The person who authorizes the release of medical information is primarily the patient, as established by HIPAA. Patients have the right to control access to their medical information and can specify who can view it.
Releasing patient records without proper authorization violates HIPAA regulations. The form must have a valid signature, date, and purpose of the release of the request. If the patients information is incorrect or incomplete, it may lead to the release of the wrong medical records.
How do I fill out a HIPAA release form? Provide instructions. Name the patient and individual authorized to use or disclose their PHI. Describe the information. Specify recipients. Specify the purpose of disclosure. Specify the time period. Detail their revocation rights. Obtain the patients signature.
If a HIPAA Authorization Form lacks the core elements or required statements, if it is difficult for the individual to understand, or if it is completed incorrectly, the authorization will be invalid and any subsequent use or disclosure of PHI made on the reliance of the authorization will be impermissible.
The request that does not require patient authorization is the one by the patients insurance carrier, as allowed by HIPAA for certain operations. The request that would NOT require a patient authorization for release of the health information is a request by the patients insurance carrier.
