Mobile Healthcare Model Expands Access and Services for Patients with Adam David Doctors House Calls

Adam David, CEO of Doctors House Calls, has identified a gap in healthcare for homebound, high-acuity patients who lack a primary care physician, which often leads to frequent hospital admissions. This service operates primarily for Medicare patients by deploying physicians, PAs, and nurse practitioners to provide comprehensive care in patients' homes. Technology, such as connected devices, AI, and portable diagnostic equipment, enables efficient and effective visits to provide proactive care, extending the range of services available to this population.  Adam explains, "I put together Doctors House Calls, not to compete in the business of treating patients in assisted living facilities, which seems to be very popular among independent physicians looking to be more mobile and not wanting to work within four walls." "And so they see facility-based type of care as a way to sort of get out and be mobile and have flexibility, but they're only servicing patients that are in facilities. I would say there are probably more patients who need this type of help who are still living in independent homes than who are actually in facilities. A lot of it's due to their socioeconomic needs. They just don't have the support around them to help guide them. They don't have social services that are in place to tell them what their options are. And so they're sort of just left at home by themselves." "What I've done is over the course of about eight years, I've been working on building a group of nurse practitioners, physician associates, and physicians who are really willing to drive way out of their way at times and drive many miles just to see one patient to make sure that they're receiving the care they need."  #DoctorsHouseCalls #HomeHealthcare #MobileMedicine #AccessibleCare #CareContinuity doctorshousecalls.com Download the transcript here
