Pediatric Urgent Care FAQs

  • How much does a pediatric urgent care visit cost in Millbourne?

    Depending on the location of a clinic, urgent care might cost anywhere from $75 to $150. Of course, this only applies to patients who pay cash. However, the quality and standards of healthcare are consistent across the board. Most institutions, however, will charge between $100 and $125 for treatments that are not covered by insurance. However, keep in mind that this is the starting point for the basic treatments provided by urgent care clinics. Additional services such as medication and vaccine shots, lab testing, and X-rays are not included. The cost of urgent treatment will also be increased by stitches, sprains, and shattered bones. Even patients with insurance will be required to make co-payments rather than having their insurer cover the entire cost. Payments are usually made on a monthly basis.

  • Is insurance accepted at urgent care centers in Millbourne?

    Insurance companies decide whether or not to cover the costs of urgent care. It's possible that a patient's insurance won't pay the expenditures. In that instance, the urgent care facility will only accept cash. In most circumstances, however, insurance companies would cover urgent care, allowing patients to attend a treatment center without spending a lot of money. Even if an insurance policy covers this type of care, an urgent care center may refuse to take it, but this is extremely rare. As a result, it's always a good idea to phone ahead and double-check before visiting a care facility.

  • What are common services of a pediatric urgent care in Millbourne?

    You might be concerned that your child is becoming sick more frequently than usual, but this is not the case. The truth is that children will become ill, particularly after they start school and their immune systems are exposed to the health hazards that present in crowded situations. Colds, flu, strep throat, ear and sinus infections, pink eye, and pneumonia are among diseases that can be treated with a brief trip to a pediatric urgent care clinic near you. In addition to injuries, pediatric urgent care clinics can treat stings and bug bites, allergic reactions, wounds and burns, ingested objects, sprains, and fractured bones.

  • What Is the difference between an urgent care and the emergency room?

    The most significant distinction between a pediatric urgent care center and an emergency room is the patient experience. The average wait time in an emergency room is about two and a half hours. A pediatric urgent care, on the other hand, will treat the youngster in 15-45 minutes. The cost of an urgent care facility vs an emergency department is another significant distinction. Normally, the former will be a fraction of the price of the latter. Patients should go to an emergency room rather than an urgent care clinic if they have a major health emergency. This is due to the fact that urgent care centers are only intended for non-emergent and minor illnesses, as well as small injuries.

  • What is the difference between pediatric urgent care and regular urgent care?

    The primary distinction between a pediatric urgent care center and an emergency room is the patient experience. The average wait time in an emergency room is roughly two hours and fifteen minutes. The patient will, however, receive treatment in 15-45 minutes at a pediatric urgent care center. The cost of an urgent care center vs an emergency department is another significant distinction. The former is usually a fraction of the price of the latter. Patients should, however, go to an emergency room rather than an urgent care clinic in the event of a significant health emergency. This is due to the fact that urgent care clinics are only intended for non-emergent and mild diseases and injuries.

  • What is pediatric urgent care?

    Pediatric urgent care operators typically work in conjunction with conventional pediatricians, the majority of whom are available during regular office hours (e.g. from 9 am - 5 pm Monday to Friday). These medical personnel assist with late-night pediatric crises that might otherwise necessitate a trip to the emergency hospital. Pediatric urgent care centers serve children with both mild and major illnesses. Even when regular pedestrians are closed, they are usually open till midnight and on weekends. Without a question, these children's doctors save parents from unneeded and traumatic journeys to the emergency room.

  • 10 Ways to Keep Your Kids Out of the Urgent Care

    There are numerous methods for keeping youngsters healthy and preventing health problems and emergencies. Simple measures like hand cleaning, sufficient hydration, and adequate sleep can go a long way toward safeguarding children's health. Toddlers can avoid many diseases by eating well-balanced diets, managing stress, obtaining the proper vaccines, and avoiding smokers.

I'm always able to get a convenient appointment at this location without waiting for several days. The people that work there are so polite and go out of their way to be helpful, especially when testing kids. They made our visit so much more pleasurable.

- Verified patient on 11/22

I was uptight going there as I needed to take a Covid test. The nurse that administered the test along with the PA were very professional and did not rush me as I had a few questions that I needed answered. Also, the girl at the desk who checked me in was a very pleasant young girl! Thank you Pediatric Urgent Care

- Verified patient on 8/6

This was a Covid test for my 12 year old granddaughter. She was scared and anxious but they handled her with professional kid gloves!!! Lol!!!!

- Verified patient on 2/27

The only thing I would recommend is a better way to administer the test to kids. My grandson was traumatized by his experience.

- Verified patient on 1/15

My kids needed COVID tests that did not go all the way up their noses. We were able to schedule same-day appointments and were waited on promptly. During the doctor's visit, the doctor was very thorough and friendly. The swab was nostril-only. Only down side is that the results take a couple days.

- Verified patient on 9/29

Dr. D. The best!!!!! When we left my sun said “Dad can she be my new pediatrician”. Insert mind blown emoji here!

- Verified patient on 10/8

First visit to pediatric urgent care. Very clean and staff was friendly and welcoming which helped keep my toddler calm. The only downside was the hour wait. I will check in online ahead the next time to avoid the wait.

- Verified patient on 8/21

Wow! The people there make me want to come back for another swab (kidding!). But, seriously, their “bedside” manner was top notch. So friendly and upbeat! Also, on top of organizing everyone, kept it clean (sprayed outside ground after someone sneezed). I thoroughly appreciate how kind this group was. Thank you for making this such an easy and enjoyable process.

- Verified patient on 1/14

I went there with my family, 3 kids, my wife and I. The nurses were very kind and patient, especially with the kids. They made the whole thing seem easy ...much appreciated

The gentleman instructing me and my kids on the administration of the test was really really wonderful. Kind, caring, helpful. Many good feelings about the experience because of him.

- Verified patient on 1/1

Everyone was really friendly. The office was really clean. The wait time was really short, and it was so convenient to book an appointment the same day. I would highly recommend PM pediatrics! The nurse and doctor both had great bedside manner.

The woman who helped me was amazing! I had to have all 3 of my kids tested and she was so good with them, and made me feel very comfortable. Highly recommend!

- Verified patient on 3/23

It was so easy! We needed to be tested because of travel. The staff was very friendly and were so good with the kids!

- Verified patient on 1/26

I took my son in on Labor Day complaining his ears hurt him. The staff and doctor was so friendly. The receptionist gave my son a football, the nurse heard him ask if he would get pretzels (he gets them at his pediatrician) so she brought him in chips. The doctor after doing his exam and leaving to right his report came back in the room when he heard my son crying to make sure he was ok. I would highly recommend this location

- Verified patient on 9/6

I had to have my 5yr old and 4yr old tested today and the girl who administered the test was great with the both of them. She helped make a test that kids dont want into a easy experience.

Pediatric Urgent Care in Millbourne, PA

These days, convenience is key, especially for parents with young children. Who wants to wait several weeks to see their pediatrician or primary care physician in a world where 'next day shipping' is being beaten by 'same day shipping?' Walk-in clinics are divided into a number of categories, including urgent care, pediatric urgent care, retail clinics, and others. These convenient care facilities provide same-day access to qualified pediatric providers who can diagnose and treat a wide range of minor injuries and illnesses in children aged 6 to 18. You've come to the perfect site if you've wondered, "Where can I find a walk-in clinic near me?"

When your children require urgent treatment, the last thing you want to do is travel to a nearby urgent care center only to find it closed or overcrowded with adult patients, making it unsuitable for your children. Such a pointless waste of time. Instead, you should look for a pediatric urgent care center that is open right now. It's sometimes more crucial that the place is "open now" than how close it is, or even whether it has excellent patient feedback. It's possible that all you want is a speedy diagnosis and medication so you can get on with your life. Filter this list of pediatric urgent care centers that are currently open based on your area. The most relevant, closest, and highest rated items appear first.

Pediatric Urgent Care Guide (for Parents)

Solv discovered that patients were waiting an average of 24 days for appointments with their primary care provider in a recent survey done with the Urgent Care Association. Consumers want more in today's environment of immediate gratification. They want it now. If you wish to watch a movie, you can either download it or stream it right away. You can pick up your phone and have groceries delivered to you within an hour if you need them. If you require restaurant reservations, simply locate one that has openings, book online, and stroll in minutes later to sit down. Healthcare should be no exception.

As a result, pediatric urgent care has grown at a quicker rate than any other type of healthcare in the United States. It's also why "urgent care" is searched for more than 5 times more than "primary care" or "family doctor" combined by healthcare consumers. These customers are extremely actionable, searching for "urgent care near me" with high intent. When people are sick or injured, they want same-day access to great healthcare providers - after hours, on weekends, and on holidays - without the cost and inconvenience of going to the emergency room.

Urgent care clinics are useful for detecting and treating non-emergent healthcare requirements such as the flu, sinus infections, and strep throat, as well as injuries such as bone fractures and sprains, cuts, scrapes, and burns. In addition, urgent care clinics are increasingly delivering preventative care services such as annual physicals and well visits, flu shots, and other immunizations and vaccines, assuming the role of primary care physician for the tens of millions of people who don't have one.

There are dedicated pediatric urgent care clinics for children between the ages of one and eighteen, which are normally available after hours for patients between the ages of one and eighteen.

Pediatric Urgent Care Services & Pricing

Consumers seeking treatment for minor illnesses and injuries will find urgent care clinics, which are part of the walk-in clinic healthcare category, to be a helpful option. Annual and school physicals, flu shots and immunizations, treatment for illnesses such as colds, flu stomach aches, sinus and ear infections, and more are frequently offered at an urgent care center. You can also be treated for injuries like burns, bites, sprains, and breaks, which you might think to go to the emergency department rather than urgent care, but you'll have a shorter wait and a lower fee at urgent care. Without insurance, you should budget between $100 to 140 for your appointment, including the cost of transportation.

Insurance & Payments

Almost every urgent care center accepts commercial insurance, and many (if not all) accept Medicare. As a result, if you have insurance coverage, the financial experience will be comparable to seeing a specialist, where you will be charged a co-pay, normally $35-50, at the time of the visit. Any further lab work, x-rays, or other testing will be billed to your insurance first, with any supplemental amount owed being invoiced to you later. If you don't have insurance, you'll have to pay a visit charge of $100-140 at the time of your appointment. This costs between 25 and 50 percent more than your primary care practitioner if you're considering a telehealth or video visit, but the convenience is usually well worth the extra money. 

Urgent Care Hours & Wait Times

Even within the same group or brand, separate urgent care centers may have varying hours. While they're supposed to be convenient when your main care physician isn't available, that's subjective and highly varied. A standard formula, on the other hand, is that an urgent care is open 6 to 7 days a week, typically from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., this might change to practically any 8-12 hour period. Some clinics, comparable to emergency rooms, are even open 24 hours a day. In terms of wait time, most patients report waiting between 15 and 45 minutes on average, though this can vary. It's usually preferable to locate a nearby urgent care facility.
