Why Mobile? | History | Leadership | Press
Proving Value: Our goal is to create an innovative method for assessing the benefit and impact of mobile health care. By entering data about a Mobile Health Clinic into this free and confidential site, programs can view the relative value of their program’s contribution to the local community and to the health care system at large. This project will demonstrate the value of prevention and emphasize the profound impact of mobile clinics nationwide.
Building a Research Community: Mobile Health Map is a powerful tool for nationwide collaboration. Individual programs are able to analyze the impact of their own operations, establish benchmarks and learn from colleagues’ experiences. The project enables key stakeholders across academia, government and the mobile health clinic provider network to share findings and coordinate meetings. By promoting collaboration between stakeholders, the project seeks to lay down the groundwork for future advocacy.
