Since
1999, Physicians' House Calls has demonstrated an ability to reduce
emergency room transport and hospital admission rates by providing physicians
to deliver high quality comprehensive, at home medical services. We
have gathered data (cost study) which
indicates that 27% to 33% of our visits are in place of either emergency
visits or hospital stays. Our program is unique in it's exclusive use
of physicians to provide bedside services.
Services: We have been bringing phlebotomy, ultrasound and imaging,
electrocardiogram, CLIA approved tests and coordination of specialized
services to the homebound population of central Maryland since our inception.
We provide primary care services, or work in conjunction with existing
primary care physicians who cannot reach their patients. Physicians'
House Calls works in coordination with all home health agency providers
and we utilize hospitals to facilitate in-patient care.
Our office has a highly developed phone and communication system to return messages in a timely manner. Our physicians are available via cell phone after hours, making our practice available by phone on a 24 hour, 7 days a week basis.
Our experience is that a physician's input is the best way to avoid
unnecessary transport of the patient (
please note the March 2000
National House Call Day statement).
