Datapoint: Blue Cross NC Closes on Urgent Care Deal

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina last week completed its deal to purchase all North Carolina locations of FastMed, a chain of urgent care clinics that also offer primary care, telehealth and preventive care, for an undisclosed sum. The deal includes 55 FastMed locations. “With approximately half of FastMed’s clinics located in rural areas of our state with limited access to health care resources, I believe this is a vital investment in North Carolina,” Tunde Sotunde, Blue Cross NC’s CEO, said in a statement. The Blues affiliate is the largest insurer in its home state, serving 2,343,259 members.
