The attending physician agreed to complete the "info pertinent to diagnosis in the event of an emergency" section after analyzing the results of the ordered blood tests. This ensures that the emergency information provided is based on accurate and current health data. The completion will be performed during the scheduled follow-up visit on August 3rd, 2024. |
