EMERGENCY MEDICAL SITUATIONS

If you perceive that you or your family member are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, call 911 for emergency services without delay. If you are able, have someone call the office number and notify the operator that you need to speak to a nurse regarding an emergency.

For urgent matters outside our normal office hours, that cannot be addressed by an on-call physician, we may make arrangements to have you seen in one of the local Emergency Departments.

FOR NON-URGENT MATTERS

We suggest that you wait until the next business day in order for your care to be provided by the physician who knows you best. However, should your physician not be available, then the treating physician will easily have access to your office records, which includes medical history, allergies and current medications.

AFTER HOURS PRESCRIPTIONS

We want to provide the best care possible. Because internal medicine physicians deal with a wide variety of cases, and to ensure that care for the more urgently ill will not be compromised, we reserve the right to take up to two business days to refill prescriptions. It is our policy NOT to fill requests for any narcotic pain medication or controlled substance after usual business hours. If you anticipate the need for these medications, please request these during regular office hours.

SEEING A SPECIALIST

Often, an office visit with your primary care physician is the best place to start. Discussing the situation with your primary care physician first helps clarify for your medical record what the problem appears to be. This will help us refer you to the most appropriate specialty physician. However, the internal medicine physicians at Cary Medical Group have additional training in many facets of adult healthcare, so you may be able to avoid the added cost of a specialist. When a specialist is needed we can help guide you through the process. For those whose insurance requires a referral, we must document the required criteria before processing the referral. When the criteria is met, the referral authorization must be requested and received prior to your specialist visit.

We are dedicated to processing non-emergency referrals as soon as possible, but please be aware that these non-emergency referrals require two days notice. Please be aware of these limitations so that you will be able to receive the benefit of your insurance coverage.

HOSPITAL AFFILIATIONS

We have partnered with the hospitalist physicians at Rex Hospital and Wake Med Health. Hospitalists are Internal Medicine physicians who work exclusively in the hospitals to provide around-the-clock care for patients.
