Johns Hopkins Executive Health Program
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)
A. Most appointments are filled 1-2 months in advance of the date of service. We suggest that you schedule as early as possible.
A. Plans are unique and reviewed specifically with each individual patient.
A. The Executive Health Coordinators will assist you in scheduling additional consultations that you may require.
A. You do not pay for services that you do not receive. If you need to speak with your Executive Health physician regarding particular health concerns or desired screening services, let the Executive Health Coordinators know so that a telephone call can be arranged.
A. Ideally, you should receive your itinerary 1-2 weeks before your scheduled visit.
A. You should arrive fifteen (15) minutes before your first scheduled appointment.
A. You should wear comfortable clothing and comfortable footwear, such as running shoes.
A. A full set of Pre-Examination Instructions will be mailed to you with your itinerary. Briefly, you should not eat or drink anything except for water 10-12 hours before your blood work. You will be asked to provide a urine sample. A continental breakfast will be available after your blood work is completed.
A. Because of the anesthesia used for the colonoscopy, the procedure requires an extended and sometimes unpredictable amount of time for the anesthesia to wear off. Thus, it is quite difficult to coordinate on the same day as the full set of Executive Health screening services.
A. Directions are available on the Maps & Directions page online. They will also be mailed to you with your itinerary for the visit.
A. The Executive Health Coordinators will be happy to provide information on hotels in Baltimore conveniently located to The Johns Hopkins Hospital.
A. No, although you will be able to wash up with a damp towel if you wish. It is not medically advised to take a shower immediately after exerting yourself on an exercise stress test.
A. Yes. If you are seen at the Wilmer Eye Institute, your eyes will be dilated in order to perform a complete ophthalmological examination. You will not be able to wear your contacts and should plan to bring your glasses. For about two to three hours after this, your eyes will be sensitive to the light, and you may also prefer to wear sunglasses.
A. You are more than welcome to do so. We have Internet connections available for laptop computers, as well as newspapers and periodicals.
A. You and your personal physician should receive your report within four weeks of your visit.
A. Since the Executive Health Program operates through company and private contracts, we do not bill or collect from any health insurance plan or HMO, nor do we investigate the type of coverage that a patient may hold or what services may or may not be covered by the health care plan. If you are interested, we can provide bills that you may use to file claims with your health plan. If the health plan covers any of the services received in the Executive Health Program, the health plan should make payment directly to you, not the Johns Hopkins providers who rendered services under the program.
A. The invoice prepared on the day of your visit is an estimate of the services received. Your final invoice may reflect additional services requested by your physician and/or a fluctuation in price as mandated by the State of Maryland rate regulation system.
