Brentwood-based Monogram Health seeks to provide a modern version of those old-fashioned doctor house calls.Â
The health care system is set up to focus on each condition a person has on a standalone basis — nephrologist for kidney issues and endocrinologist for diabetes, and so on. Employing its own physicians, Monogram seeks to bring multi-speciality providers to the home, in an effort to cut down on doctor visits.Â
