Prominence Care Centers
Unlike other insurance carriers, Prominence is tackling major health care issues in Nevada, with a local touch. Currently, there is a Primary Care Physician shortage in Northern Nevada. As a result, the wait times to see a doctor are outrageous. Therefore, Prominence is solving this problem. Earlier in 2019, Prominence opened their Prominence Care Centers in both Reno and Carson City. Prominence in 2020 is hoping to open more of these facilities dedicated to members enrolled in Prominence. These exclusive facilities have Primary Care Physicians, Laboratories, and on-site Pharmacies.
