BOSTON, Massachusetts and DUBLIN, Ohio [March 31, 2026] — Current Health, the leading clinical platform powering advanced therapy and hospital-level care-at-home models, announced today that Cardinal Health’s Velocare™ solution will offer last-mile fulfillment, installation and retrieval of Current Health’s in-home clinical monitoring kits, streamlining patient onboarding for hospital-at-home programs, while reducing strain on clinical teams. This collaboration helps health systems simplify operations, lower program costs, and reduce vendor complexity so their programs can grow more sustainably.
Cardinal Health Velocare, a distributed supply chain solution, provides last mile, end-to-end logistics and inventory management for hospital-at-home programs. It rapidly delivers and maintains supplies and technology and ensures device readiness needed for high-acuity care in the home. Since its launch in 2022, Velocare has supported dozens of health systems and hospitals across major U.S. metropolitan areas, completing tens of thousands of home deliveries from coast-to-coast.
“Acute care at home programs only scale when the clinical and operational pieces work together seamlessly,” said Christopher McGhee, CEO of Current Health. “As the leading clinical platform for advanced therapies and hospital-level care at home, we see the last mile as one of the biggest constraints on growth. Working with Velocare gives health systems a simpler patient onboarding workflow, supporting more enrollments and higher patient census capacity.”
As part of this effort, Current Health and Velocare will integrate their platforms to streamline patient setup and reduce duplicate data entry. Care teams will gain real-time visibility into supplies and equipment delivery within existing workflows while Current Health’s 24/7 nursing team delivers continuous monitoring, outreach, and timely care escalation.
Running a successful high-acuity care-at-home program requires tight coordination across clinical workflows, equipment delivery, and in-home setup, resupply and waste management. Fragmented logistics and vendor sprawl often create administrative burden for health systems, limiting growth. This collaboration provides a clear solution for health systems looking to scale their programs while removing these burdens through a one-stop-shop approach.
“Since Velocare’s inception, we’ve been proud to play a leading role in helping health systems address workforce shortages, capacity constraints, rising costs and patient preference for in‑home recovery through our last-mile supply chain solution,” said Alex Hoopes, who leads Cardinal Health Velocare as general manager. “Working with platforms like Current Health helps health systems launch and scale acute care-at-home programs more efficiently. Companies advancing these models have an opportunity to work together in ways that simplify the work for health system teams, and our investments are designed to help them move through the early hurdles and grow these programs with confidence.”
