Healthcare on Aisle One: OnMed Launches New CareStations at Fiesta Mart in Fort Worth and Missouri City
FORT WORTH, Texas & MISSOURI CITY, Texas, July 07, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OnMed, the nation's leading hybrid healthcare tech company, continues to transform the way people access care, with two new OnMed CareStations launching this July at Fiesta Mart locations in Fort Worth and Missouri City. The Fort Worth CareStation is made possible through grants from Molina Healthcare of Texas, whose support ensures the CareStation can deliver on-site, tech-enabled primary and urgent care services—at no cost to visitors. These CareStations – conveniently placed within trusted neighborhood grocery stores– represent another step in expanding healthcare access in everyday spaces. Shoppers will now have the ability to connect instantly with licensed clinicians in a private, secure environment, right where they are. In a state where 35 counties have no doctor at all, access to care isn't just a convenience, it's a crisis. OnMed's CareStations are closing that gap. These private, high-tech health hubs offer real-time consultations with licensed physicians, supported by advanced diagnostic tools such as thermal imaging, real-time scanning, and remote vital signs monitoring. Each self-contained "Clinic-in-a-Box" is designed to deliver the same personal, attentive experience patients expect from a traditional clinic visit. No waiting room or commute needed. Texas is leading the way in this nationwide shift, now home to five operational OnMed CareStations across communities including Milam, Navarro, Bruni, Fort Worth, and Missouri City. A sixth location in McAllen is slated to go live later this month, further expanding OnMed's reach across the Lone Star State as the country's largest hub for hybrid healthcare innovation. OnMed CareStations are already improving care delivery in homeless shelters, correctional facilities, foster care centers, youth centers, universities and airports. "This is what healthcare access looks like in 2025," said OnMed CEO Karthik Ganesh. "Texas has shown bold leadership in embracing our model, because the need is real, and the opportunity is enormous. From rural deserts to busy cities, we're delivering care where it's needed most." Ribbon Cutting Events: Media is invited to do more than cover the story, come experience it firsthand! Join us as we unveil OnMed's CareStations in Fort Worth and Missouri City. These events will feature ribbon-cutting ceremonies, live demos, remarks from healthcare and community leaders and an opportunity for media attendees to step inside a CareStation and receive a live consultation themselves.

‘Clinic-in-a-Box' could help bridge the rural-urban healthcare divide
AUSTIN (KXAN) – A company is rolling out a new product to expand access to patients in rural areas. OnMed showcased its Clinic-in-a-Box on Wednesday to local media and Texas legislators. The company touts that the 8-by-11-foot 'box' combines the accessibility of telehealth medicine with the infrastructure of in-person care. 'Eighty percent of counties don't have adequate care. In Texas, 35 counties lack access completely, and 150 have very little access,' said Howard Gruverman, the president of OnMed. 'This is a lower cost, lower footprint, ability to address the access.' OnMed's Clinic-in-a-Box looks like a typical primary care physician's exam room. There is a scale, a blood pressure monitor and a hand sanitizer dispenser. But the glaring difference is the large, touch-screen monitor in the pod. Patients from counties where physicians are lacking can enter the device and be connected with a qualified doctor in a larger city in moments, according to OnMed. 'We're working with a lot of local and state governments, including the federal government, to look at where the care deserts are,' Gruverman said. OnMed already has 30 clinics in use across the United States, and Gruverman said he expects that number to jump to 200 by the end of 2025. In Texas, there are active ones in Milam County and in Corsicana. Gruverman said his team is working on activating four additional Texas ones soon. 'We become part of the fabric of the community – to connect people to the proper care, whether it's primary care, urgent care, specialty referrals, food insecurity, food banks, mental health services [and] behavioral services,' he continued. President of the Texas Medical Association, Dr. Ray Callas, said he thinks a product such as Clinic-in-a-Box could be an excellent tool to connect rural patients to doctors, but he said it is essential that the medical team maintains quality care. '[The team] must be an educated, highly trained physician collaboration,' Callas said. 'We have been trying to promote that all Texans have the same access – no matter if you live in a large metropolitan area, or you live in a small farm community, or if you live on the border and there's only 1,000 people in that community,' Callas said.

New White Paper from OnMed Warns of Worsening U.S. Rural Health Crisis — and Offers a Scalable, Tech-Driven Solution
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rural America is home to nearly 68 million people, and 80% of rural counties are medically underserved. In Texas alone, 35 counties exist without a single doctor, and across the country, nearly 200 rural hospitals have shut down since 2005. A staggering 43% of independent physicians have exited the profession in just the last five years. This confluence of doctor shortages, hospital closures, and lack of access has created a national emergency—one that demands more than traditional solutions. 'OnMed is proving that everyday healthcare can be delivered everywhere. Let's not let geography determine healthcare access." - Karthik Ganesh, CEO of OnMed Share Today, OnMed, a pioneer in hybrid healthcare, releases a landmark white paper titled 'How Healthcare Innovation Can Be Born from the Depths of America's Rural Health Crisis.' The paper paints a dire picture—but also outlines a bold, data-backed path forward. Read the full white paper here. 'We are not building the future of healthcare—we've already built it,' says Karthik Ganesh, CEO of OnMed. 'OnMed is proving that everyday healthcare can be delivered everywhere. Let's not let geography determine healthcare access.' A Crisis Reaching A Tipping Point The white paper reveals: 43% decline in independent physicians (2019–2024), with nearly 9,500 doctors leaving rural practice. 194 rural hospitals have closed since 2005. 159 Texas counties lack general surgeons. Only 18% of rural patients have a primary care provider. Patients in rural South and Appalachia are among the least likely to access telehealth due to connectivity and infrastructure gaps. The consequence? Millions of Americans go without basic medical attention—while preventable conditions worsen into crises. Innovation At Work: The OnMed CareStation Already deployed in seven states—including Alabama, Texas, South Carolina, Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, and Nevada —the 8' x 11' 'Clinic-in-a-Box' CareStation delivers affordable, walk-in healthcare to those who need it most. Each station connects patients to licensed clinicians via life-sized HD screens and is equipped to capture vital signs, perform diagnostics, and issue prescriptions on-site—no travel, no waiting rooms, no clinicians required on-site. LaFayette, Alabama, a rural town with a population of 2,700 and a significant physician shortage, served as the ideal location for a CareStation deployment in 2023 as part of a partnership with Auburn University's Rural Health Initiative. Since then, the OnMed CareStation has completed over 2,000 consultations, and has seen almost half of the population of LaFayette with a return rate of 51%. Approximately 40% of all visits have resulted in immediate ePrescriptions sent to local pharmacies. 'This is the kind of care every rural community deserves,' said LaFayette Fire Chief Jim Doody. By delivering immediate and comprehensive healthcare services, the OnMed CareStation is positively impacting LaFayette's significant healthcare access crisis.
