    Not only that, they’re supposed to double-check your name and date of birth to make sure the paperwork wasn’t switched for spme reason

      Yup. I go to an office run by Mayo. Introductions from anyone entering the room go like: “How are you? Good? Good. Can I get your last name and date of birth?”

      They look down at whatever piece of paper they’re holding and make sure it matches. I figure it helps prevent all kinds of accidents.
