Giải thích
Informed consent requires the treating provider to explain the nature of the procedure, its risks, benefits, and alternatives, and to answer the patient's questions. A medical assistant may witness the signature and confirm the form is complete, but cannot supply the clinical explanation. Reception staff and insurers have no role in the clinical consent discussion.
