Mobile Clinic Finder & ROI Calculator

MobileHealthMap.org is a dual-purpose website focused on mapping all mobile health programs across the country, visually demonstrating the extensive network of communities served by mobile clinics, and offering mobile healthcare providers an online tool for calculating an ROI (return-on-investment) ratio for their mobile health services with a quantified value of mobile health clinic interventions that defines costs spared to our nation’s greater healthcare system.

Add Your Mobile Health Program to the Map

MobileHealthMap.org is intended to show where every registered mobile health program is located throughout the United States. Our objective for the mapping component of the website is two-fold: 1) to enhance awareness among the public, government agencies, and healthcare policy decision-makers of the extensive nationwide scope of mobile healthcare services; and 2) to facilitate the public’s ease of access to mobile health clinics in their communities.

The Map locates mobile health programs that offer a broad spectrum of services, including medical care (preventative, primary, and specialty care), mammography, and oral healthcare. Populations being served, although predominantly focused on the underserved and uninsured, include group employees and military personnel. If your organization is a mobile healthcare provider, we encourage you to join us in continuing to develop this innovative website tool. To put your mobile health clinic on the map, click here.

Calculating the ROI Value of Your Mobile Health Program

A major challenge for your organization is to prove the definitive value of your mobile health services. A complementary component of MobileHealthMap.org is a Return on Investment (ROI) Calculator that allows your organization to enter data related to the preventative care services provided on your mobile health clinic, the annual number of visitors to the mobile clinic, and annual operating costs. You will receive a calculated ROI for your mobile health program. As an example, the ROI may be 1:35 – that is, for every operational dollar that is invested in your mobile health program, your organization is saving the greater health care system $35 – achieved as a result of your program’s prevention of costly illnesses and avoidance of emergency department visits.

Currently, the Map is designed to calculate an ROI for programs focused on providing services that are preventative care oriented, including medical primary care and mammography services. Future generations of the calculator will be designed for oral healthcare and programs that are singular medical specialty oriented, such as diabetes or eye care.
