Urgent Care Centers (UCCs) have been operating in the U.S. since the 1980’s. Currently, in the United States, the number of urgent care centers range from 4,000 to 9,000 (based on level of adherence to criteria developed by the Urgent Care Association of America) and an estimated 700-800 facilities providing walk-in urgent care medical services open each year. The industry is growing quickly based on a number of factors discussed later (see below chart for center and revenue growth) Urgent Care industry is estimated at ~$13B and expected to grow to ~$18B by 2017.

As evidenced by the below tables and competition tables on the following pages, the large majority of urgent care providers have one center. Urgent care centers and chains are generally owned by physicians, groups of physicians, hospitals and corporations The number of operators with more than 10 centers is very low – along with the numerous industry tailwinds, this is a key driver in the large valuations scenarios in the marketplace for urgent care acquisitions.

In addition, a 2009 study by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) placed the number of individuals “lacking access to primary care” at 60 million, an increase of over 4 million from 2007 levels. For Americans with a regular physician: 57% report having access to same or next-day appointments with that physician 63% report difficulty of getting access to care on nights, weekend or holidays without going to an emergency room 20% of adults waited 6 days or more to see a doctor when they were sick in 2010 Primary care physician shortages of ~45,000 by 2020 Growing population of patients with greater share of healthcare needs Increase in patients with insurance due to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) In the coming years, it is believed that physician access will become increasingly more difficult due to: The typical primary care physicians’ role is expected to expand in the future, which will further limit the time available to see scheduled patients. This will likely leave them with 2 options: Expand their own office hours and accept more unscheduled patients Partner with urgent care centers to handle episodic visits in a collaborative and mutually supportive manner Family Practice residencies also face a continued downward spiral of applicants to their training programs. Of the 2,555 open positions in 2009, only 2,329 positions were filled. Additionally, fewer medical school seniors selected Family Medicine as their specialty than in 2009 compared to 2008 (1,083 vs.1,172).

From 1997 to 2007, the number of ED visits increased by 23% while hospitals and emergency rooms decreased by ~9%. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, this trend of increasing ED visits has jumped drastically in recent years as emergency room visits reached over 136 million in 2009, up from 124 million in 2008. This growth represents the largest increase since the government started tracking the figures in the early '90s. Additionally, in 2010 the average waiting time in ED’s had risen to approximately 4 hours. In 2008, persons aged 18-44 years old had the highest overall rate of ED visits (51%), however those aged 65+ had the highest rate per thousands (41%) of ED visits. By 2030, the number of elderly is expected to climb to 72.1 million or 19.3% of the total population. Also by 2030, the number of people aged 85 years and older is expected to increase from 5.5 million to 8.7 million due to increasing life expectancy. This increase in life expectancy will not only increase demand for healthcare services, but also for innovative and more sophisticated methods of providing those services. With fewer emergency rooms and an increase in emergency room visits in addition to the decrease in primary care physicians, the demand for walk-in immediate care should continue to grow.

Key issues to consider around these transactions are fair market value, stark, and anti-kickback concerns. As the below chart indicates, hospitals are acquiring physician practices at a rapid clip and consolidation is expected to intensify with the PPACA. Urgent Care is seen as a way to lower ER utilizations, decrease secondary visits, promote the medical home concept, lock in additional downstream referrals to hospitals while competing with bundled payments and ACOs.
