mobile medical clinics for sale in Tennessee
Tennessee stretches five hundred miles from the Appalachian counties in the east to the Delta communities in the west, and rural hospital closures have widened the gap between them. Mobile clinics let Tennessee health systems, FQHCs, universities, and county health departments put services back into those communities.

Why Tennessee Organizations Choose TESCO
TESCO has delivered 17 specialty vehicles to Tennessee organizations since April 2023.
TESCO Specialty Vehicles has been family-owned since 1968. Every unit is purpose-built with steel-cage construction — never a retrofitted RV — and most builds deliver in about 90 days.
Tennessee programs frequently cover both ends of the state from a single base, which makes range, onboard water capacity, and off-grid power the specifications that decide how many sites a unit can serve before it has to return.
Tennessee licensing, compliance & procurement
Every mobile clinic program should confirm requirements with the relevant Tennessee agencies before launch — here is where to start:
- Tennessee Department of Health (TDH) — Oversees health facility licensing and community health programs - confirm requirements for your mobile clinic with TDH before launch.
- Tennessee Board of Dentistry — Mobile dental programs should verify permit and supervision requirements with the Board of Dentistry before launch.
- TennCare (Tennessee Medicaid) — Providers planning to bill Medicaid for mobile clinic services must be enrolled through TennCare.
- Tennessee Dept. of Revenue - Vehicle Services — Specialty vehicles are titled and registered through the Dept. of Revenue; TESCO's units are engineered to stay under CDL weight thresholds.

FAQ
How much does a mobile medical clinic cost in Tennessee?
Pricing depends on vehicle size, floor plan, and equipment. Each unit is built to your specification, and leasing options are available. Schedule a free consultation for a quote.
Does Tennessee require a special license to operate a mobile clinic?
Licensing depends on the services you provide. The Tennessee Department of Health oversees health facility licensing, and dental programs coordinate with the Tennessee Board of Dentistry. TESCO vehicles are built under CDL weight requirements, so a commercial driver's license is not required to drive them.
How many sites can one mobile clinic cover in Tennessee?
That depends on onboard water capacity, waste tank size, and power. Programs covering long routes between rural sites usually specify larger tanks and battery/inverter systems so the unit can run a full day without shore power or a dump station.
Can TESCO deliver anywhere in Tennessee?
Yes - from the Tri-Cities and Knoxville to Nashville, Chattanooga, and Memphis. TESCO builds in Oregon, Ohio and delivers statewide, with most new builds completed in about 90 days.
