Patients fitted with an implantable medical device (IMD) must typically return to their medical providers for follow-up sessions where the medical provider retrieves data from the patient's IMD for analysis. A remote monitoring device is described to allow patients to complete a follow-up session from the comfort of their own home or from some other remote location. Specifically, a user interface employing various audio signals, light indicators, and tactile features is described to aid patients with hearing and/or visual disabilities during the remote follow-up session. Different light indicator states are used to aid hearing impaired patients. Different audio sound states are used to aid visually impaired patients. Furthermore, tactile features are used to aid hearing and/or visually impaired patients.
