To schedule a PET scan for your patient, simply
call 703-698-5593 (for Annandale office) or 301-652-8001
(for Chevy Chase office) and provide the patient's
name, phone number and medical diagnosis. The Metro
Region PET (MRP) Center's staff will handle all
other coordination including:
- A
scheduler will obtain all necessary information
that is needed from the patient when calling
to schedule his or her appointment.
- MRP
staff members will coordinate all the steps
necessary to verify benefits, but if pre-certification
is needed, most plans require it be done by
the referring physician's office staff
- Once
a requisition form, along with the appropriate
medical history and diagnostic reports, is received
from the referring physician, the patient will
be contacted. A scheduler will obtain insurance
and demographic information (i.e., if the patient
has had recent chemotherapy, radiation, surgery,
whether the patient is diabetic, etc.). Once
this information is obtained, insurance benefits
will be verified and the patient will be scheduled.
