About This Location
CareWell Urgent Care Cambridge is part of CareWell Urgent Care — a New England-focused urgent care chain with 17+ locations across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Founded in 2012 by physicians frustrated with traditional urgent care wait times, CareWell built its model around a shorter-wait promise (typical in-office time under 30 minutes), on-site digital X-ray and CLIA-waived labs, comprehensive COVID/flu/strep/UTI testing with rapid on-site results, IV fluid administration for dehydration, laceration repair with sutures, splinting for sprains and minor fractures, DOT and school/sports physicals, and standard adult/pediatric vaccinations. All CareWell locations share a common Epic-based EMR and online check-in system ("Save My Spot") that lets patients reserve a time slot from home. CareWell is in-network with most major Massachusetts/RI/CT insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts Health Plan, Aetna, Cigna, and UnitedHealthcare.
