Without a doubt, the cost of medical care in the United States has skyrocketed over the last few decades. If you walk into an emergency room with an earache or the need for a few stitches, you will most likely walk out with a bill that looks like it could be a phone number. Thankfully, for non-life-threatening injuries and illnesses, urgent care centers are a much more affordable alternative to visiting the emergency room. On a general note, a trip to an urgent care center will cost a quarter of the price for the same trip to an emergency room. A few things that will determine the cost of services provided at an urgent care clinic include: • The nature and severity of the illness • Type of treatment required • Location • Whether or not you have health insurance It is important to note that urgent care costs vary by location. One clinic might charge $75 for an X-ray, while another clinic might charge $175. With this being said, without insurance the average cost of an urgent care visit ranges between $70 and $125. These charges are the base price without any other services added. If you don’t have insurance, don’t worry!
