NOTE TO CASE MANAGERS, THERAPISTS & PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS

Thank you for choosing Oxford County Mental Health Services to serve your client/patient. The demand for this service is high, and it is extremely important that your client attends their appointment on time.

Our office hours are 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday to Friday. Clients are requested to call 207-739‐7001 if they cannot attend their appointment. Please ensure that your client is aware of the following information:

Co‐pays are due at the time of service.
The client must bring their insurance card to the appointment and a list of the medications they are presently taking.
The client should arrive 10 minutes before their intake appointment is scheduled.
In most cases, if the client does not show for this first appointment, the appointment will not be re‐scheduled.

Referrals may be hand delivered, mailed or faxed to:

Oxford County Mental Health Services – REFERRALS

Rumford, ME 04276
Fax 207-364‐2143

After OCMHS receives your referral, it will be triaged & reviewed. The client will be contacted directly by the Admissions Staff if an appointment is scheduled. To ensure the client’s referral is reviewed, all sections of the form must be completed. If the referral form is not complete and/or your writing cannot be read, it will be returned to you with an explanation stating why you need to fix it or send us a new referral. All information on the referral form is important, but if it does not apply, then please write N/A in that section.

Referral Forms must be accompanied by enough Release of Information forms, signed by the client, for us to contact the other providers/hospitals involved in the case, otherwise the referral cannot be triaged.

Thank you, once again, for choosing Oxford County Mental Health Services as your services provider.
