INOVA Reston is near the Reston Hospital.  There are primary care doctors in the areas closed.  However an off hours or can't get a quick appointment or an emergency that doesn't potentially require hospitalization should not mean a trip to a hospital ER which appears to be the goal.  Along with far higher costs- physicians group bill, ER presence bill, tests.

Reston is opening a 24/7 Tysons ER center in 2022- for serious issues it will transport patients to Reston Hospital.  In the article:
[i]Inova choose to close urgent-care centers that were near sites such as emergency rooms or primary-care offices, Connell wrote in an email. “We will continue to monitor patient volume and reopen locations as soon as possible,” she wrote.[/i]

So where in NOVA is a place not near numerous primary care doctors? Purcellville?  https://www.inova.org/locations?&type[]=361
Centreville, Chantilly. North Arlington, Purcellville, Reston, Tysons, Vienna, West Springfield

Tysons closure -site near Vienna.  Is this really about non INOVA hospitals near Reston and North Arlington?  [/quote]
