Get And Sign CONFIDENTIAL MEDICAL HISTORY FORM Cleevedentalcouk Cleevedental Co

Oh, we read them. We base the start of your plan of care on them. As the nurse doing that, I go over everything. The doctor I work for uses it to be sure he covered everything. It's very common to forget something when you have the doctor in front of you. This is my profession and even I do it. We expect you to forget something.Then it gets scanned into your chart, there, forever. I refer back to those forms if, for example, your labs turn up something life threatening and I can't signNow you. Who was that you listed as an emergency contact? Hope it's legible. Heck, I hope it's filled out! ( If it was entered before my time, it might not be. Now, you can't see the doctor without it filled out.)It's so important my practice asks you to re do them every year. Patients hate it, complain about it, loud! But if I had a dollar for every time I couldn't signNow someone in this day and age of fluid phone numbers, why, I'd have several more dogs and we'd all be living somewhere warmer!And…oh, you have another doctor? We didn't know that. And they prescribed what? Did what tests? We don't know if you don't tell us 99.9% of the time. You would be amazed how many patients don't bother to tell their primary care physician such important things like…they went to the ER, had an MRI, see a cardiologist, and..etc and so on. We don't automatically know. We should, but that's another story.Feel that signNowwork is beneath you? Are you too busy to fill it out? I see that every day too. You know what that tells us? That you don't value this very much. That you are so much more likely to be non compliant, not take meds, no show for appointments, maybe fib a little….a lot… your lifestyle choices….how, if you take your meds. I mean, come on, you can't even follow directions to fill out signNowwork! How do you expect us to take you seriously, when from the very start, you don't offer us the same courtesy.If there are any doctors out there, not reading these things, shame on you. But in 30+ years, I have not seen it. As for the doctor asking you about it, well, mine works very hard to get it right. And even the most earnest patients forget something.

I’m not an attorney or at all familiar with employment laws in Illinois, so my answer is more a comment than a direct answer to the question.At the federal level, the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commmission had the following to say on the subject.[1]An employer may not ask a job applicant, for example, if he or she has a disability (or about the nature of an obvious disability). An employer also may not ask a job applicant to answer medical questions or take a medical exam before making a job offer.An employer may ask a job applicant whether they can perform the job and how they would perform the job. The law allows an employer to condition a job offer on the applicant answering certain medical questions or successfully passing a medical exam, but only if all new employees in the same job have to answer the questions or take the exam.Once a person is hired and has started work, an employer generally can only ask medical questions or require a medical exam if the employer needs medical documentation to support an employee’s request for an accommodation or if the employer has reason to believe an employee would not be able to perform a job successfully or safely because of a medical condition.There appears to be a line on exactly what type of medical related questions can or cannot be asked, but I can’t comment on permissible or forbidden questions with any authority.Footnotes[1] Pre-Employment Inquiries and Medical Questions & Examinations

“How do you feel about landlords that require you to fill out an app prior to seeing the rental property? My daughter is a CO, has a perfect rental history, and a very high credit score. We ran into this while she looks for a rental.”I have a certain sympathy for landlords. It isn’t an easy way to make a living. You have huge capital tied up in immobile investments. One destructive tenant can wipe out the profits from 20 good ones.If you want a landlord who will show the property without asking questions until and unless you show an interest, you can probably find that. We had that when we rented our first apartment after retiring and selling our house (Liberty Lake Apts in Boise ID - great place BTW, we recommend them). The nice office lady showed us around the complex, and let us inside an empty unit just like the one we eventually rented. (That empty unit was already promised to someone else; the one we eventually rented was still occupied). Then we went back to the office and filled out applications.But anyways, it all comes down to supply and demand in a free market. If you want a landlord who asks no questions, you can find one. Probably a “slumlord” who doesn’t maintain the property and has lots of anti-social, destructive tenants who would make dangerous neighbors. If there is a glut of housing in your market, you can find landlords who bend over backwards to court you. If there is a housing shortage, you have to play by the landlords’ rules.
