Objective To evaluate early lessons from a remote patient monitoring engagement and education technology solution for patients with COVID-19 symptoms. Materials and Methods A COVID-19-specific remote patient monitoring solution (GetWell Loop) was offered to patients with COVID-19 symptoms. The program engaged patients and provided educational materials and the opportunity to share concerns. Alerts were resolved through a virtual care workforce of providers and medical students. Results Between March 18 and April 20, 2020, 2,255 of 3,701 (60.93%) patients with COVID-19 symptoms enrolled resulting in over 2,303 alerts, 4,613 messages, 13 hospital admissions, and 91 emergency room visits. A satisfaction survey was given to 300 patient respondents, 74% of whom would be extremely likely to recommend their doctor. Discussion This program provided a safe and satisfying experience for patients while minimizing COVID-19 exposure and in-person healthcare utilization. Conclusion Remote patient monitoring appears to be an effective approach for managing COVID-19 symptoms at home.
