Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use FMA same-day care, urgent care, or the emergency room?

Choose FMA same-day care for new or worsening, non-life-threatening concerns when an appointment is available. Urgent care is an option for prompt, non-emergency care when FMA is unavailable. Use the emergency room for possible emergencies, and call 911 for life-threatening symptoms such as chest pain or pressure, severe trouble breathing, signs of stroke, loss of consciousness, or bleeding that will not stop. Do not delay emergency care.

How do I choose same-day care vs. my regular PCP visit?

Use same-day care for a new or worsening, non-life-threatening concern that should not wait for your next routine appointment. Use a regular PCP visit for preventive care, ongoing concerns, and long-term condition management.

What happens during a same-day visit?

A provider reviews your symptoms and medical history, performs an appropriate exam, and discusses testing, treatment, and follow-up based on your needs.
