Yes — receiving, storage, indication, and documentation templates are part of onboarding. SOPs still have to be adopted as the clinic’s own procedures; we do not pretend to be the medical director in Tampa.
If you operate in Florida and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JN will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Tampa tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
