A medical assistant is submitting an urgent referral request to an insurance company for authorization. Which of the following describes how long the authorize process will take?

A. Apply the patch with sterile gloves. Sterile gloves are not required when applying a transdermal patch; clean, non-sterile gloves are sufficient to avoid contamination.
B. Apply the new patch in the same location as the old one. Transdermal patches should be rotated to different sites to avoid skin irritation, so applying the new patch in the same location is not recommended.
C. Write the date and time on the patch with each application. Writing the date and time on the patch is essential for tracking when the patch was applied and when it needs to be changed, making this the correct action.
D. Reinforce damaged patches with adhesive tape. Damaged patches should not be reinforced with tape, as this could alter the drug's delivery. Instead, the patch should be replaced.

A. Attention line: The attention line directs the letter to a specific person or department and does not serve as a greeting.
B. Inside address: The inside address includes the recipient’s address and is placed before the salutation but does not serve as a greeting.
C. Signature block: The signature block is where the sender signs the letter and provides their name and title, not the greeting.
D. Salutation: The salutation is the part of the letter where the writer greets the recipient, such as “Dear Dr. Smith,”.
