We will ask for your name and address, and will access your account online. We will then email the user name for your account to the email address supplied upon registration.

When does my subscription start?
Your subscription starts as soon as your payment clears. For subscriptions ordered online with a credit card, this will be as soon as the credit card transaction is complete. For orders mailed or faxed to our Order Department, this will be when your payment is recorded; you will receive e-mail notification when the subscription begins.
How will I renew my subscription?
You will be contacted via e-mail before your subscription expires and you will be able to renew your subscription for another year. Renewals can be entered online or by mailing or faxing them to our Order Department.
How can I evaluate the site before I make a purchase decision?
AccessMedicine no longer offers registered free trials. Instead, the site offers a simple Look Inside Free feature which allows you to examine the breadth of content, use our free features like Diagnosaurus and Health News, search our database, and more!
How private is the information that I supply in my registration form?
The information that you supply is covered by McGraw-Hill's Privacy Policy and is used to provide you with the best possible service for AccessMedicine. For more details on McGraw-Hill's Privacy Policy, please click on the "Privacy Policy" link at the bottom of any screen in AccessMedicine.
Can I share my individual subscription with others?
No. Individual subscriptions are licensed only to the user who purchased the subscription. When you agreed to the Terms of Service Agreement, you agreed to keep your User Name and Password confidential.

How can I cancel my subscription?
You can cancel your subscription up to 6 months after the start of your paid subscription. A cancellation is effective on the last day of the month in which it is received. Refunds will be prorated over the remaining term of the subscription starting with the month after the cancellation notice is given. For example, if you pay for your subscription on January 1 and cancel on May 7, the cancellation will be effective May 31, and you will be refunded for the period June 1 - December 31. For cancellations received after 6 months, there will be no refund. To cancel, contact our Customer Service department at OnlineCustomer_Service@mcgraw-hill.com.
