As many as 70% of U.S. patients fail to adhere to “paper homework,” leading to poor outcomes and higher costs VIVO’s real-time AI feedback replaces patient “anxiety” with “confidence,” boosting motivation and adherence
South Korea, 20th Nov 2025 – Alyce Health, an AI digital health company, announced its Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) solution, ‘VIVO’, is poised to solve the U.S. physical therapy market’s most significant challenge: patient non-adherence.
The “Achilles’ heel” of U.S. outpatient rehabilitation lies outside the clinic. Industry data suggests that patient adherence to prescribed Home Exercise Programs (HEPs)—often called “paper homework”—is as low as 30-35%. This widespread non-compliance is a primary driver of treatment failure, prolonged recovery times, and billions in avoidable healthcare costs.
The root cause of non-adherence is often psychological: patients feel isolated and are plagued by anxiety, “Am I even doing this right?”
Alyce Health’s VIVO RTM solution directly confronts this problem with its AI Coach. The platform provides real-time, corrective, and encouraging feedback—such as “Great form” or “Straighten your knee a bit more”—for every repetition. This immediate interaction turns patient anxiety into confidence, and the isolation of home rehab into an engaging, “supported” experience.
This AI-driven boost in patient engagement and adherence is the core engine of VIVO’s value, creating a critical win-win-win scenario:
For Patients: Consistent, correct exercise lays the foundation for better clinical outcomes and a faster path to recovery.
For Providers: It provides the high-quality, longitudinal data needed to make informed clinical decisions.
For Clinics: It naturally fulfills the 16+ days of monitoring data required for successful RTM billing (CPT 98980/98981)
By solving the human problem of motivation, VIVO creates a virtuous cycle that enables both clinical and financial success.
“The success of physical therapy is often decided in the patient’s home, but ‘paper homework’ fails to address the crisis of confidence and motivation,” said Dakyum Kang, CEO of Alyce Health. “VIVO’s AI Coach is a digital partner designed to empower patients and help them complete their journey.”
Kang added, “Driving high patient adherence is the single most important value VIVO delivers. It is the key that unlocks both superior patient outcomes and the full financial potential of RTM for providers.”
