This new 3,500-square-foot center is located at the southeast corner of 95th Street and Antioch Road, in the Valley View Shopping Center. It will provide the same broad array of urgent care and occupational health services found at the CareSpot located at 7935 W. 151st Street, in Overland Park, Kansas; 9490 East State Route 350, in Raytown, Missouri; and 6344 North Chatham Avenue, in Parkville, Missouri. If any CareSpot patients need specialized or follow-up care, the joint venture partnership with HCA Midwest Health system is a helpful option with a large hospital and physician network of support.
"It's important for us to provide a variety of locations that are convenient and close to where people live and work -- that matters to our customers, and our extended hours 7 days a week works well with busy lifestyles," said Paul Dickison, Vice President of Marketing for CareSpot. "Bringing a second location to Overland Park means added convenience as an urgent care option in that community, as well as in the broader region." Additional CareSpot locations are planned to open in the Kansas City area later this month and in January.
Patients also benefit from the convenience of new online and mobile scheduling tools. At CareSpot.com, customers can save a spot in line from home before walking in, or book an appointment for a future time or day from their computers or smartphones. The center also features new check-in tablets for a paperless, streamlined registration when patients arrive.
CareSpot offers healthcare services for non-emergent medical problems that can develop unexpectedly and require immediate attention, filling the gap between primary care physicians and hospital emergency rooms. Most insurance plans are accepted. Patients receive the staffing benefits and expertise of a proven network of CareSpot urgent care centers combined with the option to access the broader resources of a large hospital and physician system if a higher level of care is required. All centers will operate as CareSpot in partnership with HCA Midwest Health System. CareSpot will manage daily business operations.
