YOUR FIRST VISIT

PLEASE READ THIS PAGE FULLY. Preparation for your visit is essential in helping us to see you and all patients in a timely manner.  Please assist us by completing these tasks before you arrive.

1) Contact your insurance carrier and ask them to assign Dr. Alice Coghill as your Primary Care Physician.  If you need a Provider ID Number please contact our office at 212-244-4520.

2) In addition to contacting your insurance company, please bring the following with you to your appointment:

  • Your insurance card
  • A valid, government-issued photo-id card.
  • Any prescription medications you are currently taking.
  • A copy of your medical records from your previous Primary Care Physician.
  • Please understand your insurance policy and what it covers.  For example, if you are coming in for a general physical please verify that your policy covers this services. Many plans no longer cover the "annual check-up."
  • Female patients, please know  the date of the first day of your last menstrual period.  This can help Dr. Coghill determine appropriate tests and/or medication. 
  • Please remember that all co-pays are due in cash or credit card only before seeing the doctor.  We do not accept checks.
  • Please go to the forms page (click here) and print out the Medical Information Release Authorization form.  Please complete a copy of the form for each of the other doctors which you are currently seeing, and one for your previous Primary Care Physician.  This will allow us to request your medical records and to discuss your medical history with others involved in your care.
3) Check your email.  A few days before your first appointment, you should receive an email with the New Patient Registration Packet.  Please fill out the forms completely.  Bring the completed and signed forms to your appointment and present them to the medical assistant at check-in. If you are coming for a Pre-Travel Health Consultation, you should receive the Pre-Travel Registration forms instead.  Please be sure to read our Privacy Policy.

4) About one day before your appointment, or immediately afterwards, please register for our ONLINE OFFICE so that you may utilize our secure messaging capabilities to request lab results online.  To learn more about our Online Office, Click Here.

5) Please read the document Welcome to Midtown Primary Care and Travel Vaccinations by Dr. Alice Coghill.

6) Please review our FAQS page to familiarize yourself with some of our polices.

Office visits are for non-emergency conditions. If you are experiencing symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath or otherwise feel you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
