Public Health accepts referrals from professionals or individuals by online submission, phone, fax or mail.
Online submission via DocuSign This version is recommended for senders without secure email. DocuSign is secure and fully HIPAA compliant. It also allows you to easily save a copy of the referral in your system.
To begin, click “Start” for the Referral Source information page.
Click “Next” for second and third pages, Client Information and Client's medical provider information.
Click “Next” again for a summary which you can print or save as a PDF for your records.
Click “Next” again. You will see "Preparing Document," click the agree statement and “Continue” button and sign the referral. (Your signature is only to make the process work; you may print or download the form at this point, too).
Click “Finish” and you will see a thank you message that means the referral has been submitted securely to us at publichealth@bloomingtonmn.gov.
General Tips
Include detailed information about the reason for the home visit or the client's resource needs. A more complete form will help us better meet an individual’s needs.
Email or fax a discharge summary or other relevant medical information as appropriate, along with the completed referral form. (Bloomington Public Health does not have access to Epic or any other external electronic medical records.)
