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.
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.
