Have you been getting allergy shots from another provider? Want to transfer your allergy care to MIT Health?
Here’s how:
Have your current allergist send us the following information from your medical record:
- Your current immunotherapy extract contents, with proper labeling and expiration dates
- Your administration/injection record or flow sheet with administration dates and doses
- Related protocols for shot administration: late dosing, reactions, seasonal holds, and new vial dose adjustment
- Most recent provider visit note
- Your asthma and/or allergy diagnoses as well as skin and/or RAST test results
- A recent pulmonary function test (if available).
