Lurie Children’s Home Specialties & ConditionsHigh-Risk Asthma Program Asthma Mobile Clinic

Asthma Mobile Clinic

Our Asthma Mobile Clinic allows families to receive the same level of comprehensive service from Lurie Children’s physicians and allied health professionals on a mobile unit in their neighborhood. 

This mobile unit was developed to see patients with all severities of asthma. Our multidisciplinary team improves access to asthma care by seeing patients in their own communities twice a month via the mobile clinic. 

Our goal is to provide families with options leading to improved asthma care for their children.

At an Asthma Mobile Health appointment, your child will be seen by an entire team of asthma experts — a pulmonary provider, asthma nurse, asthma educator and social worker. This is the same care your child would receive at the hospital or at one of our other locations. Spirometry (breathing test) is also available at our mobile clinic sites.

Yes, mobile health clinic visits are covered by insurance. They are billed the same as a pulmonary visit would be if a patient was scheduled at one of our other Lurie Children’s locations.

In the state of Illinois every child qualifies for AllKids coverage (regardless of income or citizen status). If your child does not have insurance, we will connect you to our care advisors who can help start the Medicaid process. Please reach out to our team at 312.227.6730 or contact a social worker in our Family Services department at 312.227.1200.

Whenever your child is seen by a pulmonary provider, the provider’s clinic note is sent to the primary care physician on file. This allows the primary care physician to stay up to date on your child’s plan of care, and it allows collaboration between your child’s care team.
