HCAP Partners Launches Integrated Diagnostic Services to Expand Access to Mobile Imaging and Diagnostics
Enhancing Senior Patient Care by Improving Access and Quality of Care While Providing More Convenient Diagnostic Services
SAN DIEGO, CA (March 20, 2025) – HCAP Partners, a California-based private equity firm and nationally recognized impact investor, today announced the launch of Integrated Diagnostic Services, a mobile diagnostics company focused on expanding access to mobile X-ray, ultrasound, electrocardiogram (EKG), echocardiogram services, and laboratory services for residents of skilled nursing facilities, long term care facilities, and home health providers.
Launched to provide a more efficient, cost-effective, and convenient alternative to traditional hospital and clinic-based services, Integrated Diagnostic Services will improve access to timely diagnostics for patients. The company is building a portfolio of on-demand services designed to reduce wait times and enable patients to receive care within hours, eliminating long wait times in emergency rooms, while also offering scheduled appointments.
HCAP Partners led the formation of Integrated Diagnostic Services, which will be headed by industry veterans Kelly McCullum and Rick Navarro, each bringing over 25 years of experience in the mobile radiology sector. Mr. McCullum has played key roles in developing two different national providers of mobile diagnostics over the last three decades, and both executives have been operators instrumental in creating one of the largest providers of mobile radiology services nationwide through organic growth and a roll-up strategy.
"Providing mobile radiology services directly to a patient’s bed, no matter where they may be, is the most timely, cost-effective, and caring means of providing these services. Patients who lack access to these services can face long wait times, endure difficult transportation options, and pay much higher prices traveling to a hospital—if they are even able to make the trip," said Kelly McCullum, CEO of Integrated Diagnostic Services. "The current healthcare model makes it a challenge to provide the highest level of care to seniors in care facilities, and we are happy to leverage technology and industry expertise to help do just that."
"We are excited to be partnering with a highly experienced and talented executive team to bring this platform to market," said Hope Mago, Partner at HCAP Partners. "With approximately 30,000 assisted living communities in the U.S. and 1.2 million licensed beds, the need for mobile diagnostic care will continue to be driven by three key trends: an aging population, a shift toward outpatient and mobile care, and increased demand for diagnostic imaging. As these trends accelerate, Integrated Diagnostic Services is well-positioned to become a leader in mobile diagnostic services.”
Integrated Diagnostic Services plans to expand significantly in the coming years through a combination of growth strategies, including acquisitions, geographic expansion, and service additions. The company is focused on acquiring providers with $1–$30 million in revenue and strong senior-care facility relationships, ensuring strategic alignment and operational synergies. This growth strategy, combined with the expertise of its newly assembled board—bringing together leading executives with over 100 years of collective experience in operating, scaling, and investing in healthcare providers—positions Integrated Diagnostic Services to drive innovation in mobile radiology while creating high-quality jobs for X-ray technicians and mobile healthcare professionals in alignment with HCAP Partners’ Gainful Jobs Approach™.
"We see a significant opportunity to grow our workforce while improving patient outcomes," said McCullum. "As we scale, we are committed to building a strong workforce that supports our mission of providing high-quality, responsive care to underserved populations."
Hope Mago, Partner at HCAP Partners, and Jessica Kim, Vice President at HCAP Partners, played key roles in the creation of Integrated Diagnostic Services. Hope will also serve as a board member for the company, supporting its growth and strategic direction.
