Problem: Yesterday (yes... the day prior to this exam) your patient's insurance company called to ask questions about your patient's diagnosis of Major depressive Disorder, Recurrent. They are requesting to speak with you about the patient's progress. Since you have a release of information signed July 1, 2011 specifically allowing you to answer insurance questions about diagnosis, the best thing for you to do it: Select one: a. Check with the insurance company to be certain they have a release from the patient b. Since you have a valid signed release of information, the ethics require you to speak with the insurance company on behalf of the patient c. Discuss this with the patient d. Release only what is being asked for by the insurance company
