Diagnostic Procedure / Service

I hereby consent to the performance of the diagnostic procedure(s) identified above, including any preparatory care, specimen collection, radiographic imaging, contrast administration, and clinically indicated ancillary procedures. I understand that the nature and purpose of the procedure, the expected benefits, and reasonably anticipated risks and discomforts have been explained to me.

Risks include, but are not limited to, allergic reaction to contrast agents, infection at the site of specimen collection, bleeding, radiation exposure (if applicable), inaccurate or nondiagnostic results, and the possibility that additional testing will be required. Alternatives and reasonable expectations have been explained, and no guarantee has been made as to the outcome or diagnostic yield.

Authorization for Release and Exchange of Information

I authorize the release and exchange of my protected health information, including diagnostic images, reports, and related records, to the ordering provider, referring facilities, and other healthcare professionals involved in my care for the purpose of diagnosis, treatment, payment, and healthcare operations. This authorization includes disclosure of information related to communicable diseases, mental health treatment, and substance use disorder treatment when such information is necessary for continuation of care.

This authorization is voluntary. I understand that I may revoke this authorization in writing at any time except to the extent that action has already been taken in reliance on this authorization. Unless revoked, this authorization will expire on the date specified below or upon completion of the diagnostic episode.

Financial Responsibility and Assignment

I authorize direct billing to my insurance carrier when appropriate and assign benefits to the performing facility to the extent allowed by my plan. I understand that I am ultimately responsible for all charges for services rendered that are not paid by my insurer, including co-payments, deductibles, and non-covered services. I agree to provide accurate insurance information and to notify the facility of any changes.

HIPAA Privacy Acknowledgment

I acknowledge that I have been offered or received a copy of the facility's Notice of Privacy Practices describing how my health information may be used and shared. I understand my rights under applicable privacy laws and that I may request restrictions on certain uses and disclosures, which the facility will consider in accordance with law.

Specimen Handling and Records

I consent to the collection, temporary retention, testing, storage, and disposal of specimens obtained in the course of diagnostic testing. Specimens may be used for clinical testing, quality assurance, or, with additional authorization, research. The facility will maintain records in accordance with applicable law.

Revocation, Withdrawal, and Certification

I understand that I may withdraw or revoke this consent at any time by submitting a written revocation to the facility's medical records department, except to the extent that action has already been taken in reliance on this consent. I certify that the information I have provided is complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge.
