What should a CART provider do with confidential information heard during a private medical appointment?
Answer: Keep it strictly confidential
CART providers must preserve the confidentiality of all information gained during an assignment.
After an event, a hiring entity requests an edited transcript. How does it differ from the realtime file?

An edited transcript is cleaned up after the session to correct mistranslates and formatting.
Which item is most important to include on a CART invoice?
Answer: Date, times of service, rate, and any agreed fees
Invoices document billable service details without revealing confidential content.
A student asks the CART provider to explain a concept the professor just covered. What is the appropriate response?
Answer: Encourage the student to ask the instructor, since tutoring is outside the CART role
CART providers do not tutor or interpret content; they provide communication access.
Which is the best way to indicate in CART text that a speaker is reading from a document?
Answer: Use a parenthetical such as (Reading) before the text
A parenthetical like (Reading) informs the consumer of the context without editorializing.
Before a CART assignment, what should the provider and consumer ideally agree on regarding the display?
Answer: The consumer's preferred font size, colors, and screen placement
Display preferences such as font, contrast, and placement ensure the text is accessible to that consumer.
How should a CART provider handle profanity spoken by a speaker during a session?
Answer: Write it as spoken, since CART conveys what is said
CART aims to convey speech faithfully, so the provider does not censor speakers.
