Advocates, health care providers, and lawmakers gathered today at the New York State Capitol to call for passage of the Primary Care Investment Act (S1634/A1915A). The legislation would require health plans to dedicate at least 12.5% of total spending to primary care, helping strengthen the state’s health care system and expand access to preventive and community-based services. A powerful “Empty White Coat” display highlighted the shortage of primary care providers across New York and the urgent need for action. With more than 4.8 million New Yorkers living in primary care shortage areas, investing in primary care is critical to improving health outcomes, reducing costs, and strengthening communities.

Along with proper diet, medication, and exercise, regularly monitoring your blood pressure and glucose levels is essential for managing chronic hypertension and diabetes. Our Remote Patient Monitoring Service helps patients who could benefit from ongoing monitoring achieve their health goals and stay connected to their care team. Program participants are given a monitoring device that they can use at home. This home device directly connects to their health file on our systems so that our medical providers can have a continuous record of readings and attend to patients’ needs in real-time. For More Information and to Sign-Up: Our Remote Patient Monitoring Service is covered by most insurance including Medicare and Medicaid. To sign up or to get more information, please speak to your Provider or contact Natalie DeRizzio at (914) 699-7200, ext. 1553, or email her at rpm@wchchealth.org. #remotepatientmonitoring #bloodpressure #diabetes
