DocGo Expands Care Gap Closure Program to Enhance Healthcare Access for Hundreds of Thousands of Medicaid Recipients in California

DocGo Inc. (Nasdaq: DCGO) (“DocGo” or the “Company”), a leading provider of technology-enabled mobile health services, today announced the expansion of a program to enhance healthcare access for California Medi-Cal enrollees/patients/members. The program aims to re-engage patients with the healthcare system, delivering essential care to underserved communities in Sacramento, San Diego, Riverside, Los Angeles, San Bernadino, and Orange County through a partnership with a top 10 national insurance provider.

“This expansion reinforces DocGo’s leadership in facilitating the delivery of high-quality, highly-accessible healthcare,” said Lee Bienstock, CEO of DocGo. “By leveraging technology and mobile clinicians to broaden services in California, we’re removing barriers to care and helping drive the transition to a value-based care system. This program is part of a larger movement toward proactive, preventative care—helping individuals stay healthy, reduce unnecessary hospitalizations, and improve health outcomes across the board.”

A partnership with a leading national insurance plan provides the Company with lists of disengaged patients who require treatment to close care gaps and face challenges accessing the healthcare system. The expansion allows patients to receive care at home or in mobile health centers, helping to eliminate many of the traditional obstacles that have historically discouraged people from engaging with their healthcare providers. In addition to facilitating in-home care gap closures such as well child visits, topical fluoride administration, vaccinations, and hypertension & diabetic control assessments, the Company has plans to facilitate PCP services for patients in the California market to help keep them engaged with their care and remain healthier over time.

“Our services are uniquely positioned to address existing healthcare gaps in California,” said Dr. James Powell, MD, DocGo’s Senior Medical Director. “By leveraging our technology and mobile health centers, we can close over 30 different care gaps and provide tailored, patient-centric care that meets individuals where they are—both geographically and in their healthcare journey. This expansion will have a meaningful impact on improving health outcomes, particularly for underserved populations who often face the greatest barriers to care.”
