317:35-13-4. Release of medical information

[Revised 11-03-09]

When a SoonerCare member or an authorized representative of a member, applies for services, explicit consent is given for the OHCA to release information to applicable state or federal agencies, medical providers, or an OHCA designee when the information is needed to provide, monitor or approve medical services or obtain payment of those services. Additionally, a physician may release medical information to the member or an authorized representative of the member upon written request. The physician, in such instance, would be governed by the physician-patient relationship.
