How to Refer a Patient

We encourage use of our New Appointment Request Form (PDF or DOC) or submitting a referral via EpicCare Link. Please complete these forms in their entirety to ensure timely processing of your patient’s referral. If your clinic uses its own referral form, please ensure all fields listed in the NARF are included in your documentation.

No pre-referral workup is required for most conditions. If you have already done a work-up (ECG, Holter monitor, echocardiogram), please fax the information with the NARF. If imaging studies (CT, MRI, X-rays) have been done, please upload to PowerShare or mail disc to:

eConsult Information

An eConsult is a non-urgent asynchronous electronic consultation request initiated by a community provider to a Seattle Children’s specialist, submitted using EpicCare Link. It allows community providers to receive timely, efficient care guidance on lower-complexity and data-oriented clinical questions that may not require an in-person evaluation.

Our Cancer and Blood Disorders Center offers eConsults (PDF) for the following conditions:

Abnormal WBC
Elevated Ferritin/Hemochromatosis
Iron Deficiency/Anemia
Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytosis
Lymphadenopathy
Unspecified Clinical Question
