Understanding the Specialist Referral Process
There are various reasons you may need to see a specialist after an acute or urgent medical illness or condition. What is a referral? A specialist referral is a written order to a doctor specializing in a particular medical area. It is typically written by your primary care provider. Referrals are a direct order processed through your insurance company to confirm that you require additional treatment outside of the scope of primary care. The good news is that State Urgent Care can refer you to a specialist during your visit to be seen for both short and long-term care and recovery.
Insurance Coverage and Referrals
Most insurance companies require a referral before seeing a specialist, but the exact requirements are based on your specific insurance coverage. Although referrals are not mandated for specialist treatment, they are the most cost-effective option for those who have medical insurance. In most cases, HMO and POS plans require referrals before specialist visits, while PPO and EPO plans do not. We accept most major insurance plans and offer a range of payment options to make your healthcare experience as seamless as possible.
| Insurance Plan Type | Referral Requirement | Patient Cost Responsibility |
|---|---|---|
| HMO and POS plans | Require referrals before specialist visits | Typically only responsible for a copay |
| PPO and EPO plans | Do not require referrals | Portion of the insurance deductible |
| No Referral Obtained | N/A | Responsible for up to 100% of the cost |
