Streamlined Referral Process for Back and Neck Pain

Premier Pulse     August 2019

When patients have back or neck pain issues, you can help them find the right care quickly with Premier Health Spine – a referral center managed by a central team that places patient referrals with appropriate specialists throughout Premier Physician Network.

Our central team refers patients to experienced physicians and advanced practice providers in multiple disciplines, including orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, pain management, chiropractic services, and physical medicine and rehabilitation.

To help expedite care, advanced practice providers see both new and existing patients and help coordinate any testing patients might need before seeing a specialist. Non-operative treatments are considered first, with surgery as an option when appropriate.

To refer a patient to Premier Health Spine, search location/department “Premier Health Spine” in Epic. Independent physicians can fax a referral form to (937) 208-9452(937) 208-5143.
