This HIPAA Release Form Sends your Medical Records Away from Our Office

Because your teen's medical records are confidential, this HIPAA Release Form is needed to forward records to any place outside my office.  (There are certain exceptions provided in the HIPAA Privacy Guidelines.)

Good News!  If all you need forwarded is an Immunization Record, parents / legal guardians or patients over 18 can simply call the office.  Give us phone permission to print it for your personal records or forward it anywhere you wish.  We will do that for FREE.

HIPAA Release Form Costs

The Texas State Medical Board allow physicians to charge for records in certain conditions.  If you complete the release and ask records to be forwarded to another healthcare provider, there is no charge.

Under certain conditions, we may charge for records if they are sent to any entity other than a healthcare entity.
