Imagine Pediatrics has released its first annual Impact Report, showing that its 24/7 integrated virtual and in-home care model for children with special health care needs is cutting avoidable acute utilization and lowering payer costs. The company reports supporting more than 70,000 medically complex children across seven states and Washington, D.C. through over 300,000 virtual, digital, and in-home encounters in just over two years.

According to the report, this model helped avert more than 5,000 preventable emergency department and urgent care visits, with roughly 80% of those children requiring no acute follow-up care within 30 days, and delivered more than 8,350 additional “safe days at home” over an 18‑month period. Imagine Pediatrics also cites a 24% reduction in Admissions Per Thousand in the 12 months after enrollment, alongside an +86 Net Promoter Score from families, indicating strong satisfaction and trust in the care model.

Financially, the company reports more than $65 million in annual savings for two health plan partners over a 12‑month period, achieved through value‑based arrangements with Medicaid and commercial plans and collaborations with risk‑bearing providers, specialists, and community resources. These results position Imagine Pediatrics as a cost‑containment and quality‑improvement lever for plans facing rising pediatric complexity and shrinking inpatient pediatric capacity.

CEO George Boghos said the data demonstrates that continuously available, pediatrician‑led, multidisciplinary teams that integrate medical, behavioral, and social support can expand access and improve outcomes amid growing pediatric system constraints. He emphasized that every metric in the report translates into more time at home for children and less burden on caregivers, while still meeting stringent cost and quality objectives for payers.

The report also highlights external validation and growth momentum, including the 2025 HLTH Kid’s Health Best In Class Award and a $67 million Series B funding round that is supporting further geographic and partnership expansion. As Imagine Pediatrics scales, management is positioning the company as a sustainably scalable, tech‑enabled pediatric medical group designed to serve high‑acuity children through risk‑based, value‑oriented contracts.

Strategically, the company is targeting states and markets where pediatric inpatient units are closing or consolidating, arguing that virtual and in‑home models can mitigate access gaps for children with complex conditions. By integrating medical, behavioral, and social care into a single, always‑on platform, Imagine Pediatrics is aiming to become a core infrastructure partner for health plans and providers seeking to manage total cost of care and outcomes for this high‑need, high‑cost pediatric segment.
