Do I need a referral to make an appointment?

Asked 2 years ago
Whether a referral is necessary for an appointment at the ENT Center of Austin can depend on several factors. Many insurance plans do require a referral from a primary care physician before seeing a specialist, including an ear, nose, and throat specialist. However, some plans may allow you to make an appointment without a referral. To understand your specific requirements, it is best to check with your insurance provider directly. If you are unsure about what you need, you can also look at the current web page for any guidance regarding appointment scheduling and referral policies. In general, it is always beneficial to have any relevant medical history or information prepared ahead of time to expedite your visit, whether or not a referral is required.
