"Urgent Care" facilities are not emergency rooms or hospitals, they do not have the equipment necessary, few have very little medical tech in them at all with the most advanced things being contactless thermometers and maybe an x-ray. They are little more than offices with private examination rooms.
They are 100% for acute, non-life threatening illnesses and injury.
Whoever is claiming he was denied for insurance is likely confusing what was actually said. Even if they'd had a suitcase full of unmarked non-sequential 20$ bills they'd likely have been able to do anything for him besides refer them to an emergency room/call an ambulance.
This article is garbage, it is 100% trying to get clicks and isn't even remotely actual journalism.
