CCRCs running CCM and RPM Programs

Why Every CCRC Should Launch Its Own CCM & RPM Program in 2026

December 08, 20254 min read

Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) are designed to offer residents stability, security, and high-quality care as they age. But with chronic conditions on the rise and healthcare expectations shifting toward preventive, tech-enabled care, CCRCs now have a major opportunity to elevate resident outcomes while unlocking substantial financial value.

That opportunity lies in Chronic Care Management (CCM) and Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM).

If your CCRC hasn’t implemented these Medicare-reimbursable programs yet, now is the perfect time to start — and CCM RPM Help can ensure you build a successful, compliant, and profitable program from day one

Why CCRCs Need Their Own CCM & RPM Programs

1. Your Residents Are Already an Ideal Population

CCRC residents are often managing multiple chronic conditions — hypertension, diabetes, COPD, heart failure, and others. Under Medicare rules, CCM and RPM are specifically built for this population.

That means:

  • A large portion of your residents already qualify.

  • You don’t need new marketing or external recruitment.

  • Enrollments can scale quickly and predictably.

2. Better Care, Better Outcomes

CCM and RPM programs strengthen resident care through:

  • Proactive monthly care management

  • Early detection of health changes

  • Regular communication with a clinician

  • Improved medication adherence

  • Timely interventions that prevent hospitalization

For older adults, consistency is everything. These programs ensure no resident “falls through the cracks,” and small issues are caught before they escalate.

3. Stronger Relationships Between Residents & Staff

CCRCs thrive on trust and connection. With CCM and RPM:

  • Residents feel supported between visits

  • Nurses gain more insight into each resident’s health

  • Families gain peace of mind knowing their loved one is closely monitored

This level of support becomes a selling point for your community.

4. Significant Financial Benefits for CCRCs

Medicare wants providers to deliver preventive, tech-enabled care — and reimburses accordingly.

CCRCs can generate new revenue streams from:

  • Chronic Care Management (CPT 99490, 99439, 99487, 99489)

  • Remote Patient Monitoring (CPT 99453, 99454, 99457, 99458)

  • Principal Care Management (PCM — for residents with a single high-risk condition)

A typical CCRC can generate:

  • $80–$120 per resident per month on CCM

  • $120–$150 per resident per month on RPM

Multiply that by 100–300 eligible residents, and you're looking at a six- to seven-figure annual revenue opportunity — all while improving care quality.

5. Competitive Advantage in a Crowded Market

Many CCRCs are still offering traditional models of senior care. By adding CCM and RPM:

  • You differentiate your community

  • You show families your commitment to proactive healthcare

  • You modernize your entire clinical approach

This creates a powerful message for marketing and sales teams.

Common Concerns CCRCs Have — and Why They’re Easy to Overcome

“We don’t have time or staff.”

A well-built CCM/RPM program can integrate directly into your current nursing workflows — with minimal disruption.

“We don’t understand the billing rules.”

Medicare provides clear, well-defined guidelines. With the right guidance, compliance is simple and consistent.

“We don’t know what software or devices to use.”

There are proven platforms and devices that make monitoring and care coordination seamless.

“We’re not sure how to get started.”

That’s where CCM RPM Help comes in.
