Managing your blood pressure by yourself can be challenging. Most see their doctor only a few times a year, but what happens between those office visits? If you have ever felt anxious about a blood pressure reading, wondered if your medication/dose is effective, or simply want someone to help keep your BP readings in a healthy range, GatewayMD’s remote patient monitoring program was built just for you. The concept is simple, GatewayMD will send you a blood pressure cuff that automatically sends your readings to our clinical staff. You will be assigned to a dedicated care nurse and Nurse Practitioner that will communicate with you throughout the month while tracking your BP readings daily. If your care team notices an elevated reading or a negative trend, they will reach out to you. From there we will give guidance, and even contact your doctor if need be. If you’re like the 116 million Americans that struggle with the management of their blood pressure, let GatewayMD help keep your BP in a healthy range. You shouldn’t have to go through life worrying about what to do next when it comes to managing your BP.
