Paying cash: what to do
- For a cut that is not bleeding heavily, an urgent care clinic is usually far cheaper than an emergency department.
- Ask whether the price includes the visit fee, supplies and a tetanus shot if you need one.
- Keep the wound clean and dry for the first day and follow the instructions for stitch removal, which may be a separate visit.
