Scheduling tips

Here are a few helpful hints that will help streamline the check-in process when you have an imaging appointment.

Before you schedule

Schedule your exam several days before your follow-up appointment. This allows time for your doctor to receive and analyze exam results.

Please have the following information available when you call:

• Name, date of birth and Social Security number
• Emergency contact information
• Insurance card
• Name of the ordering doctor
• Type of exam
• Reason for the exam

Some of our check-in forms are available online if you prefer to fill them out ahead of time. Doing so can cut your check-in time in half.

The day of your exam

Please follow all the necessary preparations for your procedure.

When you arrive you will need:

• Doctor's referral (if we did not receive it directly from your physician)
• State-issued ID or driver's license
• Insurance card
• Social Security number
• Employer's name, address and phone number

In case of a workplace injury be prepared to provide:

• Date of the injury
• Employer's insurance company name, address and phone
• Claim number
• Case manager's name

In case of an auto accident be prepared to provide:

• Date of the accident
• Name of the insured driver
• Driver's insurance company name, address and phone number
• Claim number

In a hospital setting, there are occasionally emergencies that arise that could possibly delay your appointment.  It is our expectation that you should not have to wait more than 5 minutes past your scheduled appointment time.
