You do not need to sign this authorization. Refusal to sign the authorization will not adversely
affect your ability to receive health care services or reimbursement for services. The only
circumstance when refusal to sign means you will net receive health care services is if the
health care services are solely for the purpose of providing health information to someone else
and the authorization is necessary to make that disclosure.
You may revoke this authorization in writing at any time. If you revoke your authorization, the
information described above may no longer be used or disclosed for the purposes described in
this written authorization. The only exception is when a covered entity has taken action in
reliance on the authorization or the authorization was obtained as a condition of obtaining
insurance coverage.
