# Willow Harbor Health

> Willow Harbor Health runs Willow Harbor at Home, a Medicare-covered remote patient monitoring program. People with high blood pressure and other long-term conditions get a cellular health monitor that sends readings automatically, plus a nurse practitioner–led care team that reviews them and calls every month. We serve patients in Virginia, starting in Northern Virginia. No Wi-Fi, smartphone or computer is needed.

## Program basics

- Program name: Willow Harbor at Home (remote patient monitoring). Sister service: Willow Harbor Telehealth (video visits).
- Who it helps: adults on Medicare with a long-term condition such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart failure or COPD. Family members can help a parent or spouse sign up, with that person's agreement.
- Where: Virginia. We start in Northern Virginia: Fairfax, Arlington, Loudoun and Prince William counties and the City of Alexandria, including Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Falls Church, McLean, Vienna, Reston, Herndon, Sterling, Ashburn, Leesburg, Manassas and Woodbridge. More states are planned.
- Languages: the website is in English and Spanish, and Willow answers in either.
- Devices: a blood pressure monitor for most people. Depending on the condition, it can also be a glucose meter, a scale or a pulse oximeter. Devices have a built-in cellular connection, so readings send by themselves. No Wi-Fi, smartphone, app or computer is needed.
- The device is part of the program and is billed to Medicare as part of the service. It is not a gift and it is not sold separately.
- Daily routine: most people take one reading a day. It takes about a minute.
- Care team: a nurse practitioner, supervised by a physician, plus care staff employed by the practice. They review readings, call each month to check in, and follow up when a reading is out of range.
- High readings: the care team is alerted and follows up during business hours. This is not an emergency service. In an emergency, call 911.
- Your own doctor: you keep your own doctor. With your permission, we send them updates.

## How to start

1. Quick check: answer four questions on willowharborhealth.com to see if the program fits. Nothing typed in the quick check is saved or sent.
2. Short visit: meet our nurse practitioner by video from home, or in person when we are on site at your building. This visit confirms the program is right for you and records your consent.
3. Monitor arrives: it comes ready to use, already connected.
4. Daily readings: take a reading each day. Your care team watches the numbers and calls each month.

## Cost

- Original Medicare Part B covers remote patient monitoring when a clinician orders it for a medical condition.
- Like most Part B services, you pay 20% coinsurance after the yearly Part B deductible.
- Many supplemental (Medigap) plans pay that 20%. Medicaid may pay it for people with both Medicare and Medicaid.
- Many Medicare Advantage plans cover remote monitoring. We check your plan.
- Typical cost with Original Medicare only: about $21 a month. Medicare pays 80% of about $104 a month (2026 national rates for the device service and 20 minutes of care-team time); the 20% share is about $21. Until the yearly Part B deductible ($283 in 2026) is met, the patient pays the Medicare rate toward it. The first month adds about $4 for setup. Virginia rates differ slightly.
- With most Medigap plans: $0 for most people (plans K and L pay part). With Medicare and Medicaid: often $0. Medicare Advantage: depends on the plan.
- We check your coverage and tell you your exact cost before you start.

## Promises

- You'll know your cost before anything starts.
- We never cold call. We only call people who asked us to, or who are already in the program.
- A real person from the care team calls every month.
- Stop any time with one call. No contracts.
- Your own doctor stays your doctor.

## Privacy

- We follow HIPAA, the federal health privacy law.
- Our public website has no advertising trackers or tracking pixels.
- Health information is only collected inside our secure enrollment and patient systems, never on the public website.

## For professionals

- Physicians and practices: we monitor patients between visits and send summaries to the patient's own doctor, with the patient's permission.
- Senior building managers and resident service coordinators: we offer a free 30-minute educational talk for residents on checking blood pressure at home. Residents decide for themselves whether to join. We never pay for referrals.
