Authorization and your rights
I authorize the named releasing provider or organization to disclose the information selected above to the named recipient for the purpose I selected. For “Obtain Information from,” the named organization is the disclosing party and PNW Wound Specialist LLC is the recipient. For “Release Information to,” PNW Wound Specialist LLC is the disclosing party and the named organization is the recipient. I may choose one or both directions.
This is voluntary. Refusing to sign does not affect treatment, payment, health plan enrollment, or eligibility for benefits. I may revoke this authorization in writing by contacting PNW Wound Specialist LLC at 509-209-9033 to arrange secure delivery. Revocation does not undo actions already taken in reliance on it.
Information received by a recipient may be redisclosed and may no longer be protected by HIPAA; other applicable confidentiality laws may still protect it. This form does not authorize disclosure of psychotherapy notes or records protected by 42 CFR Part 2. Any required separate authorization or consent must be completed first. It does not authorize use of Part 2 records in proceedings against me.
This authorization expires one year after the date signed, unless I enter an earlier date below. I am entitled to a copy of my signed authorization. If a representative signs, staff must verify the representative’s legal authority.
