Successful use of RPM depends on (1) the enrollment of the patient into an RPM system and (2) subsequent activation of RPM by the enrolled patient. We examined RPM enrollment and activation rates and the patient, physician, and institutional determinants of RPM use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and Results\u2014<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Information about the use of RPM-capable devices was obtained from the Boston Scientific Corporation ALTITUDE program and linked to the National Cardiovascular Data Registry ICD Registry. Patients were first categorized as RPM-enrolled and RPM-not enrolled, and the RPM-enrolled patients were further categorized into RPM-active and RPM-inactive groups based on whether they transmitted RPM data. Variables associated with RPM enrollment and activation were identified with the use of multivariable logistic regression. Among 39 158 patients with newly implanted RPM-capable devices, 62% (n=24 113) were RPM-enrolled. Of those enrolled, 76% (n=18 289, or 47% of the entire cohort) activated their device. RPM enrollment was highly variable among institutions. The hospital-specific median odds ratio for RPM enrollment was 3.43, signifying that physician or institutional factors are associated with RPM enrollment. In contrast, the hospital-specific median odds ratio for RPM activation was 1.69. Age, race, health insurance, geographic location, and health-related factors were similarly associated with both RPM enrollment and activation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>RPM technology is used in less than half of eligible patients.
