A New Millennium
This is the second emergence of Urgent Care Services as a viable alternative to hospital Emergency Departments and availability of medical care after regular doctor’s office hours. Urgent Care is no longer looked at as the “doc in the box”, but as a quality, trustworthy addition to medical care. The industry has grown from adolescence to adulthood and as medical alternative, it fills a market niche with fully accredited, qualified centers. Entering the market now will properly position the center for long term sustainability.
Business Objectives:
Hospital emergency departments are over taxed with the volume of patients seeking medical care. Many of these patients do not require this high level, high cost of care and could be better served in an alternative setting such as primary care physician’s office or an urgent care center.
• Urgent Care is not meant to compete with Primary Care Physicians Practices.
• Accredited Urgent Care Center strategically located will optimize and relieve pressure from the Hospital ED and the void of Primary Care Services.
• All patients are referred back to their Primary Care Physician at discharge by way of the electronic medical record system which has primary and specialty physicians loaded in and can be added to discharge instructions.
