New Patients
We are very glad you are considering us as your primary health care office. Here are a few important items to remember when first scheduling your appointment with us.
In order to become a new patient, you will need to acquire a UNC Health Care Medical Record number. To do this you will need to follow these instructions:
-
Contact our Customer Call Center locally at (919) 966-1234 or toll free at (866) 595-3175 between the hours of 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Monday – Friday.

Our automated system has the option to select English or Spanish.
-
Select the option to obtain a New Medical Record Number (MRN).
-
If it has been a long time since you were seen at UNC Health Care and you do not remember or have your Medical Record Number (MRN), please advise the representative of this so a thorough search can be done prior to assigning a new number which may not be necessary. Make sure that any name changes that have occurred are addressed as well.

If you are not able to bring your insurance card with you, and we cannot verify your insurance with your insurance company, we may need to re-schedule your appointment or ask you to pay $70 at the time of check-in, at least until we can confirm your insurance coverage. Please remember that you are ultimately responsible for your bill.
