After-Hours Nurse Triage & Referral Network
A 24/7 nurse-staffed phone/SMS triage service that operates as a white-label backend for independent urgent care centers, clinics, and health systems. Nurses assess patient symptoms in real-time, determine if they need ER, can wait for morning appointment, or can self-manage with guidance. Patients are routed to partner providers (in-network or out-of-network) or given clear instructions, reducing unnecessary ER visits and filling clinic capacity gaps.

Value Proposition
Urgent care centers get 24/7 revenue-generating triage without hiring night staff or building infrastructure. They own the patient relationship, reduce liability from missed diagnoses (nurses follow evidence-based protocols), and capture patients who would otherwise go to ER. Patients get immediate assessment instead of 4-8 hour ER waits. Reimbursement: clinics bill insurance for nurse triage (CPT 98966-98968); uninsured patients pay $25-40 per call.
Target Audience
Independent urgent care centers, small multi-location clinic networks, and regional health systems in mid-sized markets (population 500k-2M) without 24/7 staffing budgets

People can't access urgent medical care outside traditional business hours without long ER wait timesPatients need immediate medical attention for non-emergency issues (minor injuries, infections, prescriptions) but face 4-8 hour emergency room waits or must wait days for doctor appointments. Current solutions like traditional urgent care centers have limited hours, and ER visits are expensive and time-consuming for minor problems. Virtual care platforms are filling this gap by offering 24/7 on-demand access to healthcare providers.
