All patients must obtain a Referral before
they can be admitted to Central Georgia Rehabilitation Hospital.
A referral may come from a patient's attending physician;
primary care physician; insurance company representative;
or hospital discharge planner (e.g. social worker, nurse or
case manager). Inpatient referrals may also be made by individuals
or family members.
Following a referral for rehabilitation, a social worker or
discharge planner will coordinate the referral process. Every
referral is carefully considered on an individual basis.
Patients who need intensive rehabilitation should be referred
as soon as they are medically stable and able to participate
in an active rehabilitation program. Applicants for admission
should demonstrate the potential to reach rehabilitation goals
within a reasonable time period.
Inpatient Referral Applications may be forwarded by mail or,
for maximum efficiency, healthcare professionals may make
direct referrals through our Referral Line at: 478-201-6630
or by fax to 478-757-0835.
Families are encouraged to visit us for a tour of the hospital
and an explanation of the rehabilitation process. Individual
tours may be arranged by calling 478-201-6630.
We accept Medicare, Medicaid as well as private insurance
and managed care reimbursement. Patients or their families
may contact the Business Office to make inquiries regarding
insurance coverage or billing. The office is open weekdays
during regular business hours.
