Medically Home, SCP Health Partner for At-Home Care Solutions

BOSTON & DALLAS—Medically Home, a tech-enabled services company operationalizing decentralized care to the home for patients, and SCP Health, a national clinical services provider, announced a partnership to enable clinical command center services for health systems providing hospital care at home.

Medically Home is a provider of hospital care delivered in the home. The new offerings combine Medically Home’s experience with SCP’s clinical expertise and specialized providers. Health systems can benefit from scalable, flexible solutions to ramp up additional inpatient care capacity and meet the growing demand for hospital-at-home services.

“By partnering with SCP Health to deliver clinical care services enabled by our logistics solutions, telemedicine platform and clinical model, we are creating a pathway for health systems to implement hospital-at-home care,” said Erin Bartley, chief operating officer of Medically Home. “This approach equips health systems with limited resources or those needing specialized clinical teams to quickly implement and scale their services.”

With more than 50 years of experience, SCP Health is a clinical services provider for hospital and emergency medicine, making this development a natural extension of SCP Health’s core capabilities, the company said. The Medically Home-enabled SCP Virtual Clinical Command Center houses a team of clinicians and registered nurses dedicated to providing 24/7 hospital-level care to patients inside their homes. The partnership offers clients a complete coverage model as well as options for staff augmentation for health systems that rely on their own internal clinical team, enabling them to extend admitting hours, provide night and surge coverage and scale their program more quickly and efficiently.

The SCP Virtual Clinical Command Center already supports two Medically Home health system partners to implement programs tailored to their needs, serving more than 500 patients in only six months. 

“Medically Home, together with SCP Health can make a bigger impact for patients. Working together, we are better able to meet the evolving needs of patients and expand access to care in new and innovative ways,” Lisa Fry, president of Value-Based Care at SCP Health, said.
