DUBLIN, Mar. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --Research and Markets

Convenience clinics, also known as retail health clinics, are a quickly growing segment of the U.S. health care marketplace. Retail clinics are typically located in stores, malls and other retail locations, making them convenient for shoppers.
Other characteristics of retail clinics include:
- Low cost services enabled by high throughput and cost containment;
- High transparency of pricing, with rates often prominently displayed;
- Usually staffed by nurses or nurse practitioners;
- Increasing acceptance of payment through insurance as well as by cash, check or credit card;
- Broad purchasing power across many locations.
Convenience clinics by nature are designed to occupy small spaces and provide just basic care. Therefore, they do not use most of the sophisticated medical equipment found in hospitals or specialty centers such as advanced imaging devices. However, retail clinics are becoming relatively large users of point-of-care (POC) tests, clinical chemistry and immunoassay laboratory tests and vaccines.
Retail Clinics 2015 looks at retail clinics' impact and growth of market over the next five years, including:
- Retail Clinic Service Revenues, 2009-2019
- Sales to Retail Clinics by Suppliers, 2009-2019
- Revenues to Retailers from In-Store Clinics, 2009-2019
- Revenues to Retailers from In-Store Clinics, 2009-2019
In the convenience clinic industry, retail outlets provide the facilities in which service providers set up operations. These include mass merchandisers; drug stores; supermarkets; other large stores and locations. While drug stores will continue to represent the majority of all retail clinic locations by 2019, a rising number of clinics will be located at these other facilities as the retail health care concept is embraced by a growing number of stores.
