Can a "walk-in" patient participate?
Yes.
PATIENT PARTICIPATION
If a patient has already signed a consent form with a participating physician, must he consent again if he wants another participating physician to have access to his data?
It is not necessary to obtain consent for a patient who has already signed a consent form if both physicians practice in the same clinic. If the patient has signed a consent form with a physician from a different clinic, a second consent form must be signed.
Will patients under the age of 18 be able to participate?
Yes, if a parent or guardian signs the consent form.
