Benefits of 1-800-Call Doc® for Home Health Agencies

  1. Our physicians are specialists in the care of patients in the home.

  2. CALL DOC physicians operate in a similar fashion to ER physicians. They do not have office-based practices or admitting privileges at any hospital.

  3. Our physicians are on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week‹ in an emergency, a CALL DOC physician can be reached for a telephone consult within minutes‹ even if the caller is not a CALL DOC patient.

  4. CALL DOC physicians provide lab, EKG, X-Ray and other critical diagnostic tests in the patientıs home, reducing the possibility of the patient being lost to the ER.

  5. CALL DOC physicians can act as Medical Directors with the only two Home Health Medical Directors in San Diego certified by the American Academy of Home Care Physicians.

  6. CALL DOC physicians work closely with a patientıs personal physician (PCP) by only seeing the patient while they are homebound and immediately forwarding their medical records for follow-up.

  7. CALL DOC can participate in joint contracting with Home Health Agencies for early discharge and other case management programs.
