Amanda LeFever is President and CFO of Mission Mobile Medical Group, the world’s largest mobile healthcare provider since 2020. She has helped expand its reach to 42 states, driving financial leadership and a mission to make healthcare accessible to all.
I’m Amanda LeFever, President and CFO at Mission Mobile Medical Group. In 2020, we launched the company from my driveway, with one goal: to deliver healthcare to every corner of the country.
Five years later, we’re working with 250 partners on programs across 42 states and have become the world’s largest mobile healthcare company. I lead our team on the financial front. I believe in valuing all people, and how long you live shouldn’t be determined by your zip code. I support our people and our partners every day to help them make that a reality in their communities and across our country.
I’m in disbelief, mainly because I’m not the one who should be receiving awards—our team is an amazing group of world-class winners. This award is not a spotlight on me but a reflection of our team, their time, talent, winning attitude, and daily discipline. It validates that a small group of dedicated individuals can truly create positive change in the world.
I applied because the achievements of our people and partners deserve to be recognized on the national stage. Our story is sincere and straightforward: value people, show up every day, and do the right thing for a long time. We’re on a mission to serve those who serve others, and we believe mobile healthcare can create community in our country, add tremendous efficiency, and unlock value across the healthcare system.
Most of all, this team never quits. Their authenticity turns heads in any room, and that should win them awards.
My husband lost his job. We had this idea for a while, but that put us on the starting line. One week after we incorporated, COVID shut down everything. We cashed in our life insurance, drained our savings, and borrowed whatever money we could. Our kid coloured next to us while we took Zoom calls. Every leader says they’re "all in," but that was a real period of doubt that turned to determination.
Obstacles are everywhere. We’re open-book management, and one Monday, I had to tell the team we had $14.87 in our bank account and couldn’t make payroll unless we generated revenue that week. But they didn’t shy away from it. They hustled and produced results. They just refused to fold. And we lived to see another day.
Every article amplifies our voice and our vision. I hope that when people read about us, it influences how they think about health, caring for their neighbors, and how difficult it is for some Americans to access the healthcare system.
It provides an opportunity to recognize your team. When you're in startup mode and moving quickly, you don’t look around that often and say thanks to everyone rowing the boat. Most days, you’re focused on survival, but they’ve done some remarkable things.
There are too many to name; they believed in the mission long before it became a business.
Healthcare is finally acknowledging that we have a distribution problem. There is no shortage of doctors and other professionals able to provide high-quality, affordable healthcare if they were dynamically distributed to the right places.
The future belongs to dynamic, responsive systems, and Mission Mobile Medical is already there with AI analytics, scheduling apps, and whole product solutions to solve health disparities via satellite primary care and specialty clinics.
You will never feel completely ready to lead. Be willing to try and fail. My best advice is to get comfortable being uncomfortable. If you keep showing up at the right place, doing the right things, for the right reasons, the road will rise to meet you. Progress matters more than perfection.
Be real. Tell the truth about what it took to get where you are. Include the messy parts. My friend John always says, “People will like you for your success, but love you for your failures.”
We launched two non-profits – an association to unite mobile health professionals, and a global research consortium. Our vision is to establish a mobile health program in every county in the United States by 2030.
We started with an idea and each other. Today, we’re the largest mobile healthcare company in the world. Not because we had everything figured out, but mostly because we never stopped learning.
