This extended monitoring helps healthcare providers detect irregular heart rhythms that shorter monitoring might miss, making it especially useful for patients at risk. The company generates revenue by selling the Zio Patch and offering data analysis services to healthcare providers, who can then use this information to improve patient care. iRhythm differentiates itself by emphasizing telehealth capabilities and streamlining healthcare workflows.
