Our History

Our History

The practice of healthcare providers making house calls and visiting patients in their own homes has existed for many years. However, the development of effective organized visiting physician services can be traced back to the 19th century. As healthcare professionals, we observed that patients were not receiving the dedicated care they deserved, which led to the creation of Visiting Physician. Initially, healthcare was mainly delivered in the patient’s home due to the limited availability of hospitals and the perception of them as a last resort option. Visiting physician services played a crucial role in providing medical care to individuals who were unable to travel or access hospital facilities, particularly in rural areas where healthcare was lacking.

The Blue Shield system was established in the early 20th century as a means of providing healthcare coverage specifically for teachers residing in rural areas. It involved physicians traveling to remote locations to deliver medical care and services. Over time, visiting physician services became more structured and progressed alongside improvements in transportation and medical technology. The introduction of the telephone and subsequently the internet made communication between patients and physicians more convenient, further supporting the advancement of visiting physician services.

Presently, visiting physician services continue to have a significant impact on healthcare. They offer primary care, urgent care, palliative care, and specialized care tailored to homebound individuals, the elderly, and those with chronic conditions who prefer to experience healthcare in their own homes.The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the importance of visiting physician services, as many patients turned to remote medical care to reduce their exposure risk. Telemedicine and telehealth services have gained popularity, enabling doctors to virtually consult and treat patients as needed.

In conclusion, the roots of visiting physician services trace back centuries with healthcare providers conducting house calls. As time progressed, these services became more organized and adapted to the evolving healthcare landscape, incorporating technology to meet the preferences of patients who prefer home care.
