screenings so clients can hire faster and easier.
NEW
YORK, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrating

health services, reflects on its journey from pioneering mobile
services to a national authority. They emphasize innovation, client
satisfaction, and adaptability, while embracing change and
leveraging technology to streamline processes and meet evolving
client needs.
"From starting with a van
to becoming a national leader in occupational health services,
Mobile Health's 40-year journey epitomizes our unwavering
commitment to excellence, innovation, and client satisfaction. As
we look ahead, we're energized by the opportunities to continue
pushing boundaries and shaping the future of occupational

– Bert Brodsky,
Chairman of the Board and Founder of Mobile Health
Throughout their 40-year history, Mobile Health has served a
diverse range of industries, including home healthcare agencies,
staffing firms, transportation, construction, manufacturing, higher
education, government, energy, and more. The company's commitment
to providing high-quality pre-employment and annual compliance
services tailored to the specific needs of each industry has earned
it a reputation for excellence and reliability.
Mobile Health's Beginnings
Founded in 1984 by
Bert Brodsky, the company's original
vision was to provide occupational health services for home
healthcare agencies through mobile units (vans). By offering
clients and their employees convenient access to pre-employment
testing, it eliminated access as a barrier to hiring. The initial
pre-employment screening services included drug tests, titers,
tuberculosis screenings, and general health screenings. Responding
to market demand, Mobile Health ventured into other industries,
delivering efficiencies so clients could screen faster and hire
sooner.
Growing with Clinics
To see more candidates and employees, and as a natural extension of
its services, Mobile Health established its first clinic location
in the New York City area. Six
more clinic locations throughout New York
City were added over the next few years. Shortly thereafter,
to support their growing client base and geographic need for
employee testing, Mobile Health began partnering with existing
clinics in the tri-state area of New
York, New Jersey, and
Connecticut.
In May 2015, Mobile Health's
clinic expansion began growing beyond the tri-state area,
allowing the company to reach a broader client base and provide its
services to employees across the country. Today, Mobile Health has
over 6,500 clinics, with 77% of people living within 10 miles of a
clinic, and 89% living within 25 miles of one. Giving clients more
access is especially important as the workforce becomes more
location-diverse due to the rise of remote work in the wake of the
COVID-19 pandemic.
Adding On-Site Services
The concept of on-site events was introduced in 2011 when Mobile
Health began sending clinical teams to clients. Their first on-site
event was offering flu vaccines for their New York clients. Next, they did on-site
respirator fit testing for students at an area college. That was
followed with PPD tuberculosis testing, health histories, and
physicals for a community service provider. Today, Mobile Health
can conduct almost any of its services on-site, offering clients
and employees unparalleled convenience and minimal work disruption,
plus instant results for many of the tests and exams.
Revolutionary Technology
Most recently, Mobile Health has set out to solve common pain
points that impact almost everyone navigating pre-employment and
annual compliance screenings: scheduling appointments for
candidates and/or employees, getting results, and managing
documentation in a compliant fashion. In recognition of and
response to these problems, they launched three portals: Patient
Portal, Client Portal, and the Respirator Fit Testing Portal.
- Patient Portal: Saves clients' time by enabling candidates
and/or employees to self-schedule their exams.
- Client Portal: Delivers results to clients in real time. Also
features scheduling and HIPAA-compliant record-keeping.
- Respirator Fit Testing Portal: Simplifies respiratory
compliance with online medical evaluations, results tracking, and
OSHA-compliant document storage.
Looking Back, Looking Forward
Reflecting on the past four decades, the leadership team at Mobile
Health is proudest of what hasn't changed, "Our unwavering
commitment to clinical excellence and client support," says
James Anderson, Chief Growth Officer
of Mobile Health. From humble beginnings with one mobile van to a
fleet of vans, 6 clinics in the New York
City area to 6,500 clinics nationwide, Mobile Health's
journey is a testament to innovation.
Looking ahead, Mobile Health remains focused on embracing
change, adapting to the evolving needs of its clients, and
leveraging technology to streamline and improve the pre-employment
and annual compliance exam process. "Our ultimate goal is to help
our clients screen faster, so they can hire faster,"
said Brodsky. With a keen eye on regulatory changes and
industry trends, the company is poised to continue revolutionizing
occupational health for years to come.
