[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are white, so sickle cell isn’t relevant. We are here for a very obvious sports injury requiring a simple X-ray, so ancestry is irrelevant. While I’ve seen questions regarding ethnicity on medical forms at a doctor’s office, those questions are more directly tied to race and language. They asked where my kid was born and what our ancestry is. We have never been asked these questions before in this ER. And yes, it’s a medstar ER. [/quote] Are is question in writing ?[/quote] No, the questions were not in writing. The first person who speaks with people checking in at the er asks. [/quote]
