House Call Doctors

Doctor's In The House!

More and more, the age-old statement "The doctor's in the house" will resonate with American families all across the country. Hundreds of physicians around the nation are reviving the tradition that faded, but never really went away: the house call.

Within the healthcare industry that is dominated by high overhead, long work hours, and cost-obsessed, speedy, often impersonal medical care, physicians are opting for transitioning from their office- or hospital-based positions into a more viable, pleasing way to practice medicine. Other than the appeals of more free time, schedule flexibility, and low overhead, physicians are contributing to the revival of the house call doctor because of the potential for profit. In the past few years alone, Medicare reimbursement to physicians for house calls has increased by up to 50%. This being said, more and more physicians who transition to medical house call and/or cash pay medical practices are earning the same amount of money - or more - than seeing patients in a typical office setting.

Another reason for the revival is the increased level of interest by patients seeking premium medical services in the comfort and convenience of their own homes. There is a substantially growing number of elderly and chronically ill patients who live at home that would far benefit from such a service. Patients of this and other sorts have a high demand for more personalized, convenient, and faster medical care. Apart from the convenience, patients are also interested in house call services due to the reason of having to wait weeks or months for appointments in a regular doctor's office. In addition, hospital emergency rooms are flooded with non-emergency cases, furthering the problem.

The medical house call practices of today will commonly see patients for most kinds of medical problems, but may exclude those that are potentially life-threatening, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, loss of consciousness, serious trauma, or severe problems with a pregnancy. In these cases, patients are advised to head to the hospital for emergency care treatment.

Several physicians in the field started their niche medical practice by taking only house-call appointments, or operating "micro-practices," which refer to the physican working without front-office staff and nurses to see their patients. These physicians are undoubtedly grateful for the opportunities that starting a medical house call practice offers - low overhead, fixed fees and high reimbursement rates, and schedule flexibility.

Simply put, the medical house call practice module is far better suited to both physicians' and patients' lifestyles. Physicians are tired of long hours, HMOs, and no free time. Patients are tired of waiting to be seen, and then receiving often impersonal, rushed care.
