Mobile Health Care Coach launched

Jefferson Health is expanding health care access in Northampton County with the launch of its new Mobile Health Care Coach, a motor coach equipped to deliver medical services directly to communities throughout the region.

The mobile unit features two exam rooms where patients can receive vaccines, blood work and medical tests. It also includes virtual care technology that allows patients to connect remotely with clinicians.

The coach is designed to improve access to health care in areas where services may be geographically difficult to reach or economically limited. It can partner with schools during health events, support workplace wellness initiatives for businesses, and provide services at specialty and community events.

The Mobile Health Care Coach joins Jefferson Health’s other community-based health care initiatives, including mobile mammography coaches and the Miles of Smiles dental van operated through Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital.

St. Luke’s University Health Network

Campuses among 100 Top Hospitals in US

St. Luke’s University Health Network has been named to Premier Inc.’s 100 Top Hospitals list published by Modern Healthcare magazine.

This is the 12th time in a row and the 14th time overall that St. Luke’s hospitals have been recognized among the 100 Top Hospitals in the United States. St. Luke’s is the only health network in the greater Lehigh Valley region to ever earn this distinction.

In Pennsylvania, only five hospitals earned a place on the 100 Top Hospitals list. Four of the five are St. Luke’s campuses:

• St. Luke’s University Hospital (comprising the Bethlehem, Allentown and Sacred Heart campuses) was recognized for the 13th time.

• St. Luke’s Anderson Campus was recognized for the eighth year in a row.

• St. Luke’s Upper Bucks Campus was named for the second year in a row and the fourth time overall.

• St. Luke’s Monroe Campus was named to the list for the first time.

Network honored for care planning

St. Luke’s University Health Network has been named a recipient of the 2025 Richard L. Doyle Award for Innovation and Leadership in Healthcare by MCG Health, part of the Hearst Health network and the industry’s source of truth for trusted clinical guidance.

The Doyle Award recognizes exceptional use of evidence-based guidance and transformative care models that advance quality, improve outcomes, and reduce unnecessary costs.

Doyle Award recipients are selected annually by an independent panel of health care experts who are not affiliated with MCG. Members of the SLUHN team will be recognized at the MCG Client Forum, June 1–3, 2026, in Aventura, Florida, where they will share insights from the award-winning initiative.

Network implements stroke care technology

St. Luke’s University Health Network has become the first health care system in the region and one of the first nationwide to implement AngioFlow™ by RapidAI, a breakthrough perfusion imaging technology.

AngioFlow is an advanced brain blood flow imaging tool used for acute stroke evaluation, said Dr. Martin Oselkin, neurointerventional radiologist. Traditionally, patients are sent to a CT scanner for perfusion imaging to help physicians make the decision for thrombectomy (clot removal) or not, but AngioFlow allows St. Luke’s to skip the CT scanner and perform the perfusion study right in the operating room.
