Words from Our Patients

"From the front desk to when you walk out the door, everyone at Brio has been selected by a criteria the Partners have always held to. We (my wife and I) recommend tends of people to Brio and have been since 2017. When I go there, it doesn’t feel like the doctor, it feels like I know them, they care about me, and they keep my healthy. One thing I have learned in life is that if a ship runs well, it is because of the captain, and Dr. Renfrow and Dr. Greene run that ship well."

Jocelyn is delightfully refreshing. When I go in there, she puts down her computer, gives me a hug, and takes the time to get to know me personally . . . No matter how busy it is, everybody is always happy to help. You can walk into Brio sick and still have a good time.

Questions About My Care

What do I do if I need medication refills?

Brio asks that you follow the below steps in order to refill your medications.

First, before you call our office, please call your pharmacy to confirm whether or not they have a refill on file.

If you are taking ADHD medications and your prescription says "0 refills," it is because state law requires ADHD medications to be sent as separate refills.

If you have called your pharmacy, and they do not have your refill(s) on file, and you have not been seen in the past 6 months, please give us a call at 864.603.5600 or Live Chat us and we will get you scheduled for a follow-up visit. At that follow-up visit, we will be able to refill any medications you are out of! If you have called your pharmacy, and they do not have your refill(s) on file, and you have been seen in thr past 6 months,  please give us a call at 864.603.5600, Live Chat us, or send us a web message and we will be happy to assist you!

Why do I have to be seen for medication refills?

There can be medical risks associated with taking prescribed medications. Your Provider feels it is in your best interest to have periodic follow-ups in order to monitor and assess next best steps for your care before writing another prescription.

What is the turnaround time for prior authorizations?

The average turnaround time for medication and imaging prior autorization is two weeks.

How long does it take for X-Ray results to come back?

X-Ray results have a turnaround time of 24-48 hours.

How long does it take for lab results to come back?

Lab results have a turn around time of 5-7 business days.


There are two ways for you to review your labs:

1. As soon as they are resulted before the provider reviews them, your labs are posted to your Visit Summary. To access, log into the Healow App -> Click Visits -> Select Past Appointment where labs were drawn -> Choose Visit Summary -> Scroll Down to Results Section

2. Once your Provider has reviewed your labs, they can be accessed in the Results section of the app. To view, log into the Healow App -> "Access Your Health Records" and Click View -> Results -> Click View Specific Lab Results

Do I need to fast for labs?

You do not need to fast for any labs unless specified by your Provider. If you are unsure, give us a call at 864.603.5600.

When should I expect a callback from a Brio nurse?

We pride ourselves in getting back to our patients as soon as we can. You can expect to hear back from a Brio team member within 48-72 business hours depending on the need.

Your call will be answered by the Prisma Nurse Triage team. We partner with Prisma Health to provide you with urgent care after hours.

Are you able to accommodate non-English speaking patients?

Appointment Details

Am I going to be seeing my primary care Provider at my appointment?

It is our goal to schedule each patient with their primary care Provider. If a patient's Provider is out of the office or their Provider's schedule is full, we may schedule an appointment with another Provider to ensure our patients are seen in a timely manner. We pride ourselves on having seamless care for all of our patients, regardless of which provider they are seeing.

What is the difference between an Routine Care, Curbside Care, Same Day Care, and a Televisit? Will I still be able to receive testing and treatment?

Routine Care, Curbside Care, Same Day Care, and Televists are some of the many ways we offer easy and convenient care for our patients. Our team may offer one or more of the appointment types as a result of the urgency and reason for your visit, Provider availability, and patient preference.

Can I walk in to be seen at Brio Same Day Care?

Unfortunately, all of our Same Day Care visits are by appointment at this time. Please give us a call at 864.603.5600 or Live Chat us to schedule an appointment.

Is my New Patient Appointment considered a physical?

A New Patient Appointment is not a physical, but rather a time for your Provider to assess your previous medical history, any current medications and concerns, and establish a foundation for future care. You will be asked to schedule a physical following your New Patient Appointment.

Can I fill out paperwork ahead of my appointment?

Yes! We offer some of our paperwork on our website, so that you are able to complete it prior to your appointment. Please note, we do not have all paperwork available on our website, and you may be asked to complete more upon arrival to your appointment.

Billing & Insurance

How do I know if Brio is in network with my insurance?

We advise you reach out directly to your insurance provider to confirm whether or not Brio is in network with your insurance.

What services does my insurance cover?

Every insurance plan is unique. We recommend contacting your insurance carrier to discuss covered services.

Why do I have a copay for my preventive visit?

If you come to Brio for a preventive visit (or physical) and discussed additional concerns with your Provider, they are required to bill a code for an office visit to address the problems or concerns. Your copay will be put towards the bill for the office visit portion of your visit.

Why was my initial visit not billed as preventative?

Your initial appointment at Brio Primary Care is our New Patient Appointment, which is a time for your provider to assess your previous medical history and develop a plan for future care. Since this is a non-preventative office visit, but rather a time for your provider to get to know you and how to treat you moving forward, it is not billed as preventative care.

Why am I getting a bill from Labcorp?

While we draw and conduct labs in our office, we are required to send certain tests to Labcorp, a third party lab service.

If I am Self Pay, how much is my appointment?

At Brio Primary Care we offer a Self Pay discount. A Good Faith Estimate is provided prior to the appointment so you are able to bring funds to pay at the time of service. Please note, a minimum payment of $100 will be collected at the time of service.

When are statements sent out?

Following your appointment, you will receive a text and/or email with your statement and instructions on how to pay.

Late Cancel & No Show Policies

What should I do if I am running late to my appointment?

If you are running late to an appointment, please give us a call at 864.603.5600 to let us know you are on your way. We will do our best to accommodate you.

Do you have a late policy?

We ask that patients arrive for their scheduled appointments at least 15 minutes in advance to park, get checked in, and complete any paperwork if needed. Patients who arrive after their appointment time may be asked to reschedule.

Does Brio have a late cancel or no show policy?

We understand that things come up and you may no longer be able to attend a scheduled appointment. In order to avoid any fees, we ask that you let us know at least 24 hours in advance by calling us at 864.603.5600 or Live Chatting with us on our website. We would be happy to reschedule you at that time!

If you cancel your appointment within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment time, a $25 fee will be added to your account balance.

If you do not show up for a scheduled appointment, there will be a $50 fee added to your account balance.

Providers

What is the difference between a Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner, and Physician?

The primary difference between a Physician and a Physician's Assistant/Nurse Practitioner is the number of years of training. Our Physician's Assistants and Nurse Practitioners work closely with our Physicians to provide you with the best care possible.

Can a Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner see me for the same issues as a Physician?

Physician Assistants (PAs), Nurse Practitioners (NPs), and Physicians are all medically trained professionals. PAs and NPs can see patients for the majority of the same issues as a Physicians. Our PAs and NPs work closely with our team of Physicians to provide our patients with the best medical care.

If I establish care with a Provider, am I able to transfer my care to another Provider?

In order to provide you with the best care possible, we recommend that you continue your care at Brio with the initial Provider with whom you establish care. However, we recognize the importance of the Provider-Patient relationship, and want you to feel you are matched with the best Provider. If you have questions about switching to a different primary care Provider at Brio, please call our office at 864.603.5600.

Which of your Providers are accepting New Patients?

On the Provider page of our website, you are able to view all of our Providers at both our Bella Grove (Greenville) and Harrison Bridge Road (Simpsonville) locations. An "Accepting New Patients" message below their name and photo will indicate whether they are currently accepting New Patients at this time.

Do you have a male provider who is currently accepting New Patients?

While we are constantly looking to grow our team of Providers as Brio grows, we currently only have one male provider and he is no longer accepting New Patients. To see a full list of our other wonderful Providers who are accepting New Patients, please visit the Providers page on our website.

Am I going to be seeing my primary care Provider at my appointment?

It is our goal to schedule each patient with their primary care Provider. If a patient's Provider is out of the office or their Provider's schedule is full, we may schedule an appointment with another Provider to ensure our patients are seen in a timely manner. We pride ourselves on having seamless care for all of our patients, regardless of which provider they are seeing.

Patient Portal

How do I get to the Patient Portal?

Patients can access the Patient Portal once they are web enabled. To become web enabled, please be sure to select this option in your New Patient Packet. Once web enabled, patients can access the portal two ways:

1) The "Patient Portal" button in the top corner of our website
