    Hello,

    How often are you seeing patients in person for MICRA VR and SICD? We see them once per year. 

    Thank You,

    HI Stacie,

     

    We have had trouble with our MICRA VR patients not being able to use the manual carelink, so we schedule them for every 6 months after the first 2 visits at 3 months.

    We have had better success with our SICD patients.  For those that are compliant with the weekly checks and the 91 day summaries: we see annually.  IF they cannot use the remotes we see them every 6 months.

    I am very interested to see if others have the same obstacles.
