On-Sites Go Mobile

An article in the Kaiser Health News cited a new option in on-site clinics, the mobile health van.  Kaiser apparently now offers this service which goes from site-to-site providing services at multiple locations.   Kaiser is planning three of these mobile units and has already visited 100 employer work sites with the van now on the road.  The upside of this type of service is that it can provide primary care services (and perhaps other services as well) to multiple sites with a smaller capital investment.  The downside is that the provider/vendor must have the core services located at a central site or you lose the comprehensive capabilities that are needed to truly impact costs and overall health of your employees long term.
