Can I change my mind about releasing my medical records after signing an ROI with insurance company?
Good morning or good evening,
I signed up for life insurance and disability insurance with Northwestern Mutual. They are now asking for my medical records related to mental health things. When I talked to the insurance company they said I already signed an ROI so they will be calling to get the information. I informed them that I have to do one with my NP(nurse practitioner) office. That’s when I was told that some doctors are particular about releasing information and if they require their own roi that’s okay. I can fill that out too.
After talking about it with a family member they asked why they wanted medical records for mental health stuff when they had already paid to get blood work done and it was fine. Plus they didn’t want medicinal records from any other doctor. After thinking about it I no longer what to release my medical information to them. I will be telling my NP’s office as well so they know. With that being said can I deny the release of my medical records if I change my mind and signed an ROI with the insurance company?
