The information authorized for verbal release may include protected health information related to mental health. Release
of mental health records or psychotherapy notes may require consent of the treating provider or a court order.
The information authorized for verbal release may include drug/alcohol abuse treatment records. This category of
medical information/records is protected by Federal confidentiality rules (42 CFR Part 2). The Federal rules prohibit
anyone receiving this information or records from making further release unless further release is expressly permitted by
the written authorization of the person to whom it pertains or as otherwise permitted by 42 CFR Part 2. A general
authorization for the release of medical or other information is not sufficient for this purpose. The Federal rules restrict
any use of the information to criminally investigate or prosecute any alcohol or drug abuse Member. As a result, by
signing below I specifically authorize any such records included in my health information to be released.
