How To Make a Medical Release Form

There are two main types of medical release forms, one that allows a doctor to see your medical records and the other that authorizes care for a child or other dependent relative in the event of injury or illness that occurs away from home.If you aren't available for medical care, a medical release form will ensure that your child is treated.

Step 1: Permission to access your medical history and records can be given in a document.

Your written consent is needed for doctors to access your medical history.

Step 2: If you have a Social Security number, you can type or print it.

Step 3: I authorize the release of my medical records and history on the piece of paper.

"Then name the doctor or facility requesting your medical records."

Step 4: If you want to release only a limited amount of information, you should write your release so it is specific to a certain medical condition or a specific period of time.

It is possible to make a release for all of your health care information.

Step 5: Private information should be kept private.

If you authorize the release of your history of sexually transmitted disease, including AIDS or HIV, a section on the paper will be created.If you authorize release of treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, write a second section.
