DocGo Inc. (Nasdaq: DCGO) (“DocGo” or the “Company”), a leading
provider of technology-enabled mobile health services, today
announced the expansion of a program to enhance healthcare access
for California Medi-Cal enrollees/patients/members. The program
aims to re-engage patients with the healthcare system, delivering
essential care to underserved communities in Sacramento, San Diego,
Riverside, Los Angeles, San Bernadino, and Orange County through a
partnership with a top 10 national insurance provider.
“This expansion reinforces DocGo’s leadership in facilitating
the delivery of high-quality, highly-accessible healthcare,” said
Lee Bienstock, CEO of DocGo. “By leveraging technology and mobile
clinicians to broaden services in California, we’re removing
barriers to care and helping drive the transition to a value-based
care system. This program is part of a larger movement toward
proactive, preventative care—helping individuals stay healthy,
reduce unnecessary hospitalizations, and improve health outcomes
across the board.”
A partnership with a leading national insurance plan provides
the Company with lists of disengaged patients who require treatment
to close care gaps and face challenges accessing the healthcare
system. The expansion allows patients to receive care at home or in
mobile health centers, helping to eliminate many of the traditional
obstacles that have historically discouraged people from engaging
with their healthcare providers. In addition to facilitating
in-home care gap closures such as well child visits, topical
fluoride administration, vaccinations, and hypertension &
diabetic control assessments, the Company has plans to facilitate
PCP services for patients in the California market to help keep
them engaged with their care and remain healthier over time.
“Our services are uniquely positioned to address existing
healthcare gaps in California,” said Dr. James Powell, MD, DocGo’s
Senior Medical Director. “By leveraging our technology and mobile
health centers, we can close over 30 different care gaps and
provide tailored, patient-centric care that meets individuals where
they are—both geographically and in their healthcare journey. This
expansion will have a meaningful impact on improving health
outcomes, particularly for underserved populations who often face
the greatest barriers to care.”
