4. Follow the instructions and fill in all applicable and required fields. 
5. Once you have completed the Occupational Initial Health Screening form, click Submit.
6. After your initial screening questionnaire is complete and submitted through REDCap, the form is routed to the Industrial Health provider and then a paper-based review is completed by the provider. If you are medically cleared with no restrictions, an email is generated and sent to you and your laboratory supervisor. If you are not medically cleared, an email is generated to you, requesting that you call the providers office to schedule an appointment.
