When I walked into the orthodontist I was asked to sign a “consent to treat a minor” form. This office has seen my son every two weeks for three months but just now they suddenly need permission?
The office can easily blame the government. Every time I sign a form I am giving up a piece of my freedom or the freedom of my children. I am nauseas about it.
After I left the orthodontist, I went to the eye doctor for myself. Well, it had been so long since I’d been that my records had been purged and I had to fill out a book about myself most of which matters not one iota to my eye health. It was pure digging. I left a lot blank and completed the form in as sloppy handwriting as possible.
I have some of the form to share. Not all, because it would share too much on the world wide web.
I’m known for being sassy on forms. This was no exception.
Ha! Well, you make form filling interesting…and fast
I always put “Domestic Engineer” for my occupation, no one has ever questioned it either….maybe one day I’ll have the opportunity to really twist someone’s mind.
I hate going in for anything medical, for this very reason. It’s totally insane some of the things they ask! I also don’t give SS numbers, and no one has “required” me to do so yet either. Intrusive much of this is, and very unnecessary.
I agree! Avoid when possible and NEVER give out SSNs. They are NOT required for medical billing nor insurance.
LOL, I also have taken to writing “Domestic Engineer” on forms that ask for my occupation. Alternatively I’ll list “Domestic Goddess”, if I’m feeling particularly sassy that day. And I will agree that I never provide SS#s on patient admitting forms… and I retired from a career as a health care provider myself! Haha!
I love your sassy forms. “The things that usually kill people”, LOL, I think I’d have been chuckling as I wrote that in!
