Preliminary inquiry pathway
Patient & Family Intake
A careful first step for people considering an independent consulting-physician evaluation in New York.
Private, browser-only screening aid
Preliminary self-check
This anonymous self-check can help you decide whether requesting a consultation may be appropriate. Your answers remain in your browser and are not sent to Baseline or stored by this website. This is not a medical determination, a statutory request for medical aid in dying, or the establishment of a physician-patient relationship.
What happens next
A staged, secure process.
Pending request
If the self-check indicates that a preliminary inquiry may be appropriate, use the secure intake form. The date and time selected there remain subject to staff review.
Administrative review
Baseline reviews fit, timing, and capacity. Acceptance for clinical review is not guaranteed.
Secure portal after acceptance
If accepted, the secure patient portal supports detailed questionnaires, consents, e-signatures, and requested medical-record uploads.
Scheduling and care
The secure patient portal supports scheduling and clinical documentation before any live audiovisual evaluation.
Fees
Transparent self-pay structure.
$850 standard evaluation
$250 initial clinical record review, credited toward the total.
