ShiftMed’s more than 100,000 professionals will be able to access Uber Health rides directly within the ShiftMed app, and “high-performing” clinicians will earn vouchers for meal and grocery delivery with Uber Eats, according to the Sept. 29 ShiftMed news release.
“Transportation creates a barrier for more than 30 percent of frontline healthcare providers,” stated Jacob Laufer, COO of ShiftMed. “Our care-integrated solution with Uber Health reduces the need for car ownership in urban settings and increases access to shifts in rural settings where public transportation options are limited.”
