  • NEW PATIENT INFORMATION FORM

  • Please read this form carefully! If you do not understand something to your satisfaction, please ask questions. We will be pleased to explain it :)


    1. I request and authorize the dental treatment and associated procedures for:

  •  - -
  • 2. I understand that treatment for children includes efforts to guide their behavior by helping them to understand the treatment in terms appropriate for their age. Behavior will be guided using praise, explanation and demonstration of procedures and instruments, using variable voice tone and loudness.


    3. I further request and authorize the taking of oral dental x-rays and the use of such anesthetics as may be considered necessary to treat the patient's dental problem(s).


    4. I understand that should the patient become uncooperative during dental procedures with movement of the head, arms and/or legs, dental treatment cannot be safely provided. During such disruptive behavior, it may be necessary for the assistant(s) to hold the patient's hands, stabilize the head and/or control leg movements.


    5. For the purpose of advancing medical-dental education, I give permission for the use of clinical photographs of the patient for diagnostic, scientific, education or research purposes.

  • 6. I have had explained to me by Dr. Mitchel and their associates, and have had sufficient opportunity to discuss the patient's dental condition/problem(s), the planned procedures and treatment, and the benefits, to be reasonably expected from this treatment plan, compared with alternative approaches and/or no treatment.


    7. The usual and most frequent risks or complications occurring from the planned treatment and procedures also have been explained to me. These risks include, but are not limited to, the possibility of pain or discomfort during the treatment, swelling, infection, bleeding, injury to adjacent teeth, and surrounding tissue, development of a temporomandibular joint disorder, temporary or permanent numbness, and allergic reactions.


    8. I understand that during the course of the patient's dental treatment, something unexpected may arise that may necessitate procedures in addition to or different from those listed on the patient's PLAN OF CARE and that I will be consulted prior to initiation of treatment procedures not listed. I am aware that the practice of dentistry is not an exact science and acknowledge that no guarantees have been made to me concerning the results of the dental treatment that the patient receives in the office.


    9. All of my questions have been answered to my satisfaction and I consent to the treatment and procedures prescribed for the patient on the PLAN OF CARE.


    10. I understand that I may revoke this consent to treatment at any time and that no further action based on this consent will be initiated except to the extent that treatment and procedures have already been performed or initiated.


    11. I request and authorize the dental treatment and associated procedures outlined on the PLAN OF CARE.


    12. I confirm that I have read and understand this form or it was read to me, and that all blanks were filled in and all applicable paragraphs, if any, were stricken before I signed below.

  • HIPAA Agreement

  • The Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal program requiring all medical records and other individually identifiable health information used or disclosed by us in any form, whether electronically, on paper, or orally, are kept properly confidential. This Act gives you, the patient, significant new rights to understand and control how your health information is used.

    HIPAA provides penalties for covered entities that misuse personal health information. The following is an experience of how we are required to maintain the privacy of our health information and how we may use and disclose your health information.

    We may use and disclose your medical records only for each of the following purposes: treatment, payment, and health care operations, and when required by law.

    Treatment means providing the coordination or managing health care and related services by one or more health care providers. An example of this would include sending documents to an oral surgeon for a tooth extraction or contacting your pediatrician regarding treatment. Payment means such activities as obtaining reimbursement for services, confirming coverage, billing or collection activities, and utilization review. An example of this would be sending a bill for your treatment to your insurance company for payment. Health care operations include the business aspects of running our practice, such as conduction quality assessment and improvement activities, auditing functions, cost-management analysis, and customer service. We may also create and distribute de-identified health information by removing all references to individually identifiable information.

    We may contact you to provide appointment reminders or information about treatment alternatives or other health-related benefits and services that may be of interest to you.

    The right to request restrictions on certain uses and disclosures of protected health
    information, including those related to disclosures of family members, other relatives, close personal friends, or any other person identified by you. We are, however, not required to agree to a requested restriction. If we do agree to a restriction, we must abide by it unless you agree in writing to remove it. The right to reasonable requests to receive confidential communications of protected health information from us by alternative means or at alternative locations. The right to inspect and copy your protected health information. The right to amend your protected health information. The right to receive an accounting of disclosures of protected health information. The right to obtain a paper copy of this notice from us upon request. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
