RESEARCH: Expanding Access to Care Through Mobile Health

Beyond the Clinic Walls

Georgetown University’s Center on Health Insurance Reforms conducted a review of over 160 studies to understand how mobile health can expand health care access, improve health outcomes and lower the cost of care in places where doctors don’t practice and telehealth doesn’t reach.  

In rural areas and inner-city neighborhoods, care is often hard to find. But expanding mobile health can help to close the care gap: Studies show mobile care delivery not only supports health, it saves money and benefits the entire system.  

Explore the research to see why so many communities across the country are turning to mobile health programs to meet their health needs.
