Prior Approval and the Pre-Authorization Process
If you have managed care insurance and wish to be seen at Stony Brook University Hospital you must obtain a referral from your Primary Care Physician. Some services, for example Radiology and Therapy services, may require pre-authorization from your insurance company prior to your patient visit, test or procedure. You should refer to your insurance handbook or speak to your insurance carrier regarding pre-authorization policy and procedure.
