32 Miss. Code. R. 22-3.10.2

Current through October 31, 2024
Section 32-22-3.10.2 - Hospital/Other Medical Records

Medical information from the records of a hospital, clinic, or a physician should be obtained when it:

* will assist the counselor in establishing eligibility

* is needed/helpful in assessing the client's medical history, current status, and/or prognosis for employment

When requesting medical records, the counselor should contact the vendor to determine whether an independent copying service is involved. (This would be particularly true for larger hospitals.)

If hospital, clinic, or physician has charges for summaries or copies of records, an authorization form may be issued for the amount established by the Agency Fee Schedule. In most instances, you should enclose Consent to Disclose Information Form.
