A HIPAA authorization form is a document required under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) that allows a healthcare provider to release your protected health information (PHI) to a specified person or organization.
Under 45 CFR § 164.508, a valid HIPAA authorization must include: a description of the information to be disclosed, who may disclose it, who may receive it, the purpose, an expiration date, the right to revoke, and the individual's signature.
Yes, HIPAA permits electronic signatures on authorization forms, provided the signature method complies with the ESIGN Act. CanUSign provides a legally compliant electronic signature with a full audit trail.
