PITTSBURGH — UPMC, a world-renowned health care provider and insurer, and GoHealth Urgent Care, one of the fastest growing, customer-centric health care companies, announce the unveiling of 81 UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care locations across Pennsylvania and West Virginia. This new joint venture supports expanded access to life-changing medicine and on-demand care. 
The UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care locations incorporate advances in technology and operations, while providing the same premiere health care that people know and trust from UPMC.
“The UPMC mission is to serve our communities with outstanding patient care, which is why we are pleased to partner with GoHealth,” said Donald M. Yealy, M.D., chief medical officer and chair of emergency medicine at UPMC. “UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care will allow us to serve you even better with convenient, flexible access to high-quality health care when and where you need it.”
The new UPMC-GoHealth partnership creates a digital and physical front door to connect patients to care within the robust network of trusted UPMC physicians and specialists. It also brings more ambulatory services, such as primary care, women’s health, orthopedics and radiology, closer to communities that need them.
UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care centers provide care for non-life-threatening acute conditions, including flu, fever, earaches, insect bites, sprains, simple fractures, cuts requiring stitches and more for patients ages six months and older. The centers will accept most major insurance, including UPMC Health Plan, Highmark, Geisinger, Medicare and Medicaid, and provide self-pay options, easing the ability for people to continue receiving care across the network.
Together with its partners, GoHealth transforms on-demand care in the communities it serves through an innovative model, using data-driven operations and cutting-edge technology to deliver unparalleled experiences. By coupling credentialed UPMC clinicians with proprietary mobile-first check-in and registration tools, UPMC-GoHealth ensures the right services are available in the right places so people can get the care they need quickly and easily.
“Today’s health care consumers expect frictionless, high-quality health care that fits their lives – care that is convenient, personal and connected,” said Todd Latz, chief executive officer of GoHealth. “By combining our on-demand care, operational expertise and experience, both in-center and virtually, with the long tradition of UPMC clinical excellence and deep understanding of the local health care landscape, we will make easy access to high-quality care a reality for many more people.”
In Pennsylvania, the UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care network incorporates former MedExpress, UPMC Urgent Care and UPMC Express Care locations. In West Virginia, all former MedExpress locations are now UPMC-GoHealth Urgent Care centers.
