Identity Theft Protection

The Red Flag Rules are an Identity Theft Prevention Program designed to take reasonable measures to detect, prevent, and mitigate identity theft in connection with the opening of a covered account or any existing account. As a result, Orthopaedic Associates of Duluth, P.A. will now require the following information from all patients to ensure the identity of the person being seen:

  1. Drivers License or state issued form of identification with picture
  2. Proof of Insurance
