U.S. Urgent Care Centers Market Size

U.S. Urgent Care Centers Market size was valued at around USD 75.1 billion in 2023 and is expected to exhibit growth at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2024 to 2032. High market growth can be attributed to the increased patient demand for convenient and accessible care, rising healthcare costs, growing aging population, and expansion of health insurance coverage, among other contributing factors.

 

Moreover, the aging population in the U.S. is increasing, leading to a higher demand for medical services. Older adults often require immediate care for acute conditions and minor injuries. For instance, according to the data published in 2024 by Population Reference Bureau (PRB), the number of Americans aged 65 and older is anticipated to grow from 58 million in 2022 to 82 million in 2050. Thus, urgent care centers provide a convenient solution for this demographic, offering timely care without the need for an appointment.

 

Furthermore, as healthcare costs continue to rise in the U.S., patients are seeking more affordable care options. Urgent care centers offer a cost-effective alternative to emergency rooms (ERs) for non-life-threatening conditions, providing high-quality care at a fraction of the cost. This cost advantage drives patients to choose urgent care centers over traditional ER visits.

 

Urgent care centers are a medical facility that provide immediate, non-emergency care for illnesses and injuries that require prompt attention but are not severe enough to warrant a visit to an emergency room. Services commonly include treatment for minor fractures, infections, cuts, sprains, and other acute conditions.
