Apr 13 2024University of Michigan When today's older adults were growing up, urgent care centers and clinics inside retail stores didn't exist. But most of them have now embraced these non-traditional sites for getting medical care, a new national poll finds.
Urgent care clinics were the most common alternative source of care, with 47% of adults age 50-80 visiting one at least once, and 23% going more than once, in the past two years. And 75% of those who have gone to such a site recently say they're likely to go again in the next two years. The poll is based at the U-M Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation and supported by AARP and Michigan Medicine, U-M's academic medical center. Two members of AARP's Public Policy Institute worked with the poll team on the poll questions and report.
