- there has been no new diagnosis, new treatment or new prescribed medication;
- there has been no change in treatment or change in prescribed medication (including the amount of medication to be taken, how often it is to be taken, the type of medication or changes in treatment frequency or type); Exception: i) the routine adjustment of Coumadin or Warfarin, insulin or oral medications to control diabetes, (as long as it is not newly prescribed or stopped); or ii) a change from a brand name medication to a generic brand medication (provided the dosage is not modified);
- there has been no new symptom, more frequent symptom or more severe symptom experienced;
- there has been no test result showing a deterioration;
