    Only New Patient questions appear in the Kiosk. New Patient questions appear only for patients who have not had an exam at your practice in Eyefinity EHR in the past three years.

    If no check boxes are selected in a column, clinical staff are presented with all of the questions. However, if one or more check boxes are selected, clinical staff are presented only the selected questions.
