SAN FRANCISCO– Doctor On Demand, the nation’s leading virtual care provider, today announced that it has been selected as the winner of the “Best Overall Digital Health Company” award in the fifth annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global health and medical technology market.
Over the last year, Doctor On Demand experienced significant growth in its Total Virtual Care™ services, particularly in relation to its Virtual Primary Care and integrated behavioral health offerings. It was also the first virtual care provider to extend medical services to over 33 million Medicare Part B beneficiaries nationwide in response to COVID-19.
“This past year has brought innumerable challenges that we have had to face as an industry, as an organization, and as individuals. There has never been a more critical time to deliver whole person care, and I am incredibly proud of the work that our team does every day to ensure that that need is being met,” said Robin Glass, President, Doctor On Demand. “We are honored to be recognized by MedTech Breakthrough for all that we have accomplished in the last year.”
In March 2021, Doctor On Demand and Grand Rounds Health announced their merger to form a new integrated virtual care company to raise the standard of healthcare. The new company will be the first of its kind with a nationwide practice of diverse, dedicated providers and a multidisciplinary care team providing end-to-end primary care, advanced specialty care, chronic condition management, and behavioral health.
“Doctor On Demand’s nationwide practice of dedicated providers and their innovative technology platform delivers better experiences, better efficiency, and better outcomes for patients and partners,” said James Johnson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “Doctor On Demand truly stepped up with ‘breakthrough’ innovation in the virtual care space this year and we’re extremely proud to recognize them as our ‘Best Overall Digital Health Company’ award winner 2021.”
