What steps should I take to establish with a new primary care provider?
To transfer your care to a new provider, we recommend the following steps:
- Find a new primary care provider who meets your needs. Contact their office to check if they accept new patients and your insurance.
- Contact our office to request the transfer of your medical records to the new provider.
- Schedule an appointment with your new provider for a thorough review of your medical history and ongoing care.
- Inform your insurance provider about the change of your primary care provider.
By following these steps, you can smoothly transition your care to a new provider.
It’s been a long time since I searched for a new provider, what should I look for?
Finding a new doctor is a personal decision, so it’s best to do some research and contact the new clinic. In addition to checking with your insurance provider to ensure coverage, we encourage you to talk with family and friends and read online reviews. Once you have selected a potential provider, here is a list of some questions you might ask them:
- How do you involve patients in treatment decisions?
- What experience do you have with my condition/medical needs?
- How can I communicate with you outside of appointments?
- What is your availability and appointment scheduling process?
- How do you approach preventive care and wellness?
- What is your stance on alternative or complementary treatments?
- How do you coordinate care with other providers?
If I need prescription medications refilled, how can I do so?
We encourage you to find a new primary care provider to ensure you continue to get the care you need. We can work with you and your new provider to transfer medical records, including prescription information.
Depending on your new provider’s policies, they may require an initial appointment before prescribing or refilling medications. If this is the case, schedule an appointment at the earliest convenience with your new care provider to discuss your medication needs. It is also a good idea to let your pharmacy know you have a new primary care doctor.
What if I have further questions or concerns?
After March 31, 2024, you may obtain a copy of your medical record(s) by contacting 312-858-5112 and JoviveChicagoMedicalrecords@vituity.com .
