Choose two psychiatrists and PCP’s in your area to fact find how long it will take to get
an appointment if you are reporting symptoms of anxiety and sadness.
Instructions:
• Find two psychiatrists (or psychiatric APRNs) in your area to fact find.
• Call your PCP (if you don’t have one, ask a friend or family member to call
theirs).
• Call each provider and document how long it took for someone to call you back.
o If psychiatrists are accepting new patients, when is their first available
appointment?
o Find out how soon your PCP can get you in for an appointment.
o Do they accept your insurance; if not, what is the out of pocket costs? Do
they require you to be in therapy in order to prescribe medication?
