A HIPAA Waiver is a legal document that authorizes the release of your medical information and records to third parties of your choosing.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a series of rules and regulations that prevent anyone from accessing your medical information without your express written consent. It’s a series of privacy rules to protect your information.

You have the ability to make your HIPAA waiver as broad or narrow as you want. You can authorize specific doctors or entities, or you can create it for a specific period of time such as when you are facing a medical procedure.
