How can you get a free HIPAA release form?

The best place to get a free HIPAA release form is from a medical provider. Doctor, hospitals and other health-care providers typically have their own release forms that they give patients to complete.

If a patient does not receive a HIPAA release form from her medical provider, she can download one from the Internet. Caring.com has a sample template that users can download and personalize. This form gives health-care providers the authorization to share protected health information with third parties such as relatives, caregivers or other professionals. HIPAA was created to prevent private health information from being shared with anyone who asks to see it.
