The convenience of retail clinics is changing the healthcare industry in the U.S., according to an article on the New York Times website.
America seeks out after-hours care or care in a hospital’s emergency room more often any other industrialized nation.
People using the emergency room for primary care is not always about lack of insurance. The emergency room is open when people can go.
A study published in the American Journal of Medical Quality found that patients who had a primary care physician still went to a retail clinic because their doctor were not readily available.
