ABOUT ROCKET DOCTOR
Rocket Doctor is a digital health platform and marketplace that is breaking down obstacles that limit access to quality, comprehensive and cost-effective healthcare. Our proprietary software equips doctors with the tools to run successful independent practices in virtual and hybridized in-person models of care, enabling them to provide tailored support to patients in rural and remote communities and on Medicaid across the United States, with an initial focus on California, NY and Maryland.
Leveraging large language models, AI/ML and wireless medical devices, Rocket Doctor is bridging the healthcare divide, connecting patients to equitable and accessible healthcare regardless of age, location, or financial status.
We believe that every person deserves equal access to quality healthcare and are looking for a team member who is motivated to learn, grow, and innovate, while making a meaningful difference. Since launch we have enabled more than 400 MDs to provide care to more than 700,000 patient visits across Canada, and over 30 MDs to provide care to more than 6000 patients across the United States.
We recently joined the team at Treatment.com AI, becoming a publicly-traded company this past Spring, alongside winning a contract with Central California Alliance for Health and their 450,000 members as well as being selected as the clinical partner on a CVS Health Foundation-funded grant for care of seniors.
