IU Health Urgent Care - Lafayette

Urgent care is an excellent option if you are experiencing a medical condition that is not life-threatening. Examples that are not life-threatening include:

• Abdominal pain or stomachaches
• Allergic reactions
• Common cold
• Cuts, scrapes, or bites
• Earaches
• Headaches
• Fractures; sprains or strains
• Strep and sore throat
• Sexually transmitted disease testing
• Sports physicals
• Upper respiratory infections
• Urinary tract infections

Urgent care facilities are designed to treat medical conditions that are not life-threatening. Emergency rooms are designed to treat medical conditions that are life-threatening or could result in permanent disability.

Our Urgent Care facilities do offer sports and camp physicals. If your school or camp requires a signature from an MD, please contact the Urgent Care to ensure an MD is available. (NOT required for IHSAA physical forms.)

In addition to simply walking in, we do offer a “Save a Spot” option that allows you to save your spot in line and decrease your wait time at the urgent care facility rather than making an appointment.

Our goal is to see patients up until closing time. However, to ensure high-quality care, walk-in patients may be limited based on availability. You can save your spot in line or use our On-Demand Virtual Visits, available 7 days a week from 8 am to 8 pm.

Urgent care is designed to supplement your primary care. Your primary care physician plays a valuable role in managing your long-term health care, while urgent care is designed to take care of your immediate and urgent medical needs.

We see any patients 3 months and older.

For insured patients, we collect your deductible and/or your co-pay at the time of service, and then bill your insurer for you. After your insurer sends an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) to us, IU Health Urgent Care will bill you for any balance still due.
