Since 2015, <a href="https://www.emediatecure.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Emediate Cure Quick Care</a> has been focused on offering personalized, community-oriented and affordable healthcare to patients in the Chicagoland area. Now, the business is looking to expand into Indiana, offering franchise opportunities for urgent care centers in the Hoosier State.&nbsp;According to the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/emergency-department.htm?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</a>, about 130 million people go to the ER every year. However, in communities that had access to walk-in urgent care centers, ER visits were <a href="https://www.ucaoa.org/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=Q4TP7cypW94%3D&amp%3Bportalid=80&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">reduced by 30%</a>. And the patients opting for urgent care over the ER could see thousands of dollars in <a href="https://www.debt.org/medical/emergency-room-urgent-care-costs/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">savings</a>. The typical amount spent at urgent care centers in the U.S. is about $100 to $150 per visit, but that number can be as high as $1,400 at the ER.&nbsp;“There’s a bigger picture in healthcare that is getting lost,” said Emediate co-founder <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/april-kubinski-404242101/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">April Kubinski</a>. “Patients are being quickly rushed through appointments and providers aren’t taking the time to dig in and have the discussions that are so integral to providing well-rounded healthcare. We are focused on providing personalized healthcare that is accessible to everyone, and we’re thrilled to start expanding the Emediate Cure footprint into Indiana and beyond.”&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Emediate Cure currently operates two locations in Illinois: one in Shorewood and one in Joliet. Now, as the emerging brand begins to break into franchising, the team is targeting potential owners within major cities including Lafayette and Indianapolis to launch the brand’s first franchised locations.&nbsp;&nbsp;Indiana ranks <a href="https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicator/emergency-room-visits-by-ownership/?currentTimeframe=0&amp%3BsortModel=%7B%22colId%22%3A%22Total%22%2C%22sort%22%3A%22desc%22%7D&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">12th in the country in ER visits</a> per 1,000 people, and it has the 21st-highest poverty rate of all 50 states. These factors, combined with the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, make Indiana a prime territory for the accessible care that Emediate Cure offers.&nbsp;“In today’s climate, the demand for healthcare services has never been greater and yet, a large portion of the population is unable to receive proper care because of cost. We are looking to fill that gap with Emediate Cure franchise opportunities and simultaneously bring back the emphasis on patient/provider relationships,” said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-vertin-555a8a12b/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=emediate-cure-selects-indiana-as-first-market-for-franchise-development-2718007" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Amy Vertin</a>, Emediate Cure managing partner.&nbsp;As part of the emphasis on approachable healthcare, Emediate Cure Quick Care urgent care centers are open beyond typical doctor’s office hours and both locations strive to see walk-in patients in under an hour. What’s more, Emediate Cure healthcare providers are members of the community they work in, providing a sense of familiarity that comes with a locally-owned business.&nbsp;According to Vertin and Kubinski, the time has never been better to begin looking for prospects across Indiana to replicate the resounding success that Emediate Cure has seen in Illinois. Currently, the brand hopes to sign two new franchise owners by the end of the year and begin opening Emediate Cure’s first franchise locations in 2022.The estimated initial investment to purchase an Emediate Cure Quick Care franchise ranges from $370,000 to $581800, including a $35,000 franchise fee.
