2. 
To Select a physician from Kid Kare, do I need to fill out paperwork before I deliver the baby?
No, we do not require any paperwork prior to your baby’s arrival.  When you deliver the baby, the hospital will ask who your pediatrician will be, and you give them the physician’s name at that time.  The hospital will contact our office.  At this time you may download the registration forms on the download forms section and fill out the forms in the convenience of your home.
3. 
What is the office policy on vaccinations?
At Kid Kare we firmly believe in vaccinating every child. We want to know that your child is protected the best way possible. While your child is too young to receive the vaccine, we want to know that the other children in the office will not carry an unnecessary illness to your child.
4. 
Will I be able to make changes to the vaccination schedule?
Yes, this is a personal decision between you and your physician.

How do you transfer medical records to and from your office?
To have medical records transfered to us, request the records from your current pediatrician, asking them to forward them to Kid Kare Associates. To have your records sent from our office to another office, we need a signed release from the parents requesting the transfer that includes the child's name, date of birth, address, parent names and where you would like the records tranfered to. We use an outside copy service and there will be a fee. Call the office for more information.
