Reminder Concerning the “Card”
I know I already blogged once on this topic. However, so many patients call and ask about the level of their privacy and the so-called “list”. Here are the facts:
1. The state/county card is OPTIONAL. If a patient chooses for whatever reason to get the card, their name is then on state and probably federal lists. I don’t know that these hurt anything, but I certainly cannot be ok with them
2. The physician letter a patient leaves my office with is all that is required legally or to enter dispensaries.
No “card” means ———–> all is private.
I like my information kept private. That’s good to know! Thanks, Dr. Frankel.
