How Same-Day Appointments Made Via Telephone Work
When you call 844-463-2778, a registered nurse ask you a number of questions about your health condition to match the best doctor for your needs. If you call before 2 pm, we’ll offer you an appointment that day. For calls after 2 pm, we’ll offer an appointment for the next day.
What to Expect:
- When you call, please have basic identifying information, such as your address, phone number, and insurance carrier, on hand
- A registered nurse will ask questions about your symptoms to determine the appropriate physician to see you. In most cases, we’ll be able to schedule the appointment with this information.
- For complex or chronic medical conditions, additional information may be required before an appointment is scheduled. This information is critical to ensuring the right specialist to see you.
Same-Day Appointment Considerations
- If you already have a Mount Sinai doctor for your condition, we will connect you with that person’s office to schedule the appointment to ensure seamless coordination of care with your provider.
- Our priority is to ensure patients with urgent needs are seen by a physician as soon as possible; if your concern is considered immediate, you will be directed to an Emergency Department.
- We will do our best to accommodate all requests, but your appointment may be scheduled further out if you need a routine physical/check-up or specialized care.
- We will work with you, as applicable, to match your insurance plan to the best of our abilities.
