b2 MicroCare—Fast Convenient Care for Minor Ailments—Opens January 29, 2018

Bozeman, MT [January 25, 2018] – We're pleased to share that Bozeman Health is bringing fast, convenient care to Southwest Montana through our first convenience care clinic: b2 MicroCare, located in the Bridger Peaks Town Center at the corner of Oak and 19th. Serving as an additional entry point into Bozeman Health's family of care services, b2 bridges care between our virtual and urgent care services while connecting those without a primary care provider to information and options. This convenience care model is a complement to established urgent care and primary care healthcare services—synergistically meeting demand while providing high quality, affordable care.

b2 MicroCare is staffed by a nurse practitioner and a patient care tech, providing a nimble care experience for patients ages two and older. Appointments at b2 MicroCare are built in 15-minute increments, uniquely created for the patient on the go who needs quick, convenient, quality care for one minor ailment.

b2 MicroCare's user experience is mobile-first, aimed at tech-savvy Millennials, Gen Xers, and Baby Boomers that seek out healthcare solutions via their mobile devices. With this in mind, a streamlined online appointment scheduling and clinic check-in process ensures patients can receive care at a time most convenient for them, in addition to having the option of walking-in for care. By visiting b2MicroCare.com, online appointment scheduling can be done for same-day or next day appointments, and patients can receive text and email reminders when their appointment time is approaching.

Upfront, menu-based pricing for self-pay patients delivers transparency and the ability to know exactly what a visit to b2 MicroCare may cost, even before the patient arrives for their appointment. b2 does accept most major insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid.

The interior of b2 MicroCare is fresh and modern, with a minimalistic entry room, designed to be a calming space for patients to relax after checking-in. Patients are encouraged to enjoy the tea bar, catered to help relieve specific ailments (with a tea just for children and hot chocolate for those who wish to satisfy a sweet tooth) and give a bit of comfort.

We are excited about introducing b2 MicroCare to the Bozeman Health integrated care system to provide additional access point to consumers who need fast, convenient care for the flu, strep throat, earaches, tummy issues, and other minor ailments.

Join us for the grand opening of b2 MicroCare on Tuesday, January 30, 2018 from 4 to 6 p.m. at 1805 West Oak Street, Suite 3, Bozeman.
