More pulmonary care between visits. Rehabilitation within reach.

Expand access. Support completion. Keep your practice connected.

Covalent Care helps pulmonology practices support patients between appointments—without asking your existing team to run another program.

Programs

Prescribing rehabilitation is only the beginning.

Pulmonary rehabilitation is an important part of respiratory care. But a referral does not always become a completed program.

Getting there can be the hardest part

For patients managing breathlessness, fatigue, oxygen needs, or limited mobility, repeated travel can make participation difficult.

Patients can drop out at every stage

In a prospective study of 391 people with COPD receiving tertiary care, 123 were referred to rehabilitation, 63 started, and just 35 completed the program.

An external referral can separate rehabilitation from your practice

When another organization delivers rehabilitation, your practice does not furnish that service line. Keeping care connected requires a feasible alternative—not simply another referral destination.

Make rehabilitation part of your care model—not just your referral list.

Help more patients access rehabilitation

Covalent’s virtual pulmonary rehabilitation model allows appropriate patients to participate from home, reducing repeated travel and transportation demands. It gives your practice another option for patients who may struggle to attend a center-based program.

Support patients through completion

Access is only the first step. Covalent combines rehabilitation with patient engagement, coaching, and follow-through to help patients stay involved. Our goal is not simply to enroll more patients. It is to help them participate consistently and complete an appropriate course of care.

Keep your practice clinically connected

Agree on the patient pathway, clinical communication, reporting, and escalation processes before launch. Rehabilitation can sit alongside your ongoing pulmonary care rather than operating as a disconnected service.

Evaluate keeping the service—and its revenue—within your practice

Covalent helps you assess bringing rehabilitation into your practice’s delivery model rather than referring every patient externally. Where clinical, payer, staffing, supervision, and location requirements permit, your practice may be able to furnish and bill eligible services, supported by Covalent’s team and operations.

We review the delivery model and economics before making projections. Home-based delivery and virtual supervision have distinct coverage requirements; one does not automatically establish the other.

Add the capability without building the entire operation

Covalent supports the agreed care-team services, patient engagement, documentation, coding, claim submission, and revenue-cycle management. You choose what stays in-house. We help manage the rest.

One partner. A broader range of between-visit services.
