Patient care connections

Need a doctor? We can help you find one.

When you're unwell and not sure where to turn, we help connect you with an independent, licensed healthcare provider in our network. There is no fee to request a connection; any fees for care are set by the provider.

Urgent Care Online is a referral service operated by Optimal Health Network LLC. We are not a medical provider; all care is delivered by independent providers who are responsible for their own licensure. A connection is not guaranteed and availability varies by state. For adults 18+ in the United States.

How it works

How a connection works.

You tell us a little about what's going on. We look for a provider in our network who may be able to help. Any care is between you and that provider.

01

Tell us what's going on

Share your contact details, your state, and a brief note about your non-emergency concern.

02

We review your request

A member of our team checks whether a provider in our network serves your state and concern. If so, we pass your request to that provider.

03

The provider contacts you

If matched, the provider reaches out directly to discuss scheduling, fees, and how you'll be seen. Those decisions are the provider's, not ours.

04

Your care stays with the provider

Evaluation, treatment, follow-up, and any prescriptions are between you and the provider. Urgent Care Online is not involved in your care.

Our care

Common non-emergency concerns.

Providers in our network may see patients for concerns such as cold and flu symptoms, sinus and ear discomfort, urinary symptoms, rashes and skin concerns, allergies, minor injuries, and prescription questions. Whether a provider can help with your concern, and how you're seen, is the provider's decision.

A note on care: we're a referral service, not a medical provider. Your care is delivered by the independently licensed provider we connect you with, based on their own professional judgment.

Independent physicians and providers

Where available, we help connect you with an independently licensed physician or other healthcare provider who may be able to evaluate your concern.

Provider judgment

Providers in our network are independent, are responsible for their own licensure, and make all medical decisions based on their own professional judgment.

Prescriptions, if appropriate

Only a provider can decide whether a prescription is appropriate. If one is issued, the provider sends it to a pharmacy. Urgent Care Online is not a pharmacy and does not guarantee any prescription.

Hours vary

Some providers may offer appointments outside typical office hours. Availability depends on the provider and your state and is not guaranteed.

Our standards

What you can expect from us.

Transparent privacy

We tell you exactly what we collect, how we may contact you, and who we share it with. Read our Privacy Policy.

Independent providers

Providers in our network are independent professionals responsible for their own licensure and the care they deliver. We do not provide medical care and do not supervise providers.

Straightforward

We're a referral service, not a medical provider. We don't charge you a referral fee, we disclose that providers and partners may compensate us, and your care decisions stay between you and your provider.
