Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, you do not need a referral. You can schedule an appointment without a referral, but a member of the Cutchins Cardiovascular Medicine team will reach out to you to obtain prior records and more information about your condition prior to your visit.

  • No. All visits are by appointment only to ensure each patient receives the time and attention they need.

  • We do not accept insurance. This allows us to maintain our care model and offer the time, access, and attention for our patients. You may use a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Savings Account (FSA) for eligible expenses. You may also use out of network benefits for reimbursement of office visit and imaging costs. We have partnered with Sheer Health to assist patients with this process. Click here for more information.

  • We are happy to see Medicare patients, but unfortunately, Medicare will not allow for reimbursement for out-of-network services and therefore, you are responsible for the full cost of your care. 

  • At Cutchins Cardiovascular Medicine we value in person care. This allows us to get to know our patients and their needs and to provide services like imaging, EECP, IV infusions etc. We also understand it can be hard to travel to the doctor for care and do see patients over telehealth. Dr. Cutchins is licensed in the following states: NY, GA, CO, TN, OH, PA and WI.

  • For new patients and initial follow up visits Dr. Cutchins has marked off 90 minutes of her time. We recommend coming 45 minutes prior to the office visit in order to do adequate intake and orthostatic vitals. The after visit checkout process is estimated to take 15 minutes. So an initial or first visit follow up should last about 2 hours and 30 minutes.

    A regular follow up visit has been marked off as 45 minutes of Dr. Cutchins' time. We recommend arriving 45 minutes before your visit for intake.

  • Pateints are required to arrive 45 minutes prior to their allotted visit time slot for intake.

  • Patients should arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled time slot for any appointment that is not with a provider.

  • All emergencies should be handled with 911 or in the emergency room. Members will be given several methods to contact our team for urgent or non urgent matters.

  • We do not provide primary care and ask that our patients have an independent primary care physician for their routine care and urgent visits.
