In Tennessee, Covenant Health Urgent Care has acquired 3 independently operated Well-Key Urgent Care centers in the state, bringing the Covenant Health portfolio to a total of 6 urgent cares. This month, the 10-hospital nonprofit also opened a new urgent care rooftop as part of its planned expansion. The organization is one of 6 health system partners of Urgent Care Group. Well-Key was founded by 2 physicians in 2010 and offers urgent care services to adults and children 6 months and older.
The landscape: About 40% of urgent cares are affiliated with hospital systems, and more than 80% of urgent care operators have multiple rooftops in their portfolios. Look closer at the landscape from the JUCM archive: Size and Ownership of U.S. Urgent Care Centers
