Employee Urgent Care

For employees and their dependents over the age of 18 – Appointments are required

The UK Health Plan Urgent Care Clinic is an on-site clinic for UK employees and their dependents over age 18 who participate in one of the UK health plans (UK-HMO, UK-PPO, UK-EPO and UK-RHP). 

The UK Health Plan Urgent Care Clinic is here to help you when you have an immediate problem and are unable to see your regular primary care provider. 

If you are not a UK student or employee, you can visit the UK Acute Care Clinic at Turfland or UK HealthCare Fountain Court Acute Care without an appointment to treat injuries or illnesses that aren't life-threatening.
