RELEASE OF MEDICAL RECORDS FOR RESEARCH: State law requires us to inform you that your medical records may be released for research purposes unless you object. Occasionally, Obgyn Specialists receives a request for medical or scientific researchers for a copy of our patient records in order to conduct a research study. We evaluate these requests to ensure that the release of patient records is necessary to accomplish the research purpose. The researchers cannot use patient names or other identifying characteristics when reporting any results of their research. By checking the “yes” box, you authorize this release, but may also revoke this agreement at any time by notifying us in writing.
