Ready Responders bring medical care straight to your doorstep

The New Orleans start-up company sends medics straight to your door to treat your immediate medical needs and their physicians and nurse practitioners help you get the proper treatment and follow-up care.

The best part? They’ve already made several connections with insurance companies and hospitals that allow them to offer this service at no charge to the patient. Not to mention this service doesn’t just save you money, it can save you time.

“Traditionally visiting the emergency room or urgent care, from the time you left your house to the time you get home, it could be four, six, eight hours to get treatment,” said Ready Responders co-founder Benjamin Swig. “When you call our service we try to get response times of 10 minutes or less.”
