医疗状况及探访
保持你的健康, it is important to follow the suggested regimen of visits and care as prescribed by your physician. 某些药物 require routine bloodwork to allow the physician to monitor and change (if necessary) the medications you are receiving. 如果我们的临床工作人员发现你不听话, 你将被要求来办公室参观.
转诊和管理护理问题
We make every effort to cooperate with your managed care programs and their policies regarding referrals and pre-certification. 一般来说, our practice will not make referrals to specialists if you have not been seen in our office for the problem related to the referral. We will also not make a referral if you have never been seen in our offices, or if you have not been seen in our offices in the last 6 months. 如果你打电话给我们办公室是因为你需要推荐, you will probably (unless it is for an ongoing chronic issue) be asked to come in.
药物续杯
If you are currently on a maintenance medication please contact our office at least 72 hours before your medication runs out so that it can be refilled. Our office policy is to have patients visit on a regualr schedule to allow us to monitor their condition. 某些药物, 比如慢性止痛药, will require a visit ever 2-3 months for monitoring and evaluation. Brentwood Medical will not fill prescription requests if a patient has not been compliant with this policy.

药物的事先授权
It can sometimes take 48-72 hours for your insurance to process the information and send us a decision on the request. Please plan accordingly so you do not run out of your medication.
