Policy for visits and refills

Visits:

As specialists in Psychopharmacology, our physicians will closely manage any medication they may prescribe for you by scheduling your office visits as often as needed until you are well and then by scheduling maintenance visits to keep you well till you and your doctor agree than you have reached your goals. Should you choose to have our physicians manage your medication and refill your prescriptions, we ask that you visit every 3months at minimum. Your General practitioner or another psychiatrist may feel comfortable with less frequent visits. If you choose, we can discharge you and transfer your records.

If for any reason you have not had a session with your physician and need a refill without changes after 3 months, we will schedule a 5 minute phone appointment with your doctor at a cost of $185. If you are not doing well and need any prescription changes you will need to schedule a full phone session. Any patient who has not been seen for 12 months will be considered a new patient.

If you are late for your appointment, our physician will be still able to see you for the time remaining of your session. You will be billed for the time of the original appointment. If you arrive after your session is fully over we will be more than happy to reschedule your appointment; however you will be billed for missed session.

Weigh Policy:

I agree to be weighed prior to all nutrition sessions. I understand that I have the option to not see my weight and will let the dietitian know if this is my desire prior to being weighed. I understand that I will be asked to remove excess clothing and accessories including items such as shoes, coats, scarves, jewelry and belts."

Prescription refills:

Because we require visits every 3 months and refill medications at each visit you should not need to routinely call for prescription refills. If for any reason, you find you do need refills between appointments, please call at least 72hours before you will run out of medicine and leave the following information: your name, date of birth, phone number, medication name, dose, frequency and pharmacy number.

Because your physician may be out of the office and away from her records, there is a 3-business day turnaround time required for prescription refill processing.

If “emergency” prescriptions are required between appointments more than twice a year a fee of $150.00 will be charged.

Controlled substance prescriptions must be picked up at the office or sent by certified mail for a fee of $8 (card information required to be on file)

Cancellation & Closure Policy:

If you need to cancel your appointment for any reason, it is important that you leave a message at least 48 hours (2 business day) prior to that appointment – otherwise, you will be charged for the appointment time.

During winter months, if MCPS are closed or delayed due to an inconvenient weather, each physician will make their own decision regarding if the office will stay open. You will be contacted by our office and rescheduled if necessary

Our office will be closed on following holidays: Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day & Black Friday, December 24 & December 25 and New Years Day.
