Coverage Information
Because Sharp works with many different health plans and insurance companies, coverage for services at Sharp urgent care centers may vary depending on the health plan to which you belong.
Prior Authorization
Members of other medical groups or patients not affiliated with a Sharp medical group should consult their health plan member services department or primary care physician for information on where to go for urgent care services. Patients who do not receive prior authorization will be liable for the cost of the services rendered. A copay or deposit may be required.
