Urgent Care Center Market Outlook to 2030
Urgent Care Center Market Overview
Increased preference for urgent care services with shorter waiting times, availability in the vicinity, and low costs are encouraging market growth for Urgent Care centers across developed and developing countries. Most healthcare-associated companies are focusing on launching new Urgent Care Centers. Further, concerns about the increased load on hospitals and emergency departments are driving governments to encourage the development of urgent care clinics. Further, insurance companies are also extending support to these clinics, driven by their low-cost advantages.
Further, Urgent Care Centers offer advantages of physician availability during non-working hours, direct walk-in facility without scheduled appointments, ease of access, convenience to use, and others. Low-cost benefits enable their usage in a wide range of services from acute illnesses to vaccination and injuries. As no prior bookings are necessary, the volume of patient visits to the clinics increased, driven by increased flexibility and location proximity to patients.
Strategic alliances between urgent care centers and hospitals are increasingly observed as a win-win strategy for both entities. On the other hand, corporate entities are focusing on expanding into emerging markets.
On the other hand, challenges associated with Urgent Care Center such as intense competition from other health service providers, a dearth of professionals, and increasing initial cost expenditures pose challenges to the market growth.
Urgent Care Center Market Trend - Strategic alliances Between Urgent Care Providers and Hospitals
Hospital-linked urgent care clinics are rapidly expanding worldwide amidst large footfall in emergency rooms. To produce significant cost savings from diverting non-emergency cases to urgent care centers, hospitals can provide improved access to care for patients who require emergency services. Integrated health systems where hospitals are affiliating with urgent care centers as part of their operations are observed.
In addition, reduced waiting time in hospitals and a lower load on physicians will support the trend toward increased affiliation with urgent care centers. As doctors and other medical professionals receive the same training as the professionals in hospitals, patients tend to prefer these clinics. Further, large corporate-owned centers are forming strategic alliances with hospital chains for win-win partnerships and better serving patients.
Urgent Care Center Market Drivers- Low-cost advantages and shorter waiting periods support the market potential
The transformation of the healthcare system worldwide is encouraging the setup of patient-centered centers including urgent care centers. They provide access to urgent care outside the hospital setting and avoid long waiting queues. The shorter waiting times coupled with the reduced financial burden on patients increase interest among patients to opt for urgent care clinics. This presents a huge market potential for physicians to set up their urgent care centers. Private insurance agencies also encourage the market for these clinics.
Amidst intense competitive conditions in established markets, physician-owned clinics are set to grow rapidly in developing countries. People are fast getting accustomed to the potential benefits of urgent care centers. Governments also encourage patient visits to these clinics because they reduce the load on healthcare infrastructure.
Urgent Care Center Market Share Analysis- Immunizations & Vaccination are the highest revenue generators for service providers
The segment remains the largest service offered by urgent care services. In particular, during the COVID-19 pandemic period, vaccination was the main market driver. As most of the hospitals were flooded with patients requiring COVID treatments, vaccination and immunization activity were largely observed in urgent care centers. Governments across countries encouraged the role of urgent care centers in handling vaccination during the pandemic period.
Flu shots, tetanus, Hepatitis-B, Pertussis, MMR vaccines, Hepatitis-A, and others are also widely administered in urgent care centers. In particular, independent and physician-owned centers largely focus on these services.
