DocGo will work closely with EmblemHealth to bring timely in-home services to New York and Connecticut patients after hospitalization to close preventive health care gaps. Using a value-based model that prioritizes high-quality, in-home health care, the program will reduce hospital readmissions, lower costs, and improve health outcomes. This program marks DocGo’s launch of services into Connecticut.
Through the partnership, patients will receive in-home healthcare services, including transitional care management following recent hospital discharges. Bringing care to members' homes makes preventive screenings and chronic care management more accessible. Available services include diabetic retinal eye exams, bone density tests, A1C screenings, blood pressure control support, and colorectal cancer screenings. Bringing these services into the home can lead to earlier disease detection, prevent many avoidable escalations, and help patients stay out of the hospital.
