Why choose an urgent care center?
There are several advantages to choosing an urgent care center over a hospital. First of all, let’s start with waiting times. Hospitals serve a huge patient population and – depending on the time of the day – patients may experience long waiting times. Conversely, the patient population of urgent care centers is relatively smaller, enabling it to treat patients more quickly.
Secondly, urgent care centers are less expensive than hospitals. Urgent care centers are not only cheaper if you’re paying out of pocket (click here to view the private pay rates), but are most often also cheaper via your health insurance (but of course it will depend on your specific plan).
Last of all, some urgent care centers are now offering online physician appointments, making seeing your physician even easier. Like the sound of your next appointment being from the comfort of your own sofa? Read more about seeing a doctor online in Spring Hill.
