To '''sign off''' is when a health care provider or subspecialist decides they no longer need to follow a patient. Historically, every one can '''sign off''' a case except the [[Primary|primary team]] and it typically occurs within 24-48 hours of coming [[On Board|on board]]. However, on April 3, 2017, internist Dr. Carrie Ramirez of Knoxville Medical Center became the first primary provider to '''sign off''' a patient's case. Currently, the patient is not being seen by anyone.<ref>[http://gomerblog.com/2017/04/signed-off/ Jealous of All the Consultants Who Signed Off, Primary Team Decides to Sign Off Too]</ref>
