MultiCare Health System is a not-for-profit American health care organization based in Tacoma, Washington. Founded in 1882, MultiCare provides health care services at dozens of locations, including seven hospitals, across Washington state.

The system also operates Indigo Urgent Care, a chain of urgent care centers in Washington that debuted in 2016.[1]

Indigo Urgent Care[]

Indigo Doctor's Strike[]

On November 23 and 24, 2020, physicians at MultiCare Indigo Urgent Care went on strike against unsafe working conditions.[2] Throughout the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, MultiCare has refused to provide N95 masks to the Indigo physicians. The physicians are represented by the Union of American Physicians and Dentists.[3]
