Difference Trends in the rate of ED visits in for low-acuity Trends conditions, of by growth ED in retail Visits clinic penetration, No growth in retail clinic penetration (N=1,274) Any growth in retail clinic penetration (N=769) Year
24 Difference by Insurance Type? Translation: Average ED had 1237 ED visits for low-acuity conditions among privately insured patients. If a retail clinic opened up close to an ED, 17 fewer ED visits for privately insured over the year.
25 Impact on Costs Retail clinics are cheaper than similar care at physician offices and EDs However, retail clinic visits primarily represent new utilization. Small fraction represent replacement of physician visits Little impact on ED visits Overall costs simple acute care 20% higher
