# How do I know if a patient has been cleared/ has received a GFE?

## See which indicators we have within the patient profile to know when the patient has been cleared

When a patient has been cleared, what we call the patient's status (the tag next to the patient's name) will change from "To clear" to a green "Medical Exam Current" tag, which means that the patient has been cleared. (see first photo as an example)

Another indicator that the patient has been cleared, is that you will see within the section in the Patient Profile which reads "Indicated Treatments" under "Diagnoses", that there are boxes that show checked, like in the example below. The boxes that have been checked are the services that have been cleared by the physician.

You will also see below the list of services and checkboxes "Reviewed by" and the name of the clearing physician or simply "Portrait".
