Terms of Use & Conditions

1. Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to Premier Urgent Care Guide (https://premierurgentcarefw.com/, referred to in this agreement as the "Site," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing, browsing, printing from, or interacting with any page, guide, directory, or JavaScript calculator on the Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"), together with our Medical Disclaimer and our Privacy Policy & Cookie Disclosures, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you must discontinue using the Site immediately. You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, or visiting under the direct supervision of a parent or legal guardian) to use this Site.

2. Not a Healthcare Provider & Medical Emergency Notice

PremierUrgentCareFW.com does not practice medicine, nursing, pharmacy, or any other licensed healthcare profession. We do not operate a physical walk-in urgent care clinic, hospital, laboratory, or telemedicine service, and we do not employ clinicians to examine, diagnose, or treat visitors.

Use of the Site, including submitting feedback via email, never establishes a physician-patient or provider-patient relationship. All clinical decisions—including whether to visit an emergency room or urgent care clinic, which diagnostic tests to perform, and whether to take any prescription or over-the-counter medication—must be made in consultation with a qualified, licensed healthcare professional.

3. Permitted Personal Non-Commercial Use & Prohibited Conduct

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Premier Urgent Care Guide grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the Site and print single copies of articles, tables, or patient preparation checklists solely for your personal, non-commercial informational use (for example, bringing a printed DOT physical preparation checklist or list of questions to your medical appointment).

You agree that you will not engage in any of the following prohibited activities:

• Republishing, mirroring, framing, selling, licensing, or commercially redistributing our articles, custom medical SVG diagrams, structured tables, or interactive JavaScript calculators on another website, mobile application, or print publication without prior written permission;
• Deploying automated scrapers, bots, spiders, or bulk-harvesting scripts that impose an unreasonable load on our servers or extract content in violation of standard robots.txt directives (excluding legitimate public search engine indexing crawlers);
• Re-packaging, embedding, or misrepresenting any interactive calculator from PremierUrgentCareFW.com as a certified clinical diagnostic medical device or hospital triage system;
• Impersonating a medical clinic, physician, hospital representative, or our editorial staff, or transmitting any malware, cross-site scripting payload, or denial-of-service traffic; or
• Sending unsolicited Protected Health Information (PHI), third-party medical records, or unlawful, defamatory, or commercial spam messages to our editorial email addresses.

4. Intellectual Property & Third-Party Trademarks

All original editorial text, page layouts, custom SVG clinical diagrams, interactive calculator software code, CSS design elements, compilation structures, and brand marks on PremierUrgentCareFW.com are owned by Premier Urgent Care Guide and protected by United States and international copyright and intellectual property laws.

Public-domain federal publications issued by U.S. government agencies (such as the CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS, and FMCSA) remain in the public domain pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 105, though our original synthesis, commentary, tables, and visual presentation are proprietary. Hospital names, health insurer names, medication brand names, and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®, a registered trademark of the American Medical Association) codes referenced in our cost-transparency and local directory articles are the property of their respective owners and are used strictly under nominative fair use for consumer health and billing education, without implying affiliation or endorsement.

5. Accuracy, Clinical Updates & Price Estimate Disclaimers

While the Premier Acute Care Editorial Desk works diligently to verify clinical thresholds and healthcare pricing benchmarks against authoritative primary sources (as detailed in our Editorial Policy), healthcare clinical standards, local hospital operations, insurance plan structures, and clinic fee schedules change frequently:

• Cost & Billing Estimates Are Non-Binding: Dollar ranges displayed in our Out-of-Pocket Cost Estimator and pricing guides represent educational national and Midwest/Indiana market benchmarks—not a binding price quote, insurance coverage guarantee, or statutory Good Faith Estimate from any specific medical provider. Actual out-of-pocket charges depend on the treating clinician's Evaluation & Management coding level, lab send-out fees, facility billing status, and your insurer's real-time deductible accumulator.
• Local Directory Verification: Although we verify addresses and main phone numbers for Fort Wayne and Allen County 24/7 hospital emergency departments listed on our FW Care Directory, hospital trauma designations, street construction detours, and insurance network contracts can change without prior notice to us. Always call ahead for non-emergencies or dial 911 in an emergency.

6. Third-Party Links & Display Advertisements

The Site contains outbound reference links to government agencies, specialty medical organizations, Google Maps directions, and third-party consumer opt-out portals, as well as programmatic advertisements served by third-party networks including Google AdSense.

We do not control, operate, audit, or endorse the content, privacy practices, clinical services, or products offered by external websites or third-party advertisers. Any interaction, purchase, appointment booking, or correspondence you enter into with a third party or advertiser found on or linked from the Site is solely between you and that third party, and Premier Urgent Care Guide bears no responsibility or liability for any loss or claim arising therefrom.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, GUIDES, CHECKLISTS, DIRECTORIES, AND INTERACTIVE CALCULATORS ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. PREMIER URGENT CARE GUIDE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR MEDICAL OR FINANCIAL PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, AND ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED OPERATION.

8. Limitation of Liability & Indemnification

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL PREMIER URGENT CARE GUIDE, ITS OWNERS, EDITORS, RESEARCHERS, CONTRIBUTORS, OR HOSTING PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PERSONAL INJURY, WRONGFUL DEATH, DELAYED MEDICAL CARE, UNEXPECTED MEDICAL BILLS, LOST DATA, OR LOST PROFITS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, RELIANCE UPON, OR INABILITY TO USE THIS SITE OR ANY CONTENT OR INTERACTIVE TOOL HEREON, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Premier Urgent Care Guide and its operators from and against any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, and reasonable expenses arising out of your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Site.

9. Governing Law, Venue & Severability

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or related to your use of PremierUrgentCareFW.com shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Indiana, United States of America, without giving effect to any choice or conflict-of-law provision. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Indiana located in Allen County, Indiana.

If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining provisions of these Terms continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

All updates are effective immediately upon posting to https://premierurgentcarefw.com/terms/ with an updated Effective Date in the page header.
