All users must also complete a one-time registration on BMJ Learning and subsequently log in (with a BMJ Learning username and password) on every visit.
Furthermore, strict requirements have often been established, making on-time registration difficult.
To identify factors related to on-time registrations of posting of results, I used logistic regression models to generate adjusted OR (AOR).
For paramedical care (i.e., physical, speech and occupational therapy, and social work) the costs per consultation were based on time registration and salary costs of the relevant paramedical disciplines [ 20].

Waiting time on gastroscopy day refers to the duration from the time of registration on the day of the procedure to the time the procedure was performed and was categorized as < ½ hour, ½ - 1 hour, 1 – 2 hours and > 2 hours.
A population-based cardiac registry contains the time of registration on wait lists for CABG and the time of procedure, or removal from wait lists without surgery, for all patients who have been accepted for surgical coronary revascularization in any of the four tertiary hospitals that provide cardiac care to adult residents of BC since 1991 [ 11].
