DispatchHealth provides on-demand, in-home medical care as an alternative to emergency room and hospital visits. Mobile medical teams, including physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners, treat a wide range of conditions at patients' homes and bring CLIA-certified labs, diagnostic tools, IV fluids, and medications to handle about 80% of what an ER can address. Care is organized into Acute Care, Advanced Care (hospital-at-home), and Extended Care (post-acute), with visits requested by phone or online and pre-screened for suitability. Revenue comes from insurance reimbursements and partnerships with health systems and ACOs, often using shared-savings models to reduce ER visits and readmissions; growth has come from large funding rounds and acquisitions to expand nationwide, with a goal of delivering high-acuity care at home that is convenient and cost-effective.
