Referrals

We have a dedicated referral coordinator to help you with all your referral needs.  Each insurance company is different in what services they cover.  Our referral coordinator will work closely with you, the doctors, and your insurance company to ensure a smooth process.  While some referrals can be generated immediately we generally require five business days to process a referral to allow time for pre-authorizations and letters of medical necessity.  You may call and speak with Peggy, our referral coordinator, between the hours of 9 am to 4:30 pm, Monday-Friday
