The Revival of the House Call Doctor

The Revival of the HouseCall Doctor

When most people think about house call doctor visits, they view them as simply a popular practice from the past. Although only slightly less than 5% of the nation's doctors regularly make house calls today, the medical house call industry is swiftly picking up momentum once again. It is a move that is greatly benefiting physicians and patients alike.

We live in a society that has fast become impersonal and technology-focused - especially in the industry of medical or health care. While this emergence of technology has undoubtedly benefited many in terms of advancements in medicine and treating illnesses, there is a growing number of people who are fed up with standard medical practices. These people, particularly the rapidly aging elders of the nation, want to be cared for in a friendly, nurturing, and convenient way. As people age and fall ill, it becomes increasingly difficult to leave the home for office visits. Not to mention, there are many handicapped patients as well who have to arrange for wheelchair vans or ambulances just to visit the doctor.

Thanks to the coming about of more and more physicians seeking to open their own medical house call practices, these people's needs are slowly but surely being met. Many of these physicians are strictly open for house call visits only and have no office. They commonly take appointment requests via phone calls and emails with the overall goal to combine the service of an old-time, small town doctor with the latest technology designed to meet people's emotional - and financial - needs.

Patients are also able to save a considerable amount of time by not having to leave the house to go to the doctor's office, and not having to fill prescriptions. After all, many medical house call physicians travel along with certain medications that can be dispensed on location. Narcotics, however, will likely need to be filled with a prescription.

While highly convenient for patients who wish to receive medical house call services, the reviving industry is also most fitting for physicians. In recent years, Medicare has increased its level or reimbursements for physicians who travel to patients. Just in the past few years alone, Medicare has been billed approximately $1.5 million annually for house calls.

Also, significant advances in technology have enabled popular medical equipment to be smaller and portable. Physicians are able to perform standard procedures, such as skin biopsies and blood draws while outside the office. They are also able to easily access patient medical records through usage of a laptop, as well as resources such as the Physicians' Desk Reference through usage of a hand-held personal digital assistant.

Through a complete "turnkey" practice opportunity, HouseCall Doctors, established since 1998, educates and supports physicians who are ready to make a transition from office-based positions to medical house call practices. There are no royalty or membership fees, and this is not a franchise. HouseCall Doctors can help you transition to a more pleasing, profitable way to practice medicine today.
