Advanced Urgent Care

Ohio State Advanced Urgent Care provides walk-in care for urgent, non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries seven days a week. In addition, less urgent conditions can also be treated. The advanced level of care and diagnostics, supervised by emergency medicine physicians, gives you the expertise of the emergency department (ED) but with shorter wait times and at a lower cost than the ED. Conditions treated include broken bones, sprains, burns, cuts requiring stitches, painful urination, and cold and flu symptoms and infections. Hours and ages treated vary by location. A specialist copay will be collected at time of visit and coinsurance may be applicable if testing is required. Plan provisions apply.
