Company Summary

Urgent care medicine is one of the fastest growing areas of medicine, however, there are few operations that are sufficiently modeled to scale with growth and drive operating performance. UCA has a robust revenue cycle and consulting operation now and we drive perfomrance on behalf of our clients. Our investment opportunity is now to scale this platform to our owned urgent care operations.
