The referral and workup Weight Loss and Vitality receives

A referral to Weight Loss and Vitality carries what the team needs up front: the reason for referral, the BMI and weight history, and the medical conditions that make weight care appropriate. Include the comorbidity list and any prior weight-loss attempts so Weight Loss and Vitality has the complete picture from the first visit. Keep the confirmation so the referring office knows the referral arrived.

Getting a weight program or medication covered at Weight Loss and Vitality

Coverage at Weight Loss and Vitality rests on the paperwork, so the office faxes the supervised-diet record, the BMI-history documentation, and the comorbidity list the plan requires before it will approve the program or the medication. A prior-authorization packet should carry the supervised-diet visit notes, the BMI history, and the documented comorbidities together. Keep the confirmation so the record shows the packet was transmitted.
