 Scheduling Your Appointment

When calling for a new patient appointment, Allergy & Asthma Consultants' receptionists PRE-REGISTER all new patients, so please be prepared to provide the following patient's information:

1. Reason for Appointment
2. Full Name
3. Home Address
4. Phone numbers (Home and Alternate)
5. Date of Birth 
6. Specific insurance information, including: Insured Party's Name, Date of Birth, Relationship to patient, Social Security #'s, Group #'s, Claims Address and Phone #'s
7. Referring physician, if applicable.

Without ALL of this information, we may not be able to schedule the appointment.

Each of these pieces of information is kept CONFIDENTIAL and is essential to assure that your claims can be processed as cleanly and quickly as possible.  This will help to maximize your benefits for our services.  This Pre-enrollment information will also help to make sure that you are seen by the doctor in a timely manner and not waiting due to a delay in gathering this written information after you arrive.

An initial appointment with testing can take approximately 2 hours, so please plan accordingly.

We make every attempt to supply you with the necessary information needed for your appointment.  If lead time permits, we will mail you an enrollment packet for you to complete prior to your appointment or you can download them here for your convenience.  The packet includes a Patient Enrollment Form with a Health Questionnaire on the back, the HIPAA Authorization Form and our Welcome Letter to you.  The Welcome Letter contains instructions that you will need to follow prior to your appointment.

Our doctors will make every effort to perform any medically necessary testing during your initial visit.  This will save you time and money from having to schedule a separate appointment just for testing at a later date.

The cost for allergy testing can vary greatly from patient to patient and insurance to insurance.  Please feel free to ask for general pricing guidelines.
