MD Now earns prestigious UCA Accreditation: A commitment to quality
At MD Now urgent care, we are proud to announce that we have earned accreditation from the Urgent Care Association (UCA), a mark of excellence recognized nationwide. This prestigious achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to providing high-quality, patient-centered urgent care services – where and when you need them most.
What UCA Accreditation means
UCA Accreditation is the highest level of distinction for urgent care centers. It recognizes urgent care centers that meet or exceed the UCA’s rigorous standards in important areas such as clinical care and patient safety. The process requires centers to demonstrate a sustained focus on quality, consistency and patient safety at every level of service. Out of thousands of urgent care centers across the nation, less than 20% of the nation's urgent care centers have received this achievement.
Why UCA Accreditation matters to you
For patients and families, UCA Accreditation offers something you can’t always see when you walk into a healthcare facility: an assurance of quality care, safe practices and efficient operations. It’s a sign that behind every visit — whether you’re coming in for a minor injury, a seasonal illness or an X-ray — we practice an ongoing commitment to your care.
When you walk into an MD Now clinic, you can feel confident knowing your care meets the highest national standards:
- Top-quality care, every visit – UCA Accreditation recognizes urgent care centers that consistently deliver safe, effective and high-quality care.
- Backed by rigorous standards – Our clinics undergo thorough evaluations, including virtual and in-person reviews, to meet strict industry benchmarks.
- A commitment to your safety – UCA Accreditation affirms our focus on patient safety, from how we deliver care to how we maintain clean, secure environments.
- A growing network, one mission – Through our affiliation with HCA Healthcare, you have access to a broad network of hospitals, specialists and providers if you need additional care.
You deserve care that’s not only fast and convenient—but also trusted, quality and centered around you. Achieving that standard is the result of a coordinated effort across our entire team.
A team effort
From our team of healthcare providers to our administrative and support teams, everyone plays a critical role in maintaining the standards that accreditation requires.
Earning UCA Accreditation is not a one-time achievement. It signifies an ongoing promise: to continue enhancing the level of care we deliver, to stay ahead of industry best practices and to ensure that every patient experience meets the highest expectations. Accreditation must be maintained through regular re-evaluations and improvements, and MD Now is dedicated to doing just that.

At MD Now, our mission extends beyond treating symptoms. We are here to build healthier communities by offering easy access to safe, efficient and compassionate healthcare. Some examples of our commitment to you include:
