Extending High-Quality Cancer Care Beyond the Clinic: Reimagine Care and MedStar Health Partnership
Reimagine Care, an on-demand cancer care provider, has partnered with MedStar Health to expand access to patient-centered, home-based oncology care across Maryland and Washington, D.C. This collaboration integrates Reimagine Care’s advanced virtual oncology platform into MedStar Health’s established network of ten hospitals and numerous outpatient facilities, enhancing both patient experience and care delivery.
Reimagine Care offers a technology-enabled, multidisciplinary care model that:

- Utilizes AI-powered virtual assistants, ePRO surveys, digital check-ins, and tailored education,

This comprehensive approach ensures that patients receive high-quality, clinically rigorous cancer care while remaining in the comfort of their homes—minimizing the disruption of frequent hospital visits and reducing overall healthcare costs.
The collaboration is expected to:
- Improve patient outcomes through timely symptom management and remote monitoring,
- Decrease emergency department visits and hospitalizations,
- Address care gaps and alleviate clinic burdens,
- Support value-based care efforts that prioritize affordability, accessibility, and patient experience.
MedStar Health—home to the NCI-designated Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center and multiple CoC-accredited hospitals—has a long-standing reputation for innovation and excellence in oncology. This partnership allows MedStar to extend its nationally recognized care model to reach patients in more convenient and inclusive ways.
With the American Cancer Society projecting over two million new cancer cases and more than 600,000 deaths in 2025, the need for accessible, community-based cancer care is urgent. Underserved populations often face significant logistical and financial barriers to receiving timely care. By launching this initiative in Baltimore, the partnership aims to bridge these gaps, especially for diverse communities with limited access to traditional clinic-based treatment.
In uniting advanced technology with compassionate, coordinated care, Reimagine Care and MedStar Health are reshaping the future of cancer care—making it more patient-centric, scalable, and aligned with the needs of today’s healthcare environment.
