At Niagara Falls Urgent Care, we generally accept Medicare. However, it’s important for our patients to understand how Medicare coverage applies to urgent care services.

• Medicare Part A primarily covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care. It does not typically apply to urgent care visits.

• Medicare Part B covers outpatient services, including doctor visits and urgent care services. If you have Medicare Part B, Niagara Falls Urgent Care is likely able to accept your coverage for your visit. Please note that standard copayments or coinsurance may apply.

To find an urgent care doctor who accepts Medicare in Niagara Falls, NY, you can follow these steps:
Use the Medicare “Care Compare” Tool:
Go to the official Medicare website at medicare.gov/care-compare.
Select “Doctors & clinicians” or “Providers & Services”.
Enter “Niagara Falls, NY” as the location. You can also specify “urgent care” in the keyword field.
The tool will provide a list of Medicare-approved providers in the area.

Verify with the Provider Directly:
Based on your search results, contact the urgent care center directly. This is the most reliable way to confirm they are in-network for your specific Medicare plan (especially if you have a Medicare Advantage plan).

We always recommend that you contact urgent care directly or check with your Medicare plan before your visit to confirm coverage and to better understand any out-of-pocket costs for urgent care services.
