DocGo Inc, a leading provider of technology-enabled mobile health services, today announced an expanded partnership with SHL Telemedicine to integrate the SmartHeart® portable 12-lead ECG device across DocGo mobile health care units. This expanded collaboration, initially launched in the New York-New Jersey area, will now bring advanced cardiovascular diagnostics to patients’ homes and underserved communities in additional markets across the country.
“Incorporating SmartHeart® into home visits helps reduce barriers to cardiovascular care, while enabling early intervention and preventing costly emergency room visits.”

According to the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 46% of U.S. counties do not have any cardiologists, highlighting the urgent need for accessible cardiovascular care. SHL Telemedicine’s SmartHeart®, a cutting-edge ECG device enabling high-quality 12-lead ECG performance anytime and anywhere, enhances patient care by eliminating the need for traditional clinic visits for essential cardiovascular screenings. With cardiologist-reviewed results available promptly, this innovation improves patient outcomes, especially for those in areas lacking cardiologists or access to healthcare facilities. This helps to eliminate many of the traditional obstacles that have discouraged people from engaging with cardiovascular healthcare providers.
“This partnership transforms homes and mobile health units into cutting-edge diagnostic hubs, empowering patients with convenient, high-quality care wherever they are,” said Lee Bienstock, CEO of DocGo. “Incorporating SmartHeart® into home visits helps reduce barriers to cardiovascular care, while enabling early intervention and preventing costly emergency room visits.”
