Why monitor your heart?

Irregular heart rhythms are alarmingly common. In the U.S, an individual's lifetime risk of developing AFib is roughly 1 in 4.1 And yet, many who experience this don't even feel symptoms and aren't aware that they have it.2 Arrhythmias are a leading cause of stroke and increase the risk of other serious outcomes.3,5

 

The good news is that long-term, continuous heart monitoring is helping in the shift to more preventative and proactive treatment and care.2

1/3

Approx 1/3 of all AFib is asymptomatic at time of diagnosis4

5x

The risk of stroke is 5x greater with AFib3

3x

There is a 3x risk of developing heart failure if AF is a comorbidity5

25%

Percent of ischemic strokes caused by AFib in older adults6
Zio monitor

Easy-to-wear cardiac monitoring

Know Your Rhythm is powered by the industry-leading Zio® monitor, a small, discreet, comfortable heart monitor that allows you to continue normal activities including moderate exercise and showering. Zio monitor records every single heartbeat, day and night over a 14-day period, so you and your doctor can get an accurate diagnosis and treat your irregular heart rhythm quickly.

How does it work?

Your members simply enroll online or in-clinic according to age and comorbidity at-risk criteria. A Zio monitor patch is then mailed to their home or applied in-clinic.
They wear the patch for 14 days, and then mail it back to iRhythm using the prepaid shipping box.
Your members' heartbeat data is analyzed to discover their rhythm, so they can get back to what matters most.

The details

Monitoring saves lives and health care dollars.
Fewer ED visits, reduced hospital admissions, and reduced adverse cardiac outcomes (stroke, MI, systemic embolism, and death).7,10
Address member satisfaction, growth, and retention.
4 out of 5 Medicare Advantage survey respondents indicated they would be more satisfied and likely to stay with their current plan if an early AFib detection program were offered to them at no cost.8
Positive financial impact
The Know Your Rhythm program has the potential to deliver $4.73PMPM in cost savings over three years.9*

Proactive monitoring is the future of cardiac care.
Implement a new care pathway for early detection of actionable arrhythmias.
Improve healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and outcomes. 7,10
Improved population health and a positive net financial impact for your capitated lives.
