A referral is a written authorization from your primary care physician (PCP) for you to see a specialist or receive certain medical services.
Referrals ensure coordinated care between your PCP and specialists. They are often required by insurance plans for coverage of specialist visits.
Contact your PCP’s office to request a referral. They will assess your needs and, if appropriate, issue a referral to a specialist.
Processing times vary, but most referrals are completed within 3-5 business days. Urgent referrals may be processed more quickly.
This depends on your insurance plan. Some plans require referrals for all specialist visits, while others may allow direct access to certain specialists.
Referral validity periods vary by insurance plan and type of service. Typically, they are valid for 3-6 months or for a specific number of visits.
If your insurance plan requires referrals, you may be responsible for the full cost of the visit if you see a specialist without one.
Referrals cannot be issued retroactively. Always check with your PCP before seeing a specialist.
Contact your PCP’s office or check your patient portal for updates on your referral status.
This depends on your original referral terms. Some referrals cover multiple visits, while others may require renewal for follow-ups.
