Do Insurance Companies Look At Psychiatric Records? 
I can answer on behalf of disability insurance companies Yes , disability insurance carriers to ask to look at your psychiatric and counseling records if they see that youve answered yes to seeing a counselor on your application . For anyone who says no , but something pops up on their script check , they will ask for the records at that time as well . Its common for a psychiatric release form to be included with a HIPPA in the initial application . Please note that having seen a counselor or psychiatrist does not mean that youll have a mental health exclusion , but depending on your history and the records , its a possibility .
