What happens to your patient after a Baseline referral
The full path from first consult to quarterly check-in, so you know exactly what you are sending someone into.
Key takeaways
- The consult comes first, and it can end in lifestyle direction rather than a protocol.
- A medical provider in our network reviews the patient's intake and history before medication is considered.
- Protocols are defined courses with an end date and a scheduled check-in.
- Supplements run through a dispensary set up for the patient so refills stay simple.
First is a consult. It is a conversation about goals, history, and whether a Baseline program is a reasonable fit at all. Plenty of people leave that call with lifestyle direction rather than a protocol.
Next is intake and medical review. A medical provider in our network reviews the patient's intake and history before medication is considered, alongside labs where they are relevant.
If a protocol is appropriate, it is written with a defined course and a defined end. Peptide protocols are prescribed by a licensed provider network and fulfilled through 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies when appropriate. Supplements run through a dispensary set up for the patient so refills stay simple.
Then comes ongoing support: scheduled check-ins, education between them, and a willingness to adjust course when necessary rather than repeat a protocol out of habit.
Step one: the consult
A short consult is enough to tell whether a Baseline program fits the person's goals. It covers history, current state, and what they are actually trying to change. Not everyone leaves with a program, and that is deliberate.
Step two: intake and medical review
Intake collects history, current medications, and labs where relevant. A medical provider in our network reviews the patient's intake and history before medication is considered.
Where the picture is incomplete, the next step is testing rather than a protocol.
Step three: the protocol
A protocol is written with a defined course and a defined end. Peptide protocols are prescribed by a licensed provider network and fulfilled through 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies when appropriate.
Supplements are set up through the patient's dispensary so refills and adjustments stay simple for however long they are needed.
Step four: ongoing support
Check-ins are scheduled rather than reactive, with education between them. Where the response is not what was expected, we adjust course when necessary instead of repeating a protocol out of habit.
What this means for you
When you refer someone, you are sending them into a defined sequence with medical review in the middle of it, not into an open-ended subscription.
