Urgent Care Centers in the US

The industry is a vital component of the healthcare system. Urgent care centers provide a wide range of services like low-level trauma treatment, occupational medicine, preventive health, school-related physicals and others, thereby securing a wide range of patients. Over the past five years, a shortage of primary care physicians, coupled with rising costs and wait times at emergency rooms, stimulated demand for urgent care centers to provide noncritical care. Many individuals have opted to visit urgent care centers that offer convenient care on a walk-in and after-hours basis. Over the past five years, urgent care centers' revenue has grown at a CAGR of 7.1% to $52.7 billion, including an increase of 4.0% in 2023 alone. Profit has also increased, driven partly by the effects of COVID-19.
