Happy Holidays… and Open Enrollment Time!
Open enrollment is here — and so are the holidays. Choose your plan before Open Enrollment ends on January 15!
Whether you are busy at work, traveling to see family, or in full festivity mode, there is a lot going on. And unfortunately, you or someone you love may also get sick this time of year.
Consider Melanie, who was gearing up for a special weekend when her daughter came down with a fever. Nothing was helping to bring her temperature down, so at 8:30 p.m. on a Friday, the duo headed to urgent care. Melanie knew a trip to the ER would run about $1,000—and that it could take hours to see a doctor. Urgent care would be a quicker and less expensive option.
Let’s take a look at the typical costs of an urgent care visit for a sick toddler.
| Procedure | National Average Cost |
|---|---|
| After-Hours Urgent Care Visit | $200 |
| Total Out-of-Pocket | $200 |
