Mobile physicians provide home based health care, also known as “house calls.”
Home care doctors perform the same services that house call doctors did years ago. They can diagnose and treat illnesses, write prescriptions and make referrals. The average patient is typically seen once per month, and may vary based on their health and other factors. MPG can help you with ordering:
- mobile labs to come to your home
- mobile xrays and ultrasounds
- home based physical therapy, occupational therapy
- mobile nursing services
- home health aids
- portable oxygen
- medical supplies
- referrals for other specialists
In order to qualify for our services, you must be considered home-bound based on the Medicare guidelines for home-bound status.
