Which of the following pieces of information must be included in the patient profile?

  1. DOB

  2. Emergency contact

  3. Employment status

  4. Insurance provider

The correct answer is: DOB

In a patient profile, it is essential to include the patient's date of birth (DOB) because it is crucial for verifying the patient's identity and ensuring accuracy in dispensing medications. The DOB helps to differentiate between patients with similar names or other identifying information, reducing the risk of medication errors. While including emergency contact, employment status, and insurance provider in the patient profile can be beneficial, they are not mandatory pieces of information required by law to be included in the patient profile.
