Ambulatory Services
Ambulatory services are a type of health care in which patients receive medical care for minor illnesses and injuries without being admitted to a hospital. These services are often provided in outpatient centers, such as clinics and doctor's offices. Ambulatory services are important because they allow people to get treatment for minor conditions quickly, conveniently and cost-effectively. Common types of ambulatory services include primary care, radiology, urgent care, physical therapy, lab tests, and specialty services like oncology and cardiology. In addition to providing general medical care, ambulatory services can also provide preventive care and patient education, helping to improve overall health and reduce the risk of serious health problems.
