By signing below, you hereby consent for this Practice to use or disclose information about yourself (or another person for whom you have the authority to sign) that is protected under federal law, for the sole purposes of treatment, payment and health care operations.

By signing below, you recognize that the protected health information used or disclosed pursuant to this Consent may be subject to re-disclosure by the recipient and may no longer be protected under federal law.
