treatment related to your claim. Take a moment to verify the doctor answered all

All the above answers and statements are true and complete and correctly recorded. I read and understand the
appropriate Fraud Warning. I understand that the furnishings of forms by the company does not constitute an

For residents of New York: any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other
person files an application for insurance or statement of claim containing any materially false information, or conceals
for the purpose of misleading, information concerning any fact material thereto, commits a fraudulent insurance act,
which is a crime, and shall also be subject to a civil penalty not to exceed five thousand dollars and the stated value of
the claim for each such violation. The Internal Revenue Service does not require your consent to any provision of this

This authorization complies with the HIPAA Privacy Rule, and it’s
required for all claims. A copy of this authorization will be considered
as valid as the original.
Note to claimant/personal representative:
This authorization must be signed for us to receive medical
records under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”). Although we may
not need to obtain medical records to process your claim, we must obtain this form to avoid possible delays
if medical information is needed.
I authorize all physicians, medical practitioners, hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, pharmacy benefit managers,
long term care facilities (including assisted living facilities), home health care entities and other medical care
institutions, medically related facilities, medical or hospital service and prepaid health plans, employers and
group policy holders, contract holders and benefit plan administrators, state and federal governmental
agencies (including law enforcement agencies), Social Security Administration, Internal Revenue Service and
Veteran Administration facilities, coroners, medical examiners and any other person or entity that has any
health information relating to the insured/patient named below (collectively, the “Providers”) to disclose the
entire medical record
and any other protected health information concerning the insured/patient to the
Transamerica Financial Life Insurance Company and/or Transamerica Life Insurance Company (the
“Companies”), their affiliates and reinsurers, and any business associate, agent, employee, representative,
investigator, benefit plan administrator, consumer reporting agency (including MIB, Inc. formerly known as
the Medical Information Bureau) or independent claim administrator acting on behalf of any of the
Companies (the “Permitted Recipients”). This authorization includes release of any oral, written, or
electronic information, records, documents, or knowledge concerning any medical care, medical advice,
diagnosis, treatment or supplies, including psychiatric or mental health records (excluding psychotherapy
notes), prescription drug information, substance abuse records, medical records, medical notes, and medical
recordings. This authorization also consents to disclosure of information on the diagnosis or treatment of
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases, to the extent
permitted by state law.
By my signature below, I acknowledge that any agreements the insured/patient has made to restrict his or
her protected health information do not apply to this authorization (e.g., they are temporarily revoked only
as to this authorization) and I instruct the Providers to release and disclose the
entire medical record of the
insured/patient and any other of their protected health information as noted above
without restriction.
The information disclosed is for the purpose of claims processing, including but not limited to evaluating
contestability, eligibility determination, and/or benefit determinations by the Permitted Recipients.
This authorization shall remain in force for 24 months, or in the case of long-term care or disability claims for
the duration of the claims under such policy, whichever is longer, following the date of my signature below. I
understand that I have the right to revoke this authorization in writing, at any time, by sending a written
request for revocation to the Companies at Attention: Consumer Affairs Department, 4333 Edgewood Road
NE, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52499. Alternatively, I may revoke this authorization by sending a written revocation
directly to the Providers with a copy sent to the Companies. I understand that a revocation is not effective to
the extent that any of the Providers has relied on this authorization or to the extent that the Companies have
relied on a signed authorization or have a legal right to contest a claim under an insurance policy or to
contest the policy itself. I understand that any information disclosed pursuant to this authorization may be
subject to redisclosure by the recipient and may no longer be protected by federal regulations governing

privacy and confidentiality of health information (such as the HIPAA Privacy Rule). However, the
Companies will protect the privacy of health information in accordance with other applicable state and/or
federal privacy laws and their own privacy policies. I understand that I have a right to receive the Notice of
Health Information Privacy Practices and a copy of this signed authorization upon request.
I understand that Providers that are subject to the HIPAA Privacy Rule (not including the Companies) may
not refuse to provide treatment or payment for health care services because I refuse to sign this
authorization. I do understand that if I refuse to sign this authorization to release the entire medical record
of the insured/patient, the Companies may not be able to proceed with claims or eligibility processing or
make any benefit payments. I acknowledge that (1) if I am signing on behalf of the insured/patient, I am
legally permitted to do so as the personal representative of the insured/patient, and (2) I have received a
copy of this authorization.
