Transplant Referral
Children's of Alabama utilizes a team approach of comprehensive care that includes the referring physician. The patient referral process is designed to be straightforward and simple for the referring office and the patient.
Step One
Transplant Team will need copies of the following patient records:
- Recent medical history and physical or clinical summary
- Laboratory data and clinic notes
- Hospitalization records
- Renal biopsy, radiology, renal ultrasound, and VCUG
- Blood type
- OP notes
- Discharge summaries
- Immunization records
- TB skin test
- Dental records/checkup
Step Two
- The information is reviewed by the transplant team and insurance authorization is requested.
Step Three
- After insurance authorization is obtained, a transplant appointment is scheduled. This appointment may include the evaluation testing required.
- You will receive a packet of information to review and bring with you to your appointment.
