Common use of Records Request Clause in Contracts

Records Request. In the event you request your record to be sent or picked up, the prorated rate of your provider is charged for time spent preparing, copying, and mailing/emailing your record. Payment is required before the record is sent. ● Record requests are typically able to be handled within 2 weeks of the request. ● NOTE: Please be advised, in the event we receive a subpoena or request for your records, or regarding your child or teen's records, our office staff will contact you to obtain your written consent. In the case of minors, we will require all legal parents/ guardians to provide written authorization prior to releasing any information or a signed Court Order. In addition, if a child or teen has been assured of confidentiality, it is important parents respect that agreement. Having a child or teen’s record released to parents or attorneys can often harm the therapist-client relationship or the parent-child relationship and can disrupt therapeutic gains. We are happy to write treatment summaries upon request if general feedback about a child or teen’s therapy is requested (hourly fees apply). o If divorced or separated parents are requesting a minor’s record (versus accepting a summary or release to a professional), we will release the record to both parents.
