Allina Hospitals And Clinics Form PDF Details

The Allina Hospitals and Clinics medical records authorization form is a HIPAA-compliant document that allows patients and authorized representatives to request the release of protected health information (PHI) from Allina Health facilities. This form is required whenever you need Allina Health to share your medical records with another party, including other healthcare providers, insurance companies, attorneys, or yourself.

Patients use this form for a variety of purposes: continuing medical care with a new provider, obtaining personal copies of health records, supporting insurance claims, fulfilling legal requirements, and meeting employment-related health documentation needs. Authorized representatives such as legal guardians, power of attorney holders, or personal representatives of deceased patients may also complete this form on behalf of the patient.

The authorization covers a wide range of medical documents: clinic and hospital record sets, billing records, radiology images, laboratory and pathology reports, immunization and allergy records, discharge summaries, progress notes, and specialized records such as mental health records, substance use program records, and genetic counseling records. You can specify exact date ranges and choose your preferred delivery method, whether by electronic means, mail, fax, or pickup.

The form complies with Minnesota state law and federal HIPAA privacy regulations. Authorization typically remains valid for one year unless you specify a shorter period or revoke it in writing. Once records are released, Allina Health cannot control subsequent redisclosure by the recipient. For similar forms, see the United Healthcare release of information form, the Aspen Dental health information release, or the medical records request form.

Directions for Completion of Form

Patient Information: Complete the entire section which identifies clearly and legibly all of the demographic information specific to the patient (individual about whom information is being requested)

Release My Medical Records From: Check the first box if you would like your records released from an Allina Health facility/provider. Check the second box if you are requesting your records be released from a non-Allina Health facility/provider. When checking the Allina Health option, please specify the specific Allina Health location you are seeking information from. Please be specific in your request. For example, United Hospital, St. Paul, MN; Buffalo Hospital, Buffalo, MN; Allina Medical Clinic Shoreview, Shoreview, MN. If you do not identify a specific hospital or clinic (e.g. Allina Health), records may be provided from ALL Allina Health hospitals or clinics where you have received care. Please see allinahealth.org/medical records for a listing of Allina Health hospital and clinic locations and addresses.

Send My Medical Records To: Identify the full name/business, address, phone and contact information with the name of the individual who is to receive the information. Please allow 7-10 days for all requests to be processed and sent to the recipient.

Purpose For Release: Please identify why you need a copy of your record. This helps us to track and assign a priority status to your request. It also informs us who may be responsible for the cost of records (where appropriate).

Information to Be Released: This section gives us the instructions for what information you want released. If you select “Clinic Record Set” or “Hospital Record Set”, we will disclose the pertinent documents that are specific to that type of patient care visit. This is typically what doctors’ offices, hospitals or other health care providers need to provide information related to your care. If you select “any and all” records, your entire record will be provided for a specific visit date or all dates. It is very helpful if you identify the date or range of dates, needed by the requestor. Please note record types listed in the Special Disclosure Permissions section must be checked in order for them to be released.

Release Method: This tells us how you would like your information delivered. If you wish to view information prior to selection of documents, please identify this on the authorization form and we will contact you to set up a viewing appointment. Please note that viewing appointments are done at the Allina Health Corporate Office in Minneapolis. If you wish information about you to be shared verbally or for an authorization to be on file for others to have access to your medical information, please write this in this section (example: form on file for access by my husband upon his specific request). Please note: there are size limitations when emailing records.

Duration of the authorization, revocation and other information you need to know: This authorization will automatically expire in 12 months unless you include a different date. You may indicate the authorization is valid “5 years”, “10 years”, but there needs to be an ending date (do not use terms such as “lifetime” or “forever”). The authorization can be revoked by your written direction to our organization.
