I was so impressed with my experience receiving a Covid test at CareWell. On Friday, I called to…read moreschedule a test and was able to be seen on Sunday at 3:00. A few hours prior to my appointment, CareWell contacted me by telephone to complete the registration process, reducing the amount of time I needed to spend in the facility. When I arrived, I was grateful to see that CareWell had free parking available. At exactly 3:00 on the dot, I was admitted for my appointment and promptly brought back to an exam room. The attending PA, Jessica Johnston, was so kind and professional. This must be the absolute most stressful time to be a healthcare worker, and I was amazed by her sunny disposition. In the end, I was in and out the door within 3 minutes, and received my results less than an hour later via the CareWell patient portal. Obviously, no one relishes having a Covid test, but my experience here made the whole process relatively painless.

About 2 months later, I received a bill in the amount of $219.46 via email (with no invoice no. or explanation), indicating that that my insurers denied the claim. I looked up the cost for blood pressure monitoring on the Minute Clinic website's posted pricing schedule, & it said 99-139 dollars. When I called to complain, I spoke to customer service twice and a billing dept. person. Neither could explain what I was being charged for or why at that billed price. It sounded like they were trying to scam my insurers with a higher price than advertised, & then billing me this when the claim was denied. Be very wary of this outfit. After calling them 3 times & my insurer once, there's still no explanation or resolution. If they told me the actual or estimated cost as required by Ma statute, I would have gone elsewhere.

I arrived at 9:00 am, happy to see the clear signage on the doors that it's open 7 Days a week 8am - 8pm, as I yanked on the door handle. It didn't budge. So I called the clinic's number where a chipper message announced that they open at 9:00 am on the weekends. I thought maybe they were a bit late in opening so I decided to try and reserve my place on-line. That didn't work either, that service was not available at this location. Finally, I looked at the website carefully and saw that this location was closed on Sundays and Mondays until the end of the month. Ug! Yes, I should have read the website more carefully. But when you're sick and grumpy it's hard to read confusing websites. The phone message could have warned me, the website could have been clearer. Why couldn't someone put a couple of signs on the windows?

How the heck are people supposed to get tested and help reduce the spread of Covid when this place…read morecan't get their sh$t together? I called and spoke with someone who told me that I couldn't make an appointment but could come as a walk in... I asked if there was a long wait and she replied that "there are only 2-3 people in front of you." So I came in as a walk-in just as the two young kids did in front of me... They walked up to the counter, filled out the registration paperwork and were called in while I was still waiting to be called. I expected it to be fast as there was no one waiting outside and those two young guys were the only 2 ahead of me at that point. When I got to the counter, instead of filling out the paperwork as the kids before me had just done, I was told to scan the code and go back to my car to complete the registration. I did so, and then waited... and waited... and waited... well over an hour at this point. When I called and spoke with someone inside they told me that they had stopped taking walk ins for Covid tests and weren't sure when they would begin doing the tests again... I was told to just keep waiting but that there is a possibility that I would get carrried over to tomorrow... Wait, what?? I had been waiting for over an hour already, and they think it's normal or ok to tell someone that they need to wait 4 hours to be told to come back tomorrow? This is efficient testing? This is BS, is what it is... When I called and spoke to someone in the call center and tried to get some idea of the wait time, I was told that there were now 25 people ahead of me.... Ummm..... what?? I explained that I was just inside to see if there were others waiting and was told that there wouldn't be anyone in the lobby waiting... That's funny as the two young guys were inside waiting, the walk-in lady in her gray scrubs was waiting, along with an elderly couple who had just walked in. But I guess my eyes might be lying to me due to Covid, but as I wasn't able to get tested after waiting and waiting, I'll never get to know... Being a caregiver to someone with ALS, this test is extremely important for me to take yet they make it impossible to live your life, work, see your family and try and get a Covid test to keep those around you safe. If this is how Boston is going to manage testing I can understand why there is such a huge spike in cases here... people just can't be bothered to go through what I did and not get a test... What a waste of time. Update - it's now been over 2 hours and I have yet to receive a call regarding an update or if I'll be able to get my test. I came home about 45 min ago and have been waiting for the call so I could head back... But now since it's dinner time and I didn't get to see my family because I work during the day, I can't see how this joke of an establishment is going to get me in for the test I registered for today. If anything, I would calm this place nothing but a Super Spreader business since they have you come in, scan the symbol so you can register and then make you wait for literally hours... How many people like me had to finally leave? How many of those people are walking around with Covid and don't know it? How many of those people have left their Covid germs there for others to just come and get without getting tested? The BBB and the Cambridge Health Department should seriously look into this mistake of a health center.

If I could give zero stars to MinuteClinic I would. I took my toddler to the MinuteClinic because…read morehe had recent onset flu-like symptoms and I didn't want to wait at a real urgent care or ED. The NP at the MinuteClinic told me my kid didn't need a flu test, but after my insistence (I am a physician myself and was sure he had the flu), the NP finally gave in. The flu test was indeed positive for the influenza B strain and it was early enough in my son's course for him to benefit from Tamiflu. They took my insurance and had me pay my copay. Everything seemed okay, right? 3 weeks later I get a bill of $170 despite my insurance, including an incorrect double charge for the rapid flu test. I figure, not a problem, I will call billing and get this straightened out. Here is where MinuteClinic needs to be investigated by the media and legislators, because it is impossible to reach a human being on their only customer service line at 1-866-389-2727. I waited 2 hours, only to be hung up. The next day, I call again, and immediately the transfer to billing goes straight to voicemail (!). I leave a message and was never called back. I try again the next week and the same thing happens. I can't for the life of me reach a human being despite asking for billing, customer service, supervisor, etc etc. Worst still is two months later, I get a third-party collections notice for this bill. It too has the same number for me to call to resolve the bill 1-866-389-2727. I still can't reach a human being to this day. I can only gather that this is done intentionally so that when patients receive a collections bill and cannot reach any human to resolve legitimate issues with the bill, we then are forced to pay the bill in full so as not to hurt our credit scores. Even trying to pay the bill took 1 hour of waiting on the phone. This is a disgrace and should be illegal. Never again will I go to or recommend any of my patients to go to MinuteClinic for the convenience. You will pay for it later in the sheer frustration of being unable to resolve a legitimate billing issue with a real human being and taken to collections anyway.

If you are stressed or in a situation you don't want to have to second guess where to go. My doctor examined me thoroughly and had a medical assistant. My exam was quick. This is urgent care and being quick is a good thing. . I did not have to go to an emergency room for which could take hours maybe even days to be seen, especially at a non Beth Israel emergency room.

So this was the perfect option for me rather than waiting for an appointment after a minor car accident. Or emergency room. I'm very pleased with Beth Israel, as medical provider in all areas of care including surgeries. Hands down, the best option. Discharge/service note was giving to me at record speed and my medication was called in in the same manner. I've been coming for my primary care to this location for several years.

From the moment I walked in to the follow-up days later, everything about this place exceeded my expectations for a medical facility.

The check-in process was seamless -- I was able to do everything from my phone, they processed my insurance in no time, and I paid my copay just minutes after filling out a few forms. The staff was kind, and I never felt rushed. The doctor took his time with the diagnosis, answered all my questions, and even got me in for X-rays right there on-site. The follow-up care was just as impressive. I called the next day to request copies of my visit and discharge paperwork, and a real person picked up immediately. No automated menus, no endless waiting -- within minutes, everything I needed was in my inbox. And then, two days later, I got a call from the staff checking on me. I don't think I've ever had an urgent care do that before. This was hands down the best experience I've ever had at an urgent care facility.
