Physician Referral Hotline to Benefit Community
Mangum, Oklahoma (December 11, 2009) – Quartz Mountain Healthcare System has recently put into operation a toll-free Physician Referral Hotline (1-888-84-QMDOCS). Community members are now able to call the Physician Referral Hotline and provide a Quartz Mountain Healthcare System representative with their individual healthcare provider preferences, including insurance information, specialty, gender and clinic information. The QMHS representative will use that information to match each patient with the provider best suited for them based on the criteria provided.
“We believe the referral hotline will be a convenient asset for our community. We will be able to provide pertinent information and connect each caller with a healthcare provider within our system best matching their needs”, explains Jan Winter, RN, MHA, Quartz Mountain Healthcare System CEO.
