Abstract

The retail clinic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system writ large since its inception in the early 2000s. From its earliest days, in part to combat strong opposition, the industry established a commitment, and related processes and platforms, to collect and apply data to continuous quality improvement. Data has allowed the industry to illustrate its quality while minimizing concerns about perceived harms. The industry will continue to grow, as a model for the positive utilization of data collection in a healthcare context.
