ZoomCare Brings On-Demand Emergency Care to the Lake Oswego-Tualatin-Tigard Area with Opening of Super Clinic near Bridgeport Village Shopping Center

PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ZoomCare, the primary care innovator and creator of on-demand healthcare, today announced the imminent opening of a new ZoomCare Super clinic near the Bridgeport Village shopping center, off of Interstate 5 and convenient to Tualatin, Lake Oswego and Tigard.

‍

ZoomCare Super fills the growing gap between an urgent care clinic and the emergency room (ER), providing on-demand emergency care for ¼ the cost of a typical ER visit. The new location will open at 17815 SW 65th Avenue in Lake Oswego on February 16, 2021.

‍

ZoomCare Super offers on-demand scheduling for severe illnesses and accidents that require emergency attention, but don't require the ER, such as broken bones, low-risk chest pain, abdominal pain, concussions, fevers, and kidney stones. With diagnosis and treatment by board-certified emergency physicians and in-clinic X-ray, CT scans, and ultrasound services, ZoomCare Super can treat 80 percent of the reasons adults and kids go to the ER at ¼  of the cost of a typical ER. The average total time spent at ZoomCare Super is about an hour — which is often how long patients spend just waiting to be seen at a hospital ER.

‍

ZoomCare Super offers:

‍

• Minimal wait time compared to an average hospital emergency room
• Board-certified emergency physicians who can treat 80 percent of the reasons adults and kids go to the ER
• In-clinic x-rays, CT scans, ultrasound services, as well as on-site labs, IV fluids, and pain-relieving medications
• Visits at ¼ the cost of a typical ER visit—patients won't walk away with a $600 bill for an over-the-counter pain reliever they could buy for $7 at a grocery store
• In-network billing through most insurance plans. Patients receive an up-front quote so they know what to expect. For uninsured patients, a Super visit is $599, with imaging included. ZoomCare does not currently accept federal or state-sponsored insurance plans
• Coordination with hospital emergency departments for patients requiring hospital admission in the event that their conditions are outside ZoomCare Super's scope of care
• ‍

Starting on February 16, 2021, Portland metro residents can book ZoomCare Super appointments online or through ZoomCare's Android or iOS apps.

‍

ZoomCare Super near Bridgeport Village will debut the company's refreshed branding, which will be unveiled this spring.

‍

ZoomCare Super is not a hospital Emergency Department. It does not accept ambulance patients. People who are experiencing life-threatening or limb-threatening emergencies should go to the closest Emergency Department or call 911.
