  • If you call and no one answers, please leave a message and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

  • If HRA has not contacted the patient within 48-72 hours after receiving the patient's referral, please have the patient contact HRA. Once we have the patient's consent and the patient's contact information we will engage with them in the creation and management of their treatment plan.
