As one string of urgent care clinics teeters on the brink of collapse, another is expanding.
Sterling Urgent Care, an employee-owned multipractice physician group with clinics in Idaho, Utah and Wyoming, opened four Treasure Valley locations in late January, with a fifth slated for later this spring. The clinics are Sterling’s first in the Boise area.
The four clinics are located in Boise, Garden City, Meridian and Nampa. Sterling’s Boise location is next to Fred Meyer at the corner of West Overland Road and South Five Mile Road.
It offers membership plans for patients who don’t have insurance.
The medical group, based in Idaho Falls, prides itself on an “innovative” approach to health care, according to a news release from the business. Individual memberships cost $60 a month and family memberships, which include up to four people, cost $120 a month.
Sterling says the memberships are geared toward patients who don’t have health insurance, have high deductibles or prefer walk-in care.
