We have our patients fill out a confidential communication form listing persons we are allowed to release PHI to.
Patients never list their primary care doc.............however we ALWAYS send letter to referring doc (usually pcp) stating our visit with patient and findings.
My question is are we allowed to do this? Should we add pcp to our forms?
