Organize by the question

  • Create separate entries for clinical questions, appointments, home health or facility coordination, supplies, and billing if those apply to you.
  • Ask each team which questions it handles and which need to go to another clinician or organization.

Record more than a phone number

  • Include the person's name or department, organization, phone number, and any contact hours or message instructions they give you.
  • Ask your treating team for its after-hours instructions and the plan to follow when your usual contact is unavailable.

Make it easy to find

  • Keep a copy where you normally make calls and share it with the people you have chosen to help with care.
  • Review the list when you change providers, suppliers, or care settings, and mark which contacts are no longer current.
