Change of provider preparation question.

[p2030]

Hi all,

DS is a high school sophomore. He has been with one health care provider for most of his life and his records are mostly from there. The rates for that provider are going up more than $500 per month so we are planning to switch to a different (hopefully better) provider. Knowing what you know about what will be needed in the next few years for DODMERB, is there anything you would recommend I do right now before we exit the current health care provider in terms of housekeeping or records etc.

Thanks in advance

Request your full, formal clinical documentation and if there are ANY diagnoses made, make sure they are shown on there as resolved or get letters saying they are resolved. Same with medication, if there's any on the document it must also say the medication is not being prescribed anymore. You should still be able to request things as needed even if you miss anything.

Ditto this. Make sure everything is resolved. No open ended diagnosis.

Thank you both.

Luckily he has had the same doctor the whole time and if I explain this I believe she can notate it how you mentioned.

I'd also suggest making sure they include the most up to date list of vaccinations.
