So Bradley had his 6 month follow up appointment at the neurologist today for his migraines and well when we get there.. (not a very short trip I might add, 30 minutes there, 30 minutes to get him back to school and then 30 minutes to drive back down there to work.. So an hour and half of driving) they say do you have the referral.. WHAT, what do you mean "the referral"..?? We have been coming here forever and you have never asked about a referral before I told them... They said every 6 months the referral expires and you need a new one.. Well it is 2009 I might add and we have been coming here since 2007 and we have never been asked this question before.... So they look at the last referral and it says "2007".. I was like we came here 2 times last year and nothing was ever said, blah blah blah.. Soooooooo... they called my insurance company and they said well since it is over a year old now we need his PCP to do the referral .. so then we had to call the PCP and get them to do a referral.. I mean honestly, isn't that "THEIR" job to follow up on that OR to make sure it is in the file the day before when they call to confirm my appointment.. So rather than it taking the normal 30 minutes.. We were in there more than an hour today.. So my thought is.... Do I need a referral to knock her out??
