One office had me sign a document confirming that I had read some policy of theirs. I asked for the policy that I was agreeing that I'd seen. It took several minutes of someone running around the office digging through drawers and file cabinets to find a copy. Obviously almost everyone affirms having seen it when they have not.

Funny enough my doctors office always asks me to affirm if I have read or been told about their policy. I always check "no", and they have never once followed up on that in the many years I have been with them.
