FastMed

What FastMed does

FastMed (legal entity FMBCNC, LLC) operates a multi-state network of walk-in urgent care and primary care clinics, concentrated in North Carolina and Arizona. Core services include treatment of acute illness and injury, primary and preventive care, occupational health (DOT and non-federal drug testing, employment physicals, work injury care, pulmonary function testing), vaccinations, on-site labs and X-rays, telehealth, and physical exams (school, camp, sports, work). The company is privately held, headquartered in Durham, North Carolina (PO Box 271, Durham, NC 27702), and operates a legal network that includes FastMed P.C., FastMed Primary Care P.C., NC Health Services P.C., and NC Health Care Support P.C. participating in an Organized Health Care Arrangement.

The technology stack is built around Epic's MyChart for patient scheduling, bill payment, and medical record access, with participation in three health information exchanges (NC HealthConnex, Epic Care Everywhere, and Carequality) to enable cross-provider record sharing. The platform is also HIPAA-compliant, WCAG 2.1 AA-accessible, and Joint Commission-accredited (Gold Seal of Approval for ambulatory healthcare). Operating integrations include a joint venture with HonorHealth in Arizona and an OHCA arrangement with Avance Care P.A. announced in September 2025. In December 2025, FastMed expanded beyond its US clinic footprint with a regulated online GLP-1 weight management program launched in Hong Kong (wholly owned subsidiary FastMed Hong Kong Weight Management Program).

FastMed generates revenue on a fee-for-service, per-visit basis, paid through a mix of major commercial insurance reimbursement and direct self-pay pricing for uninsured patients. Customer segments are primarily individual walk-in patients (urgent and primary care) with secondary employer occupational health contracts and school/sports physical demand. Marketing is predominantly direct-to-consumer via the company website, MyChart portal, and health-resource content, supplemented by local community engagement and direct employer outreach for occupational health. Reported headcount (5,001-10,000) and revenue are not formally disclosed; the firmographic figures should be treated with caution as they may reflect affiliated professional corporations under the OHCA rather than purely FastMed-branded clinical employees.
