Urgent Care

Medical Center

The first Urgent Care Centers in the United States opened their doors in the early 1970s. Urgent care centers are notably more popular amongst the younger generations due to the quickness of paperwork and medical attention. Currently, there are approximately 10,000 Urgent Care Centers across the United States and that number is growing on average of about 5 percent each year. Over half of these Urgent Care Centers are physician owned and operated.

About Urgent Care Centers

An Urgent Care Center is a facility dedicated to providing medical care in a setting outside of a hospital emergency room. This medical care is typically on an unscheduled, walk-in basis and is primarily used to treat patients who have an illness or injury that is not serious enough to necessitate an emergency room visit but needs immediate attention.

The benefit to Urgent Care Medical Centers is their availability to patient care when your doctor is not, without the hassle of an emergency room visit. This makes their popularity extremely high. Many individuals prefer a visit to the urgent care than the traditional emergency room for this exact reason.

In 2009, the Urgent Care Association of America developed criteria for urgent care centers to abide by. They must now carry the “Certified Urgent Care” designation defining their scope of service, hours of operations and staffing requirement, which must be made available to the public. For more information, please visit the official UCAoA website.
