Our team went to Kansas City to connect with the people meeting the moment in mobile health!

From the Driving Health Campaign convening, where our Executive Director, Mary Kathryn Fallon joined mobile health leaders to discuss the sector’s growth and future, to the Mobile Healthcare Association annual conference, where our team led five presentations on topics ranging from quality and sustainability to partnerships, we spent the weekend with leaders and teams from across the country who are strengthening healthcare in their communities.

We know the power of mobile health. Kansas City gave us the chance to see it in action.

❤️ Mobile health teams aren’t just filling gaps in the healthcare system. They’re helping change how care is delivered and strengthening the system itself. ❤️

Here’s what that looks like on the ground:

➡️ In Boston, Boston Medical Center (BMC)’s Curbside Care is reshaping maternal and newborn care by bringing it directly to families’ homes. By meeting families where they are, the team is building continuity of care before and after delivery and connecting families with BMC and community resources.

➡️ Texas A&M University Health Science Center’s Mobile Clinic is tackling two challenges at once: rural access to care and the rural healthcare workforce. The program brings nurse practitioner-led primary care to rural communities while giving nursing students hands-on experience in those same communities.

➡️ In Long Island, NY, Stony Brook Medicine’s mobile team recognized that bringing a mammography van into a community doesn’t solve every access barrier. Patients still need a way to get there. Through a grant-funded program, the team provides Uber Health rides to uninsured and underinsured patients.

➡️ Le Bonheur Children's Hospital’s mobile clinic turned school districts into a gateway to care, bringing pediatric services directly into rural West Tennessee schools. Through those partnerships, the program connects students with primary, behavioral and specialty care in places where children already are.

➡️ AltaMed Health Services showed the agility of mobile health when a community needed help fast. After a warehouse fire in Boyle Heights, the team brought respiratory assessments, oxygen checks, mental health support and care navigation directly to affected residents. Already embedded in the community, the team could adapt quickly and respond where help was needed.

This is mobile health leadership in action: bringing care closer, building partnerships, responding to community needs and finding new ways to make the healthcare system work better for the people it serves.

We left Kansas City inspired by the people leading this work and by what they’re creating for the future of care.

You know you work at Mobile Health Map when you can’t pass a mobile clinic without stopping! ❤️

This summer:

📷 1: While on vacation in California, Michael Lawler stopped by Altura Centers for Health for a visit.

📷 2: Kait Guild came across a mobile clinic while traveling in southern Portugal.

📷 3-6: And our Co-Director at The Family Van, Rainelle Walker-White, spotted them all across Boston, which is extra special for us. We know firsthand how much mobile clinics can mean to the communities they serve, and seeing them out in our own city is always a little reminder of why this work matters.

For our team, these unexpected sightings are a fun reminder that mobile health is happening in communities everywhere. ❤️

With the school year underway, mobile clinics are heading into schools, too!

Across the country, mobile health programs are partnering with schools to bring healthcare directly to students, from primary care and preventive services to behavioral and mental health support.

The approach is straightforward: Instead of asking families to fit another appointment into an already crowded day, bring care to a place students already are.

We’re seeing this model take shape in communities across the country:
❤️ Cincinnati Children's Mobile Care Center is partnering with two Ohio high schools to provide primary care during the school day.

❤️ All Care Health Center’s Mobile Medical Clinic provides primary medical care at six school campuses in Iowa and has recently expanded access to school-based behavioral health services.

❤️ Metro Community Health Center’s Heals on Wheels partners with the Wilkinsburg School District in Pennsylvania to provide comprehensive healthcare, preventive services, state-mandated screenings, and mental health support.

The partnerships vary. The idea is consistent: bring care closer to where young people already are.

As schools become an increasingly important setting for healthcare delivery, mobile clinics are showing what can happen when healthcare providers and schools work together. ❤️

How can states use Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) funding to show impact from day one?

In rural Oregon, Dr. Rebecca Chown, OD, FAAO of Envision EyeCare for All offers one example.

Founded in 2023, Dr. Chown has built a strong mobile eye care program through community partnerships, demonstrating the need for rural eye care and showing what the model could achieve.

Now, RHTP funding is helping her bring that work to more rural communities by:

✅ Expanding access to comprehensive eye exams and glasses

✅ Training other providers to expand diabetic eye screening capacity

✅ Strengthening connections with rural healthcare providers, schools, and senior centers

The lesson for states is important: RHTP funding can do more than launch new programs. It can help scale and sustain community-rooted models that already have the partnerships, experience, and track record to turn funding into care.

How could your state use RHTP funding to scale mobile health models that have already built trust, partnerships, and a track record of impact?

What happens when a mobile clinic brings behavioral health care to students instead of asking students to come to care?

More young people can access care.

At Memorial Hospital in Carthage, IL, behavioral health services are delivered directly at schools — making it easier for children and teens to access care where they already are.

The difference is striking:

➡️ 90% attendance with the mobile behavioral health unit

compared with

➡️ 62% attendance for regular clinic-based counseling.

That’s a powerful reminder that where care is delivered can make a difference in whether young people are able to receive it.

And the program is growing.

What began as one mobile unit serving 7 schools has expanded to two units serving 13 schools, while the behavioral health team has grown from one provider to three.

For young people experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and other behavioral health needs, bringing care directly to schools can help remove barriers, connect students with support and make it easier to get the care they need.

📖 Read the full article to see how Memorial Medical Clinic Mobile is expanding behavioral health access for young people — and what its experience can teach us about the power of mobile care.

Rural Health Transformation is becoming real on the ground.

After months of planning and applications, RHTP investments are now beginning to reach communities across the country.

In Alabama, here’s what that means for mobile healthcare.

Faulkner University has received $2.08 million to establish the Eagle Care Mobile Health Network, using two mobile healthcare units, virtual visits, remote health monitoring and care coordination to bring ongoing services directly to underserved rural communities across eight counties.

The investment is about more than putting healthcare on wheels. It reflects a broader approach to rural health that connects mobile care, technology, remote monitoring and care coordination to bring services closer to where people live.

We can’t wait to see the impact this work has across Alabama’s communities.

What does it take to build a resilient healthcare system? For rural communities, barriers like provider shortages, geographic isolation, and transportation challenges can make accessing care difficult. Disasters can make those barriers even greater.

Mobile healthcare can help bring care where it’s needed. But being ready to move isn’t enough.

New research published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health examines a nurse-led mobile clinic program at Texas A&M University and its role in rural healthcare access, continuity of care, and disaster preparedness.

The study offers an important takeaway for the mobile healthcare field:
🔴 Building resilient healthcare systems requires more than a vehicle, equipment, and trained providers. It also requires the policies, partnerships, data systems, and decision-making structures needed to mobilize care when and where it’s needed most.

During the 2025 Central Texas flooding, the mobile clinic was prepared to respond but ultimately could not deploy because of administrative barriers.

Read the research to explore what this experience can teach us about building mobile healthcare systems that are not only accessible, but resilient and ready to respond.

What will it take to build a sustainable financial foundation for mobile healthcare?

If you’re attending the Mobile Healthcare Association’s 22nd Annual Mobile Health Clinics Conference, join our own Kait Guild for “Building Sustainable Financing for Mobile Health: From Grants to Braided Funding,” a timely cross-sector conversation on the future of mobile health financing.

Kait is bringing together leaders to examine what it will take to build more resilient funding models for mobile healthcare.

The panel brings perspectives from across the financing ecosystem — from reimbursement and value-based care to philanthropy, corporate investment, and the realities of operating mobile healthcare programs:

❤️ Rebecca Baker, BSN, RN, BS Ed, ACHE, Synergy 3C - The Clinical Consulting Cooperative — bringing expertise in value-based care, Medicaid, reimbursement, and emerging payment models

❤️ Amelia Rukema, Maine Mobile Health Program — bringing the mobile health operator and FQHC perspective, including what braided funding looks like in practice

❤️ Stewart Hudson, Leon Lowenstein Foundation, Inc. — bringing a systems-level philanthropic perspective on infrastructure, collaboration, and strengthening the mobile health field

❤️ Meredith Tierney, Sanofi US— bringing the corporate partnership perspective and experience with long-term investment in community-based healthcare

Together, they’ll explore how these perspectives and funding streams can help build stronger, more resilient mobile healthcare programs.

We’re excited to bring this conversation to the field and advance thinking about the future of mobile healthcare.
