As you know, it is important for us to get complete and

accurate information of all of the family’s health care events.

I’d like you to take a few minutes to look at several lists of

health care providers, to be sure we haven’t missed any visits

or calls, including those made just for advice, prescriptions,

tests, shots, or x-rays. Please be sure to include any visits

or phone calls to a health care provider that you haven’t told

me about that were related to any health conditions we may have

already discussed.

These next questions ask about the different medical and

dental care anyone in the family has received {since (START

DATE)/between (START DATE) and (END DATE)}. It is sometimes

hard to remember dates accurately so take your time. You might

want to look at any calendar you may keep, checkbook, or

receipts to help you remember. We are interested in any type of

visit or call, including those made just for advice,

prescriptions, tests, shots, or x-rays. Also include any visits

or phone calls to a health care provider that were related to any

conditions we may have already discussed.
