Urgent care

Optum Care Network provides access to urgent care centers and its very own urgent care center

Urgent care

There’s never a convenient time to get sick. That’s why Optum Care Network offers you a choice of urgent care centers for when you need care outside of your doctor’s normal office hours — such as in the evenings or on weekends. These convenient health clinics will typically provide care for you more quickly, since hospital emergency rooms treat people based on the severity of the illness, not the time of arrival.

Urgent care hours are normally Monday–Friday, 6–9 p.m., with weekend availability. Please call first to verify the times and locations of these centers. To get service, all you need to do is show your insurance card. The copay is usually the same as your doctor’s office visit copay amount — which is usually considerably less than that of a more costly emergency room visit.

If you have a situation that’s urgent but not life-threatening, visit any of the centers listed below.
