High Point healthcare

A 24 hour medical center and broad catalog footprint still require personal network review

High Point Medical Center lists a 24 hour emergency department, CT, MRI, digital X ray, ultrasound, laboratory services, trauma and resuscitation rooms, observation rooms, and on call medical specialists. The catalog records one mapped hospital nearby, 351 reported beds within 12 kilometers, 123 CMS listed selected specialists, 10 likely primary care sites within 15 miles, and 31 pharmacies.

The catalog places the nearest CMS rated hospital at 2 of 5 stars and 2.3 miles away. Treat that metric as a prompt for direct review rather than a complete quality judgment. Confirm current physicians, plans, referrals, diagnostics, prescriptions, transfers, rehabilitation, transport, traffic, and aftercare.

High Point in everyday life

Could High Point work for you?

What may work well

  • High Point Medical Center publishes a named local hospital, 24 hour emergency care, diagnostics, trauma rooms, observation, and specialist consultation.

What to think about

  • Facility lists and ratings do not settle every physician, wait, cost, coverage, referral, transfer, or aftercare arrangement.
  • Heat, storms, traffic, parking, and regional travel can affect recovery.
