Problem

Currently, RxPack's are not able to provide Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) services that are reimbursable by Medicare. This is because the boxes that pharmacies use to deliver the packs do not have the technology to gather adherence data.

Solution

EllieBox uses sensors to collect adherence data. This enables pharmacies to provide RTM services and create a new recurring revenue stream. Ellie also provides customers with a high-end reusable box that they will appreciate more than a cardboard box.

Monthly Recurring
Revenue

Medicare will reimburse ~$143/month/patient for medication adherence monitoring done by providers & NPPs. You can now benefit from this new rule by using EllieBox.

How It Works

  1. In just 5 seconds, customers can insert packs into the EllieBox and start pulling them out
  2. EllieBox uses sensors to measure how many packs have been pulled out
  3. Healthcare providers use our API to collect reimbursable adherence data
  4. Healthcare providers can reach out to patients and also be reimbursed for the outreach

I Forgot If I
Took My Pills...

Thanks to sensors in the pill box, Ellie can build reports so that you can check to see if you took your pills (included in EllieGrid Plus).

Caregivers Stay Informed

If you miss your pills, Ellie can send a family member a text/email so they can help you stay on track (included in EllieGrid Premium).

Our Story

In 2019, I suffered a brain bleed that resulted in me losing movement on the right side of my body and my ability to speak. I had to undergo multiple brain surgeries, rehab, and start taking various medications. I tried using traditional pill boxes, but I hated that they were not very helpful, took forever to organize, and looked like ugly medical devices. Luckily, my friends (Abe Matamoros and Hieu Nguyen) and I designed Ellie! I am doing much better now and hope that Ellie can help you as much as she helps me!

What is RTM?
(Remote Therapeutic Monitoring )

Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) is designed to help healthcare providers manage patients by using medical devices that collect non-physiological data. By adding new RTM codes and guidance, payers (including Medicare) have opened up new ways to care for your patients and generate recurring revenue streams.

EllieGrid is a smart pill organizer that not only helps increase medication adherence, but also allows doctors and non-physician practitioners to provide effective RTM services.

Setup and patient education on use of equipment (~$19)

CPT# 98976 (Respiratory), # 98977 (Musculoskeletal), or #989X6 (Cognitive Behavioral)
