Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper Scrapes urgent care clinic locations from [CareNow](https://www.carenow.com), HCA Healthcare's urgent care network. Returns structured profiles for 250+ US clinics including addresses, phone numbers, operating hours, services offered, and GPS coordinates. --- ### CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper Features - Discovers all clinic URLs automatically from CareNow's sitemap — no manual list required - Extracts 22+ fields per clinic: name, address, phone, hours, services, coordinates, and booking URL - Identifies key service capabilities — X-ray, lab/diagnostics, occupational health, telemedicine — as boolean flags for easy filtering - Returns daily hours in structured per-day format (Sunday through Saturday), with an `hours_extended` flag for clinics open past 8 PM - Filters by US state using the `states` input — useful when you only need Texas, or only need Nevada - Pure HTML scraping — no browser required, no proxies needed. CareNow publishes full clinic data in server-rendered page JSON - Includes `is_open` flag derived from each clinic's operational status, so closed or suspended locations are immediately visible --- ### Who Uses CareNow Clinic Data? - **Healthcare market analysts** — track urgent care network density by state or county to identify coverage gaps - **Insurance and benefits teams** — map in-network urgent care locations for employee benefit portals and EOB communications - **Healthcare consultants** — benchmark CareNow's service mix (occupational health, telemedicine availability) against competitors - **HR and occupational health teams** — identify CareNow clinics offering DOT physicals and drug screening near their facilities - **Real estate and site selection teams** — overlay clinic locations against demographic data when evaluating facility placement - **Aggregator platforms** — keep urgent care directory listings current without manual data entry --- ### How It Works 1. The scraper fetches CareNow's XML sitemap and extracts all individual clinic URLs — roughly 250 locations in the current network. 2. Each clinic page is fetched and parsed. CareNow uses Next.js server rendering, so all location data lives in a JSON blob embedded in the page HTML — no JavaScript execution needed. 3. The JSON is unpacked to extract the full location object: address, coordinates, hours, services taxonomy, booking URL, and operational status. 4. Records are saved to the dataset as clean JSON. Apply a `states` filter if you only want a subset, or leave it empty to collect everything. --- ### CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper Input ```json { "maxItems": 50, "states": ["TX", "TN", "GA"] } ```` | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `maxItems` | integer | 15 | Maximum clinics to return.

CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper handles discovery automatically. Set `maxItems` to control how many clinics you get, use `states` to narrow by geography, and run it. The sitemap has roughly 250 locations and the actor pulls all of them if you let it. #### How much does the CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper cost to run? The actor charges $0.10 per run start plus $0.001 per clinic record. Scraping all 250 US locations costs roughly $0.35 total — less if you're filtering by state. #### Can I filter CareNow clinics by state? CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper accepts a `states` array with 2-letter codes. Pass `["TX"]` for Texas only, or `["TX", "TN", "GA"]` for multiple states. Leave it empty to get everything. #### Does the scraper identify which clinics offer occupational health services? Yes. The `occupational_health` field is set to `true` for any clinic whose services include occupational health, DOT physicals, drug screening, or workplace medicine. Same pattern for `has_xray`, `has_lab`, and `telemedicine` — each is a boolean flag derived from CareNow's own service taxonomy. #### Does the CareNow Urgent Care Clinic Scraper need proxies? No proxies needed. CareNow's site is publicly accessible and server-rendered. The scraper fetches plain HTML at a conservative pace and parses embedded JSON — no browser, no captcha, no residential proxy required. *** ### Need More Features?
