Medical release forms are used to request that a healthcare provider share a patient's medical history with a third party (employer, insurance company, school, etc.).

Unfortunately, although all release forms must be HIPAA-compliant, there is no standard form. Many health care providers have their own forms, and, if you can plan in advance, you should use the forms of as many of the providers (doctors, hospitals, clinics) that may be involved in the patient's care.

Your authorization allows the Health Plan (your health insurance carrier or HMO) to release your protected health information to a person or organization that you choose.

Release of information (ROI) is the process of providing access to protected health information (PHI) to an individual or entity authorized to receive or review it.

Q: Do I need to notarize the signed form? A: No. The HIPAA Privacy Rule does not require you to notarize authorization forms or have a witness.

The filled out DD form 2870 (Authorization for Disclosure of Medical or Dental Information) is permission to share individual's protected health information to a third party or individual upon authorization for the disclosure for several purposes: - personal use. - insurance. - continued medical care.
