Referral Toolkit

Dedicated to partnering with physicians and practices to provide the best possible specialty care for patients, Children's Memorial offers new tools to help navigate the Children's Memorial Health System. These tools include:

• A Quick Reference List for important phone numbers and contact names
• A pocket Specialist Referral Guide, a listing physicians by specialty (based on Find a Doctor, our searchable database of physicians and where they see patients)
• Maps with driving directions to the hospital and outpatient centers, also listing services available at each location

• Patient referral cards for practices to share with families

• A VIP Physician Hotline (1.800.540.4131) magnet

• An easy-to-reorder fax form

VIP Physician Hotline: 1.800.540.4131

To respond quickly to medical professionals’ needs, the hospital’s VIP Physician Hotline is answered by pediatric nurses. Call to request a transfer, speak to the Emergency Department, admit a patient, get an outpatient referral, request a physician-to-physician consultation, access test results and more.
