Reminder: Any orthopedic or other specialty care outside of Yale Health Center requires a referral from your PCP. Yale New Haven Health recently sent a solicitation that included some Yale Health members about utilizing their outpatient orthopedic care center in North Haven. Such a center requires an approved referral for Yale Health members.

Many Yale Health members recently received an unsolicited email from Yale New Haven Health (email address info@m.ynhhs.org) regarding their North Haven walk-in center, offering care for sports injuries, etc. (below is an image of the email). This did NOT come from Yale Health and our members members need an approved referral to use that location.

On February 26, the FDA issued a warning to immediately stop using and discard certain eye ointment products. Although Yale Health Pharmacy does not stock the listed eye ointments for our members, we feel it is important to share this information should they have been purchased at a local retail pharmacy.

The FDA website has detailed information and images of the recalled items.

We are pleased to introduce a new method of communicating care and benefit-related information to our members. In addition to our quarterly newsletter, we will periodically send Member Updates via email containing help for issues we hear patients facing. We’ll use this communication tool to share progress on areas of operational improvement, to bring clarity around complex benefit issues, etc.

And please reach out to us for suggestions on improvement and future topics for us to delve into.
