Increasing Number of Retail Clinics and Rising Frequency of Visits for Low-Acuity Medical Conditions


Retail clinics have been considered by insurers and policy makers as an alternative way to reduce healthcare spending. Clinic visits cost way less than physician office or emergency department visits. According to a survey conducted by the RAND organization, approximately 58% of retail clinic visits account for low-acuity conditions that represent new utilization.

The use of retail clinics is associated with a decent increment in healthcare spending. Similar researches and studies around the globe have shown that approximately 40% of retail clinic visits are for minor medical issues. This increase in spending from higher use of services outweighs the savings generated when consumers went to less expensive retail clinics instead of an emergency room or a doctor's office.


In the US, where retail clinics are extremely widespread, the first retail clinics opened in Minnesota in 2000. However, as per the RAND study conducted in November 2011, the number of retail clinics increased by a factor of 12 between 2006 and 2010. Retail clinic visits, majorly for low-acuity conditions, have led to an increase in spending and utilization, further fuelling demand growth of the retail clinics market during the forecast period.


Growth of Retail Clinics in Vaccination Delivery


Retail clinics have shown promising growth in vaccination delivery, majorly in the United States. Vaccinations hold a substantial share of the retail clinics business. The trend of vaccination delivery has observed decent growth in the overall market for retail clinics. However, retail clinics could deliver more vaccinations and increase their overall business if the vaccination histories are reviewed and the patients are counselled on the advantages of vaccination during acute care visits.


Retail clinics are considered to be a promising venue both for promoting and administering vaccinations. As most retail clinics are located in popular locations, such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, grocery stores, the advertising and promotion of vaccinations becomes easy.


Increase in Healthcare Expenditure


Globally, the per capita spending on healthcare has been increasing. People’s desire and ability to spend on wellness have led to an incremental shift in healthcare expenditure, which is expected to boost the growth of medical and healthcare industries, and subsequently, medical treatment in the near future. Within a span of 10 years, the global per capita healthcare spending has almost doubled, owing to the increasing awareness regarding the availability of treatment options in the market.


For instance, healthcare expenditure in percentage with GDP grew from 17.2% to 17.3% from 2016 to 2018 in the US. Europe has been registering a consistent increase in healthcare expenditure in regions such as France, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark and Switzerland and had a GDP% healthcare expenditure of 11.7%, 11.3%, 12.9%, 10.6% and 11.5% respectively.
