HIPAA – Medical Records Release Authorization


The researchers conducting this study are interested in learning about the experiences of women with cervical cancer prior to and including their diagnosis. To learn more about your personal experiences, we hope that you will allow us to contact your medical providers so that we can review your medical records to learn more about your condition.


We need your written authorization to review your medical records. The medical record reviews will provide data about the medical care you received prior to and including the date of your clinical diagnosis of invasive cervical cancer. We are asking to review your medical records because we would like to obtain detailed clinical information from your healthcare providers about your screening and follow-up visits, like the type of Pap or HPV test, the clinical results, and the type of treatment if any that was done prior to your diagnosis. You are not required to allow us to access your records, but this information can be very important to better understand ways to prevent cervical cancer.


Background on HIPAA

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a federal law. The Privacy Rule of HIPAA went into effect on April 14, 2003. The purpose of this rule is to limit your health care providers’ use and disclosure of your health information. Health care providers are your doctors and the clinics or hospitals where you were diagnosed and/or treated. Protected health information includes your medical history, diagnosis, treatment, and payment information. It also includes identifiable information such as your date of birth. This form describes the information the researchers will ask your health care providers to release. It also explains how we will use that information.


What information would be released?

Records or information related to your screening and treatment up to and including the date of your cancer diagnosis including information on clinical factors, symptoms, therapy, outcomes, and follow-up care of abnormal test results.

Copies of your medical records and medical reports (i.e., pathology or test results) from 5 years prior to and including the date of your cervical cancer diagnosis. The researchers will only collect information related to the cancer.

Research Sponsor: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The Research Sponsor will not have access to any information that could personally identify you.

Members of the Institutional Review Board (IRB). The IRB is a committee of people who review and approve human subjects research studies to make sure that the studies are conducted ethically. The IRB has approved this study. The IRB would only access your records to assure that your information was being protected correctly. The IRB will not have access to any information that could personally identify you.


Your name, address, telephone and social security number(s) and other data that could reasonably identify you will be deleted from your medical record by a designated member of the research study team at the cancer registry before your health information is shared with other members of the research study team, research sponsor, or the Institutional Review Board (IRB).


Limits of this authorization


The research study team and research sponsor may not use the information for purposes other than this study. We will not disclose information to any other persons or entities other than those who are part of the research study team, research sponsor, or IRB as listed above. As indicated, all information that identifies you personally will be removed as required by HIPAA regulations as part of the study protocol.


There are no consequences to you if you refuse to sign this authorization.


How long the information will be used and your right to cancel your authorization

This authorization will expire two years after the completion of the study, mm/dd/yyyy, and all abstraction records will be destroyed. However, you have the right to cancel your authorization at any time. To cancel, you must send a written request that is signed by you or your personal representative.
