Why are urgent cares so popular?


Urgent care is so popular because it fills a much-needed space in the chain of medical supply. Urgent cares typically operate with extended hours and accept patients on a walk-in basis, which makes them convenient options for those in need of medical care but cannot see their primary care provider or need to seek medical attention outside of typical office hours but do not need emergency medical attention.

Additionally, urgent cares are much more affordable than a trip to the emergency room, particularly for minor to moderate health concerns or medical situations. And urgent care is typically covered by insurance, making it a very affordable option for those who are in need of the services which urgent care offers.

Urgent care centers are also a much quicker option for minor or moderate health concerns or medical situations than an emergency room visit; you will usually be seen in urgent care within an hour of walking into a center, regardless of if you have an appointment or not. But if you would like to be seen quicker, it is recommended that you call ahead to your local urgent care and book an appointment first.

What qualifies for urgent care?


If you require urgent, unexpected health concerns that are not life-threatening but require urgent medical treatment, then you should visit an urgent care center. Urgent care are set up to treat a variety of minor to moderate health concerns that you may experience that does not necessarily require a trip to the emergency room but still require medical care or assistance.

Some of the most common conditions which are treated by urgent care include broken bones, sprains, cuts, asthma, dehydration, pain, and infections. If you have any questions about what your local urgent care does or does not treat, you should call ahead and ask about their services and what conditions they are set up to treat. If it is a life-threatening situation or an emergency, call 911 or visit your nearest emergency room immediately.

Can urgent care give you a referral?


It is possible for you to receive a referral to see a specialist from an urgent care center, but that may not always be the case. Urgent care does not always provide referrals as they are not the best option for treating chronic conditions but may provide if it is an urgent medical situation. If you have any questions about referrals and whether your local urgent care provides them, you should call ahead to make certain. For those urgent care centers that do provide referrals, they will typically forward any and all pertinent medical information to the specialist to whom they are referring you. However, it is usually recommended that for continuation of care, you see your primary care physician if you are in need of a referral to a specialist for a medical condition – be it chronic or not – as they are much better versed in your medical history than an urgent care center.
