The Four Ways the Affordable Care Act Impacts Urgent Care Services
The passing of the Obamacare Act, or the Affordable Care Act, prompted worries about too few medical services being available to meet the rising demand of patients. Urgent care clinics throughout the country have risen to meet this need and are now overwhelmingly benefiting from the influx of insured patients who search out a variety of different medical services. Urgent care provides immediate medical attention to individuals. The services offered at a North Side Spokane urgent care clinic and other facilities like this vary. They are primarily designed to provide immediate attention to patients who suffer from minor illnesses and injuries. They do not, however, address emergency situations like heart attacks, stroke, broken bones, or wounds that need deep suturing.

Urgent Care Centers in an Age of Epidemics and Epidemic Prevention
We live in an age of epidemics –- or at least epidemic preparation. While infectious disease is not new to humanity, the idea that we can prepare and survive pandemics is a new one. Urgent care centers in North Side Spokane and anywhere else are an integral part of these preparations. With anti-epidemic measures in place, people can live healthier lives.
Walk In Clinics Prevent Long Wait Times
In many areas of the Pacific Northwest, hospitals are overwhelmed even without an epidemic. There simply are not enough staff and facilities for the number of people needing care. Even a small outbreak of influenza can upset the delicate balance and create long waits for care. This is where urgent care clinics are so important.
