We provide all the customary services you would find in a regular doctor′s office; the difference is that we bring it to you.
In-Home Visits
If you are an aficionado of “old TV”, you probably have watched a doctor walking into a home with his little black bag to care for a sick patient. There were no doctor’s offices until the early to mid-eighteenth century, and hour calls persisted even up to the late 1970’s. The decline in house calls was due primarily to the specialization of medicine, increased testing, and technology requiring patients to come to an office or lab for procedures.
In the 21st century, the in-home visit has returned as a medical specialty of its own, whether home is a private residence or an assisted living facility. Current improvements in technology and testing allow these services to be brought to the home as well, resulting in the same level of care that was previously found only in the doctor’s office. In-home visits save money by providing homebound patients with preventative care. In-home visits also save time with fewer emergency and hospital visits and save patients from many inconveniences such as ambulance transportation, waiting rooms, and exposure to other patient’s illnesses.
Insurance Medicare, Medicaid and secondary insurance typically covers the cost of care. We can also accept payments/copays via checks and credit/debit cards by calling our office. Best Clinic PLLC does not charge any hidden or additional trip fees to come to you, unlike other doctors who make house calls.
