Saving money:

Only pay for the level of care you need

Premier ER & Urgent Care is a fully licensed emergency room that offers a unique approach to billing. During urgent care hours (7 a.m.-9 p.m.), we may provide the benefit of courtesy urgent care billing if a medical provider feels urgent care services are appropriate. 7 out of 10 visits are billed as urgent care services.

The final billing classification (emergency room vs. urgent care) is determined based on the resources utilized in your care. This ensures you receive the appropriate level of care while potentially benefiting from reduced costs when urgent care services are sufficient. You will be informed of your billing class before you are discharged from the facility.

Plus, we’re in network with most major insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Scott and White Health Plan, United, and more.

Saving stress:

Full-service emergency room and urgent care under one roof.

Whether you have a potential break, sprain, shortness of breath, or a cut or laceration, our on-site imaging and labs mean Premier ER & Urgent Care is fully equipped to care for you.
