What are the three patient identifiers?

  1. Date, time, location

  2. First name, last name, date of birth

  3. First name, last name, last 4 number of SS, DOB

  4. Insurance details

The correct answer is: First name, last name, last 4 number of SS, DOB

The correct answer is C. First name, last name, last 4 numbers of Social Security (SS), and date of birth are the three patient identifiers required to accurately identify a patient before a phlebotomy procedure. These identifiers ensure that the correct patient is receiving the correct medical treatment or procedure. Options A, B, and D do not encompass the three essential patient identifiers needed for proper patient identification in a healthcare setting.
