Please provide me with a breakdown of all charges, dates of service, and procedures given including fees associated. Additionally, I am allowed under the HIPAA law ( Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ), to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I have not given you permission to access my credit profile and you have no permissible purpose by law to contact third parties with my private or personal information. You do not have any permissible purpose of furnishing my personal information to any third party.15 USC 1681b Permissible purpose of consumer reports IN GENERAL Subject to subsection ( c ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

This offer is valid for 14 days from the date of receipt, after which it will be withdrawn and I will exercise my right to full verification.I am aware that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patient 's authorization, therefore my request is twofold and as follows.
