Living Well with Sigma Humans.: House Calls Reimagined: The History and Future of Personalized Healthcare
Description
Episode Description:
In this episode of Living Well with Sigma Humans, we take a deep dive into the fascinating history and modern resurgence of house calls. Once a cornerstone of healthcare, house calls accounted for nearly 40% of doctor visits in the early 20th century, offering a personal and compassionate approach to medicine. But over time, they faded into the background as hospitals and clinics became the dominant model. So, why are house calls making a comeback in the 21st century?
Join us as we explore the factors driving this transformation—from advancements in telehealth and portable diagnostic tools to the growing demand for personalized, patient-centered care. We’ll uncover the societal shifts, such as an aging population and the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, that have reignited interest in receiving care at home.
Discover how house calls are revolutionizing healthcare for seniors, individuals with mobility challenges, and anyone seeking convenience without sacrificing quality. Learn about the benefits for patients, physicians, and the healthcare system as a whole—reducing hospital overcrowding, improving health outcomes, and bringing back the human connection that’s often missing in modern medicine.
