What can I use after hours calls for?
After hours calls are for acute care only. Providers are able to address any medication dosing issues and offer medical advice and answer questions when a patient is ill or experiencing symptoms that are of concern.
What can I not use after hours calls for?
Refills, well visits, consults, referrals, prior authorizations and physical forms are handled during normal business hours. If you do need any of these things as a result of your after-hours call, the provider is able to create a follow-up appointment for you.
What if my child needs a prescription after hours?
Prescriptions that need to be called in will be at the discretion of the provider on call. Although we encourage your child to be seen in the office within 48 hours of any on call communication, it is mandatory for a patient to come in to the office within 48-72 hours if a prescription was called in after hours. Failure to come to the appointment can result in dismissal from the practice.
