A regional approach to timely, personalized care Blackbird's hybrid model combines virtual and in-person appointments, matching children with appropriate clinical expertise across its regional team. The care setting is guided by each child's needs and may evolve over time. Virtual new patient evaluations allow families to begin the process from home.
