A closer look at the HouseCalls visit model

Optum HouseCalls is designed to help health plans reach members who may face barriers to traditional care. Clinicians conduct in-home or virtual visits that include health assessments, screenings and lab tests to uncover gaps that might otherwise go unaddressed.

During each visit, clinicians focus on building trust and encouraging open dialogue, giving members dedicated time to discuss their health concerns. Findings are shared with primary care physicians through timely outreach and clear post-visit summaries, supporting continuity of care beyond the visit itself.

With nationwide availability, including rural counties, and a track record of large-scale delivery, HouseCalls helps health plans extend their reach while maintaining accuracy, collaboration and a member-centered experience.
