DispatchHealth has successfully closed a merger with Medically Home, creating a leading comprehensive healthcare platform dedicated to delivering complex care at home. Under the combined entity, operating under the DispatchHealth brand, the merger promises to simplify the treatment of serious health needs at home with improved access and outcomes, reducing unnecessary ER visits. The organization now offers a full spectrum of services including ER-alternative care and hospital-alternative care, and supports these with capabilities like Mobile Imaging and a CLIA-certified mobile laboratory. The merger extends DispatchHealth's operations across more than 20 U.S. states and serves over 50 enterprise clients. As part of the merger, leadership has been consolidated, with key figures from both companies assuming critical roles, and Graham Barnes of Medically Home transitioning out of the organization. While specific financial terms of the merger were not disclosed, additional investment was secured from existing investors to support integration and future growth. The DispatchHealth platform continues to leverage its partnerships with major insurance companies and healthcare providers to impact service delivery and patient outcomes positively.
