What happens when healthcare stops waiting for people to find it?
Care In Motion: On The Road is a narrative podcast exploring the people, communities, and mobile healthcare programs bringing care closer to where life happens. Through powerful stories from patients, providers, mobile healthcare leaders, researchers, and other experts in the field, the series takes listeners inside a model of care expanding access in communities across the country.
From rural towns to urban neighborhoods, each episode explores how mobile clinics work, who they serve, the challenges they face — including the population relying in Medicare and Medicaid — and what they can teach us about making healthcare more accessible, responsive, and community-centered.
Whether you're part of the healthcare field or simply curious about the future of care, Care In Motion: On The Road offers an inside look at the people and programs bringing healthcare beyond traditional walls.

2. Serving Those Who Need It Most

4. It Takes More Than a Clinic
Before a mobile clinic can show up for a patient, a lot of people have to show up for the clinic. A health system has to believe in the idea. A funder has to invest in the work.

In this episode of Care In Motion: On The Road, we go behind the scenes of the relationships that make mobile healthcare possible—and help keep it moving. Through stories from Phillip Levy, Patrick Dineen, Krystal Stewart, Whi...
