2nd Opinion Program
​

When diagnosed with a serious cardiovascular health issue, it is important to be sure you fully understand your condition and all available treatment options. Getting a second opinion can provide peace of mind and confidence that you have been diagnosed appropriately and understand of all your treatment options. 

​With a second opinion, individuals will benefit from a face-to-face meeting with a cardiovascular specialist to discuss the prescribed treatment method and learn about potential alternatives offered at RWJUH. To speed up the appointment process, please gather the following information:
  • Your contact information including home address, email address, and phone numbers (home, cell, work)
  • Current diagnosis information and information on any treatment you’ve already received
  • Your referring physician's information including name, address, and phone number
  • Your primary care physician’s information (if it’s different from your referring physician or specialist's information) including name, address, and phone number
  • The name, address, and phone number of any specialist you’ve seen (if that specialist is different from either your primary care physician or referring physician)
  • Your health insurance information including name on the policy, employer of policy holder, policy number, birth date of policy holder, insurance subscriber ID and your insurance company’s customer service/provider inquiry phone number
  • Your Social Security number and date of birth
