Emergency or Urgency? Save on Healthcare Costs When You Know the Difference

When your child isn’t feeling well, everything can seem like an emergency, but rushing off to an emergency room may not be your best bet: you’ll likely face long wait times as more pressing emergencies are treated before your child, and you’re certainly going to pay more for the same level of care. According to Consumer Reports, a trip to the ER typically costs three times as much as treatment at an urgent care facility like Pediatric Urgent Care of Northern Colorado.
