When you have an unscheduled medical need, it’s important to know where you can go for help in a hurry.  (The ER isn’t your only option!)

Choosing an urgent care center for any non-life-threatening issue can help you avoid needless worry, lower your out-of-pocket costs, and provide shorter wait times. Florida Blue members can save even more when they visit one of our Value Choice Providers for urgent care, like Sanitas and GuideWell Emergency Doctors. Plus, most members have $0 copays for up to two visits.1

Value Choice Provider urgent care centers provide high-quality care for major and minor illnesses including:

  • Asthma and allergic reactions
  • Cold, flu, and fever
  • Strains, sprains, and breaks
  • Infections, burns, and more

Some urgent care locations offer on-site diagnostic services like lab work, X-rays, and ultrasounds. Plus, there are Spanish-speaking team members available at many locations.
