Pittsburgh-based UPMC and national urgent care provider GoHealth Urgent Care have launched 81 UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care centers across Pennsylvania and West Virginia, expanding access to on-demand care through a new joint venture.
The centers — many formerly MedExpress, UPMC Urgent Care and UPMC Express Care sites — treat nonemergency conditions for patients 6 months and older, including flu, sprains and minor injuries. Most major insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, are accepted, according to a July 30 news release by UPMC.
The partnership combines UPMC’s clinical network with GoHealth’s tech-enabled care model, offering easier access to UPMC specialists and additional services such as primary care, women’s health and radiology in underserved areas.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
