Unlike some free-standing emergency departments and urgent care offices, Lakeside Physicians Express Care does contract directly with most major insurances so that patients can have their visit submitted for payment. For those who do not have health insurance or have high deductibles, cash payments can be accepted.
Due to the nature of the walk-in location, providers cannot prescribe controlled medications and will not refill medications for chronic illnesses and disease processes at Express Care. If a patient's medical assessment discovers an acute medical issue requiring a higher level of care, patients will be referred to the nearest emergency room or will be transported by ambulance directly to the nearest emergency room.
