My wife completed the medical exam and was told to come back in a few days later to pick up her results. She did so today and got the sealed envelope (plus a complementary copy for herself). She then heard from a friend that the clinic also offers electronic transmission directly to the consulate, though they didn't offer it to us. Is one better than the other? Should we have specifically asked them to do electronic transmission? I assume it doesn't really matter one way or another, but we want to make sure we do things the right way as the interview gets closer. Any thoughts?

Replying to myself. The consulate replied to my email and said either way is fine, no preference.
