The two companies said the program is anticipated to help thousands in 2023

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DocGo Inc. (Nasdaq:DCGO), a provider of last-mile mobile health services, announced the expansion of its partnership with HealthCare Partners NY, an organization led by physicians with the goal to empower health care providers to deliver exceptional health care to patients in New York.

This strategic partnership marks a milestone in DocGo's mission to offer accessible, quality health care to all individuals. Building on a pilot program completed in December 2022, DocGo has collaborated closely with HealthCare Partners NY to bridge health care gaps and support a value-based model focused on delivering in-home health care services.

Through this expanded collaboration, several thousand patients will benefit from proactive health care services, including annual wellness visits and in-home point-of-care tests such as diabetic retinal eye exams, bone density tests, A1C screenings, blood pressure control support and colorectal cancer screenings. By bringing these services directly to patients' homes and increasing accessibility, the company aims to facilitate more screenings and enable early disease detection.

"At the heart of the health care system are the patients—their needs must always be our top priority," said Anthony Capone, CEO of DocGo. "By using our advanced technology to deliver proactive care to individuals in their own homes, we enhance the convenience and quality of their health care experience. Through our partnership with HealthCare Partners, we are expanding our presence in one of the largest healthcare markets in the country, enabling us to better serve patients and provide them with value-based care that supports their long-term well-being."

According to DocGo, this collaboration has the potential to make a profound impact on patients, allowing thousands of individuals to receive proactive care and maintain better health within the comfort of their homes.

"Accessibility remains a significant barrier to health care for many individuals," said Patrick Adams, CEO of HealthCare Partners NY. "Patients are eager to prioritize their health. By offering essential tests in patients' homes, which are traditionally conducted in health care facilities, we are making it easier and more convenient for patients to receive accurate diagnoses, obtain results and access the treatment they need to lead healthier lives."
