They are reviewing potential changes to the way data is collected - no details yet but my fingers are crossed that they'll come up with a way that doesn't require so much staff interaction at the clinic while trying to see patients. In the meantime we'll continue to try and figure out how we can actually make this happen before the end of the year. Who knows! Maybe COVID will be gone by then! Yep. Optimist.....at least some of the time.
