Problem
Many K-12 students lack consistent access to healthcare, leading to increased absenteeism and hindering their ability to receive timely medical evaluations and treatment. Traditional healthcare models often require students to leave campus, disrupting their learning and placing a burden on parents or guardians.
Solution

Through a custom telehealth platform, students can be evaluated and treated for a range of conditions, from common illnesses to mental health concerns. SchoolMed aims to reduce absenteeism, improve student health outcomes, and provide convenient access to care for families, regardless of insurance status. The program also offers preventative care, including yearly check-ups and sports physicals, to support the overall well-being of students. By partnering with school districts, Goodside Health integrates healthcare seamlessly into the school environment, creating a healthier and more supportive learning environment.
