your device freedom, and add eight more reimbursable programs.
If you want to protect RPM reimbursement under the proposed rule, avoid proprietary-device lock-in, and control the program yourself, moving to a provider-owned platform is the safer long-term play.
Accuhealth built its name on a turnkey, fully managed RPM model: a 24/7 clinical monitoring center (paired with its Evelyn AI) handles day-to-day monitoring so a practice can offer RPM without staffing it internally. Following its merger with TelliHealth — a company known for FDA-cleared cellular connected devices — the combined business now offers both the monitoring service and the hardware.
That combined device-plus-monitoring model is the appeal: for a practice that wants RPM revenue with minimal internal clinical lift and devices supplied, outsourcing to TelliHealth/Accuhealth removes much of the operational burden of running the program.
Practices that want remote monitoring fully outsourced to a third-party clinical center, with devices supplied, and minimal internal staffing.
The proposed CY2027 rule targets outsourced monitoring most directly. HealthArc’s provider-owned, own-staff model keeps RPM/RTM time — and its reimbursement — inside your practice, not with a third-party center.
The TelliHealth/Accuhealth model ties you to its supplied cellular devices. HealthArc is device-agnostic across 40+ devices — keep hardware you already own or choose the best fit.
Bringing monitoring in-house on HealthArc means the margin stays with you instead of an outsourced service — with the tooling to run it efficiently.
Add RTM, CCM, TCM, PCM, BHI, APCM, MTM and PIN — RPM, RTM, CCM, TCM, PCM, BHI, APCM, MTM, PIN on one login — instead of a single outsourced service line.
Switching from TelliHealth (Accuhealth) also changes how notes get written. HealthArc’s care pathways queue the next clinical task from each patient’s readings and billing calendar, and the medical scribe drafts the RPM, CCM, APCM or TCM note with suggested CPT codes for clinician sign-off.
The outsourced monitoring at the core of the TelliHealth/Accuhealth model is the arrangement most directly in the path of the proposed CY2027 rule, which would only count RPM/RTM clinical-staff time performed by staff employed by the billing practice. If finalized as written, time delivered by a third-party monitoring center could stop counting toward reimbursement — and the proposal’s device-supply payment cuts add pressure on the device side too. It is a proposal with an open comment period, not final policy — but it’s exactly why practices on an outsourced, device-tied model are evaluating a provider-owned alternative now.
These are proposals in the CY2027 Physician Fee Schedule, not final policy — the public comment period is open and the final rule is expected later in 2026. Read our full CMS 2027 breakdown →

We review your current vendor, contract timing, device inventory and patient panel, then map a switch plan and revenue projection — no cost, no commitment.
We export and map your patient roster, historical readings, consents and billing history, and confirm which of your existing devices carry over.
Patients keep transmitting throughout the transition. Batch re-consent and EHR (HL7 FHIR) integration are handled in parallel — no monitoring gap.
Your team trains in a few hours, enrollment moves over, and CMS-aligned billing documentation continues without interrupting cash flow.
Accuhealth has merged into TelliHealth, so the two brands are now part of the same company — combining TelliHealth’s cellular RPM devices with Accuhealth’s 24/7 monitoring service. If you were an Accuhealth customer, you’re effectively evaluating TelliHealth going forward.
Yes — especially if you want to own your monitoring rather than outsource it, and avoid proprietary-device lock-in. HealthArc provides a provider-owned model built for the proposed CMS 2027 rule, runs nine CMS programs on one login, is device-agnostic, and automates CPT billing.
Yes. We run a zero-gap cutover and help you stand up your own monitoring workflow in parallel, migrating your roster, historical readings, consents and billing via a structured HL7 FHIR import so patients keep being monitored throughout.
The outsourced monitoring is the model most directly affected: the proposal would only count RPM/RTM staff time from staff employed by the billing practice, so third-party monitoring time could stop counting, and device-supply payment cuts pressure the device side. It’s a proposal with an open comment period, not final. A provider-owned model like HealthArc’s is designed to protect that reimbursement.
Most practices are live within about 30 days with no IT team required, planned around your existing TelliHealth/Accuhealth contract so there’s no overlap.
