Abstract

The intersection of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and healthcare efficiency presents a complex landscape where environmental sustainability, economic viability, and public health outcomes converge. While the transition to EVs is often framed as a purely environmental or automotive shift, its implications for healthcare infrastructure and patient access are profound. This paper critically examines how EV adoption in healthcare—particularly in logistics, emergency response, and patient transportation—affects cost structures, service accessibility, and sustainability outcomes. By integrating insights from digital health technologies, artificial intelligence, and evolving consumer expectations, this study highlights both the opportunities and systemic challenges of electrifying healthcare infrastructure in the United States.
