HEALTH HISTORY

FAMILY HISTORY

To the best of my knowledge, all of the preceding answers and information provided are true and correct. If I ever have a change in my health, I will inform the doctors at the next appointment without fail.

Broken Appointment and Confirmation Policy Agreement

We enforce the two (2) broken appointment policy meaning that after 2 broken appointments within a twelve (12) month period, we will no longer schedule that patient, any adult/child living in the same residence, or any adult responsible for a child’s medical/dental/behavioral health treatment for one year from the date of the second broken appointment.

It is the responsibility of the patient (or parent/guardian, in case of a child) to notify the clinic any time they will not be available for their appointment, at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled appointment.

As a patient of the medical/dental/behavioral health clinic it is your responsibility (or parent/guardian, in case of a child) to confirm your appointment. We make every effort to call and confirm your scheduled appointment the morning prior to the appointment. However, without confirmation from you, we will remove
your appointment from the schedule and consider it a broken appointment.

Please make sure that your phone number is correct on your file and if your phone number changes you must contact the medical/dental/behavioral clinic to advise us of the change or again, we may cancel your appointment resulting in a broken appointment if we are unable to reach you.

Release of Medical/Dental/Behavioral Health Information

It is the provider’s responsibility to ensure that the provider-patient relationship is confidential. Under the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) we are not allowed to release any patient information without the patient’s consent. If you wish to have your medical/dental/behavioral health or billing information released to a family member, friend, or legal representative, you must sign this form.

Consent for Treatment

I hereby authorize PanCare Health, its facilities and treatment centers, its affiliated providers, dentists, dental hygienists, ARNPs, physician assistants, psychologists, social workers and other medical personnel to administer examinations and treatments as deemed medically necessary.

Non-Covered Insurance Services

I understand that I am financially responsible for any charges not paid by the insurance and that the insurance is filed as a courtesy. I understand that the insurance co-pays are estimated and are not a
guarantee of benefits. I also confirm that I will pay for any charges that will be incurred due to having a non-covered service performed.

Advance Directives

I understand that I have the right to have an advance directive.

We encourage all patients to complete an advance directive, which allows you to state your preferences for medical treatments and to select an agent or person to make your health care decisions in case you are unable to do so or if you want someone else to make decisions for you. Further information on advance directives is available on our web site www.pancarefl.org.

If you already have an advance directive, please bring a copy with you at your next visit. Your advance directive will be placed in your medical record. However, PanCare is not set up to make a medical determination as to the cause of an emergent situation that may present and/or occur at any of our clinics. In the event of an emergent situation, our staff will call 911 and defer the advance directive protocol to the acute hospital setting.
