Referrals & Precertification

Referrals

Insurers often require a physician referral prior to your visit to Knoxville Infectious Disease Consultants. Patients who feel they would benefit from outpatient infectious disease consultation must request a referral from their PCP or other provider directly involved in the management of the condition of concern. A KIDC physician will review your records to determine if outpatient evaluation is needed.

Precertification

If a test or procedure is ordered by a Knoxville Infectious Disease Consultants provider, our staff will obtain a necessary precertification on your behalf. Precertification for any tests or procedures ordered by your own primary care physician is the responsibility of your primary care provider’s office.

Patient Survey

Our Patients Are Important
