Urgent Care Centers Market: Introduction
According to the report,
the global urgent care
centers market was valued at US$ 23.5 Bn in 2018 and is projected
to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Urgent care
centers (UCCs) are an important section of the healthcare industry that
provides non-emergency care to the general population. UCCs offer various
services on walk-in on no appointment basis for non-life threatening illnesses
and injuries. Services provided by UCCs include illness, injury, physicals
(school physicals), occupational medicine, vaccinations, diagnostic, screening,
and monitoring. Illness services account for major share of the global urgent
care centers market, followed by the injury segment. These two segments
together account for nearly 65% of the
global market.

the global urgent care centers market in 2018
Advantages of Urgent Care Centers
The UCCs market has
different ownerships, where one or more physicians and hospitals/franchise
owners come together to address the demand for inexpensive and convenient
healthcare. UCCs have witnessed significant developments in the past few years
due to longer waiting hours for appointment in emergency room and other
healthcare providers, issues with same-day access for sick care, and limited
access to after-hours care at hospitals and other primary care providers. A
large number of the UCCs work all the days of the week, and remain open from
8:00 am to 7:00 pm or later on weeknights. A qualified professional, such as
doctor, nurse, or physician assistant, attends the patient within less than 30
minutes from arrival in comparison to approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes on
average ED visit time.
Walk-ins are welcome, and
there is no need to plan an appointment. However, appointments can get a
patient in and out more rapidly. Appointments can be made through online
portal, which also publishes wait time in clinic.
