“New Concierge Medicine” By OnSite Medical Access
Emergency room physicians Chris Lang, MD and Neal Sikka, MD wanted to start a medical care on-site program that offers the best in customer service, convenience, the ability to provide a multitude of medical care options and a partnership with a major medical institution, the George Washington University Hospital. This concierge medicine service is GW OnSite Access.
OnSite Medical Access is a physician house call program. The program provides prompt medical access in the comfort of your home, place of employment, hotel or wherever you may be, 24 hours a day/7 days a week. They are board certified emergency room doctors, physician assistants and nurses that are affiliated with George Washington University Hospital. This is a health care option for people who need urgent medical attention but prefer to be seen at their convenience.
How it Works:
— 24/7 call center/answering service — On-call provider paged — Response time: direct patch to on call provider — Real-time interface of patient with physician — Determination if appropriate for on-site care or need referral to specialist/ER — On-site within the hour of call
Exclusive emergency medicine trained physicians evaluate, diagnose and treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries for adults and children:
