As required by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and Connecticut law, this practice may not use or disclose your individually identifiable health information without your authorization except as provided in our Notice of Privacy Practices.

Release of my medical records to my personal electronic portal authorization. I understand that this health information may include HIV-related information and/or information relating to diagnosis or treatment of psychiatric disabilities and/or substance abuse and that by signing this form, I am authorizing such information to be disclosed. This authorization is effective indefinitely unless revoked in writing.
Please note that ASC employees may discuss payment issues with family members or other personal representatives, including the subscriber of my insurance plan, unless I request special privacy protections. My signature on this form authorizes such financial discussion.

Please initial each statement on line provided:
Under certain circumstances, this office may need to request lab reports, radiology reports, other diagnostic test results, and/or medication history from outside facilities in order to provide treatment. At times these facilities may require an authorization to release such records. My signature authorizes the release of these records.*
Type Initials
I understand that audio and or video recording staff of ASC (including providers) without explicit permission to do so, may result in my being discharged from the practice along with any applicable legal consequences.*
Type Initials
I understand that no procedure provided by this facility is completely without risk and I authorize the care and treatment provided to me under the general or specific directions of my physician or my physician assistant.*
Type Initials
I understand that I will be charged a $25-$125 NO-SHOW fee if I do not show up at my scheduled appointment. In order to avoid the NO-SHOW fee an appointment needs to be cancelled 24 hours prior.*
Type Initials
I understand any office procedures/tests done today may fall under a different insurance benefits classification, therefore may require additional out of pocket cost beyond the office visit fee.*
Type Initials
If this office does not have a contract with my insurance company, payment must be made at the time of visit unless prior arrangements have been made with the office manager. For patients with coverage that we participate with we will file your insurance claims to your primary carrier for all services and procedures we provide. It is your responsibility to secure all referrals and authorizations required by your health plan and to be aware of its coverage and benefits. All charges are your responsibility from the date the services are rendered. I understand that, regardless of my insurance status, I am ultimately responsible for the balance on my account for any professional services rendered. If payment is not received in a timely manner, my account will be turned over to a collection agency. I agree to notify the office of Advanced Specialty Care of any changes to my insurance coverage so that filing my claim is expedited. I understand that any unpaid balances 120 days or older will incur $15 per month late fee.
