Optimize Health is a capable RPM-first platform with an optional staffed monitoring tier, but it centers on remote monitoring. HealthArc gives you the full care-management stack — nine reimbursable programs on one login — plus device freedom and a provider-owned option built for the proposed CMS 2027 rule.
If you’re looking to consolidate more than RPM onto one platform, or want to run monitoring with your own staff, HealthArc is the broader, more future-proof fit.
Optimize Health is a remote patient monitoring platform serving mid-market provider organizations, with streamlined RPM workflows, patient engagement tooling, and an optional staffed monitoring / clinical-services tier for teams that want help running the program.
Its strength is a focused, well-executed RPM experience: for organizations whose priority is remote monitoring and who may want a managed tier to lean on, it’s a clean, purpose-built option.
Mid-market practices focused primarily on remote patient monitoring who may want an optional staffed monitoring tier.
Optimize Health is RPM-first. HealthArc runs RPM, RTM, CCM, TCM, PCM, BHI, APCM, MTM, PIN on one login, so you capture more reimbursable care from the same patient panel.
If you use a staffed monitoring tier, the proposed CY2027 rule puts that at risk. HealthArc’s provider-owned model keeps monitoring — and reimbursement — with your own team.
Keep compatible hardware you already deployed. HealthArc supports 40+ connected devices with no lock-in.
Automatic CPT time-tracking and audit-ready records across all nine programs — not just RPM.
Optimize Health’s exposure to the proposed CY2027 rule depends on how you use it. If you rely on its staffed monitoring tier, the proposal’s restriction — counting only RPM/RTM time from staff employed by the billing practice — puts that arrangement at risk, like any managed model. This is a proposal with an open comment period, not final policy. HealthArc supports a provider-owned, own-staff model so your program doesn’t depend on third-party monitoring.
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.
Yes — especially if you want more than RPM. HealthArc runs nine CMS-reimbursable programs on one login, is device-agnostic, automates CPT billing across all of them, and offers a provider-owned monitoring model built for the proposed CMS 2027 rule.
Yes. We run a zero-gap cutover: patients keep transmitting while we migrate your roster, historical readings, consents, care plans and billing history via a structured HL7 FHIR import.
If you rely on a staffed monitoring tier, the proposed rule’s restriction on non-employed clinical staff time puts that reimbursement at risk. It’s a proposal with an open comment period, not final. HealthArc’s provider-owned model keeps monitoring with your own staff.
Usually not. HealthArc is device-agnostic across 40+ devices, so compatible hardware typically carries over. We confirm device compatibility during your free migration assessment.
Most practices go live within about 30 days with no IT team required, planned around your existing renewal date.
