Walk in care
No more walk in clinic at Laconia Clinic? I remember one there (but quite a few years ago, will admit). Used it for sinus infections and the like--that I needed care for that day-- my insurance did pay, too. Of course, "that was then; this is now"!
We have several of those "doc in the box" places that AW refers to down here. Now on Medicare and a supplement; and I have gone there a couple of times on a Sunday AM for minor stuff that I need looking at right then. My insurance has paid, too. We have a regular physician, but Sunday AM is not a time you'll get to contact him. This option beats the ER, for sure, as long as it isn't an actual emergency. I do not know how expensive it is without any insurance...would think not as bad as an ER, but that's a guess. I don't remember the exact amount I was charged, but didn't think it way out of line.
