When to use Emergent Care vs. Primary Care vs. Emergency Department

Emergent Care fixes broken arms

A primary care physician (PCP) is usually your general source for addressing regular health care needs. He or she knows your history and can typically coordinate your in-depth health care services with specialists if or when you need one.

Your PCP is the first one you should contact when you need care. Maybe you can be seen quickly for minor illnesses or injuries. If the symptoms you share when making your appointment warrant immediate care, your provider may suggest you visit an emergent care center or emergency room.

If you believe you or a loved one is experiencing a potentially life-threatening medical issue, you should call 911 or visit the nearest emergency department.
