Conditions We Treat
Insurance and Referral Information
You should get a referral from your doctor before setting up an appointment. Even if your insurance company does not usually require a referral, you should contact your insurance company to find out whether nutrition counseling is a covered benefit.
Referrals should include the following information:
- Patient name and age
- Parent/guardian name
- Contact phone number
- Referring physician
- Diagnosis
- Insurance information
Referrals and authorizations should be faxed to (757) 668-9108.
Check in for outpatient appointments is on the first floor in the main hospital. Appointment days and hours vary, but are generally offered Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Special arrangements for alternative appointment times is possible; call our office.
We offer in-depth information about insurance in our billing and insurance section.
