Telehealth and remote patient monitoring platforms.

Virtual visits booked from the practice schedule, consent collected before the call, and out-of-range device readings routed to a care-team queue at thresholds your clinicians set. Video runs through a specialist provider, and visit notes reach the EHR.

Illustration of a telehealth platform built by Baybloom: a virtual visit scheduled from the practice system with consent collected first, video through a healthcare-grade provider, and readings in a review queue.

Who this is for

Care groups, health-technology companies, and specialist practices adding virtual visits or monitoring to their care model, whose off-the-shelf telehealth tool does not fit the workflow, the EHR, or the devices. Video and device connectivity come from specialist providers; the platform we build is the workflow, the queue, and the integration.

What makes it urgent

  • The telehealth tool the practice bought does not connect to scheduling or the EHR.
  • Device readings arrive in a portal nobody watches.
  • Patients message through three channels and none reach the record.

What usually breaks

  • Visits are scheduled in one system and held in another.
  • Readings above threshold are noticed at the next appointment.
  • Consent and intake for virtual visits are handled by email.

The workflow

Before and after the first release.

The steps we see most often in this kind of operation.

Today
  1. ScheduleIn the practice system
  2. VisitA link sent by email; notes typed later
  3. ReadingsA device portal checked weekly
  4. MessageEmail, text, and a patient portal that does not connect
With the first release
  1. ScheduleVirtual visits from the same schedule; links generated
  2. VisitVideo through a healthcare-grade provider; notes to the record
  3. ReadingsDevice data with thresholds; alerts to a review queue
  4. MessageOne patient channel, recorded, with permissions

Features

What the system can include.

Virtual waiting room

Patients check in before the visit, complete forms, and test their camera, while staff see who is ready and admit them when the clinician is available.

Program enrollment management

Patients enrolled in monitoring programs with consent, device assignment, and thresholds recorded, and their participation tracked across the program.

Care-team task assignment

Alerts and messages assigned to nurses or coordinators by rule, with escalation paths the clinicians define when an item is left unaddressed.

Patient reminders and nudges

Reminders for visits, readings, and forms by text, email, or app notification, with preferences and opt-outs respected for each patient.

Time and activity logging

Staff time and interactions recorded per patient, giving billing and coding teams the documentation their program rules call for.

Interpreter and caregiver access

Visits that include an interpreter or family caregiver, with invitations, permissions, and consent handled inside the workflow rather than by email.

Your first release

What the first release could include.

In the first release

  • Virtual visits scheduled from the practice system, with consent and intake collected before the visit
  • Video through a healthcare-grade provider, integrated into the workflow
  • A care-team queue for messages and, where in scope, device readings above threshold
  • Integration with the EHR for the fields the workflow needs
  • A business associate agreement, data handling to HIPAA requirements, and audit logging

Usually later

  • Device integrations and monitoring programs
  • Patient app with reminders and readings
  • Reporting on visits, readings, and outcomes for the program

Systems it may connect

  • Healthcare-grade video providers
  • Device and monitoring data platforms
  • EHRs and practice management systems through FHIR and HL7
  • Scheduling and reminder tools
  • Patient identity and consent services
  • Billing and coding systems

How the work runs

Scoped in writing, built in releases, handed over to your team.

Scope

We start with the people doing the work and the systems around it, then write down the first release: what it includes, what it leaves for later, the integration decisions, and the acceptance criteria. Nothing is built until that scope is agreed.

Build and test

We build in releases you can review as the work takes shape, using realistic data. Every release carries tests, a security review, and documentation. Integrations are tested against real records, with exceptions visible.

Handover

Your team receives the documentation, the runbooks, and the training to run the system, and we stay on for continued engineering when you want it.

Scope and price

What shapes the scope and price.

Every project is priced from a written scope. These are the factors that move it most.

Devices and data platforms

Each device type or monitoring platform adds integration, data normalization, and threshold handling, and some expose far more detail than others.

EHR and scheduling integration

Connecting to the practice schedule and writing visit notes back to the EHR depends on the interfaces the vendor and the organization permit.

Patient-facing channels

A web visit link is narrower than a patient app, text messaging, and caregiver access, each adding design, testing, and support considerations.

Program rules and documentation

Monitoring programs with detailed thresholds, escalation paths, and time tracking for billing need more rules and reporting than virtual visits alone.

Cardiology group

Nurses review out-of-range device readings in a queue, against thresholds clinicians set.

In many cardiology practices, device readings go to a vendor portal that nurses check when they can, and virtual follow-ups are arranged by hand. A monitoring platform brings readings into a care-team queue and flags those outside the thresholds clinicians set. Follow-up visits are booked from the practice schedule with consent collected first, video runs through a healthcare-grade provider, and the visit note reaches the EHR. Data handling is designed to support HIPAA requirements. A patient app with reminders and readings is a natural later phase.

Questions

Questions about telehealth and remote patient monitoring platforms.

What buyers ask before a project like this starts.

Do you provide the video?

No. Video comes from a healthcare-grade provider under its own agreements. We build the workflow around it: scheduling, consent, intake, the visit record, and the queue.

How is patient data protected?

The first release includes a business associate agreement, hosting and databases that support HIPAA requirements, permissions aligned to care roles, encryption, and audit logging.

Can it connect to our devices?

Yes, through the device platform’s interfaces, with thresholds the clinicians set and alerts into a review queue. This usually comes in a second release once visits are live.

Is this a medical device?

The platform coordinates care and presents data; it does not make clinical decisions. Where a feature would, its regulatory obligations are scoped separately with your advisers.

What if patients struggle with technology?

The patient journey is designed for people who rarely use apps: a link by text, large clear steps, and a camera and sound check before the visit. Staff can see who is having trouble and switch to a phone call, and caregivers can be invited to help patients join and follow along.

Can we run several monitoring programs on one platform?

Yes. Each program has its own enrollment rules, devices, thresholds, and care team, while patients, the queue, and reporting are shared. Adding a program is mostly configuration, plus integration work for any new device, rather than a new platform or a separate set of tools for staff.

How do we measure whether the program is working?

Reports show enrollment, reading adherence, alerts raised and resolved, visit volume, and follow-up completion, built from the platform’s own records and EHR data where permitted. Clinical and operational leaders decide which measures matter, and those definitions are agreed before the reports are built.
