50. Patient Privacy requires the patient or their legal representative to fill out this form. By submitting this form, you authorize the release of your protected health information (PHI) to us and also to any third party or another affiliated healthcare provider, such as an insurance company, other medical professional, medical imaging clinic, medical analysis clinic, employer, or for legal or billing purposes as may be required.

We have not recommended a specific treatment plan at this point in your care. This consent form is simply an effort to obtain your permission to perform the evaluation necessary to identify the appropriate treatment and procedure for any identified condition(s). This consent provides us with your permission to perform reasonable and necessary medical examinations, testing, and treatment. By confirming below, you are indicating that (1) you intend that this consent is continuing in nature even after a specific diagnosis has been made and treatment recommended, and (2) you consent to treatment at this office or any other satellite office under common ownership. Until you revoke it in writing, the consent will remain fully effective. You have the right at any time to discontinue services. You have the right to discuss the purpose, potential risks, and benefits of any ordered test with your physician. If you have any concerns regarding any test or treatment recommended by your health care provider, we encourage you to ask questions. I voluntarily request a Physician, a mid-level provider (such as a Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant, or Clinical Nurse Specialist), and other healthcare providers or their designees to perform reasonable and necessary medical examinations, testing, and treatment for the condition that has brought me to seek care at this practice. I understand that if additional testing or invasive or interventional procedures are recommended, I will be asked to read and sign additional consent forms prior to the test(s) or procedure(s). I certify that I have read and fully understand the above statements, and I consent completely and voluntarily to their contents.
