Insurance & Costs
Most major insurance plans accepted.
MUSC Health Emergency and Urgent Care is the health care system of the Medical University of South Carolina. We have a long history of earning the trust of South Carolinians. You can count on us for safe, high-quality patient care – as well as fair billing.
Keeping costs low for you, our most important asset
We’re dedicated to building partnerships that help make care more accessible and affordable for families from the foothills to the coast. One step toward fulfilling that commitment is through our newest innovative care model: MUSC Health Emergency and Urgent Care.
MUSC Health Emergency and Urgent Care locations are in-network with most major insurance plans. That allows us to provide you with the highest quality care at the lowest possible cost. Our fair billing ensures you’ll only pay urgent care fees if you receive services in our urgent care center (versus higher Emergency Department fees).
