Mobile Healthcare

Improving In-home Patient Care

Acadian Ambulance’s Mobile Healthcare program is a bridge for patient treatment that helps alleviate strain on hospital emergency departments by improving in-home patient care and reducing costs. Mobile Healthcare by Acadian addresses gaps in existing healthcare services by using specially trained Mobile Healthcare paramedics as primary care extenders, educators and patient advocates.

Since the launch of Acadian’s Mobile Healthcare program in New Orleans in 2012, patients were able to be treated at home 96 percent of the time and have not needed to be transported to the hospital. This reduction in transports results in greater patient satisfaction and significant savings for both the patient and insurers.
