For over fifty years, the mission of MobileMed's volunteers, supporters and staff has been to provide quality health care to the uninsured, low income, working poor in Montgomery County, Maryland. Our belief is that free or low-cost medical care can and should be universally delivered in a respectful, competent and compassionate manner to anyone who is in need. To that end, every effort is made to ensure patient-friendly and responsive delivery systems that enhance patient independence and dignity. MobileMed's goal is to reduce the barriers that often are a barrier to receiving health care, such as long waiting times for appointments, providers who don't understand cultural issues, paperwork that is difficult to understand, and plans of care that are difficult to implement due to high costs or other issues.
