Think about the reasons why patients may be uneasy revealing information such as their Social Security number or date of birth. Once you have some reasons in mind, what might you say to a patient who is having just that concern?
What will be an ideal response?
Some patients are nervous about giving out their Social Security number or birthdate because the patient may feel they are at risk for identity theft. To place that patient at ease, the medical office manager can let the patient know that their information is protected, and describe the various ways the protection works (computer passwords, etc.)
