Using it well

Small habits that make it worth the paper.

Be specific about imaging

Radiograph reports and the original images are different things. Specialists usually need the images; say so on the form.

Know your state’s rules

States differ on who may receive veterinary records and how quickly. Check your state board’s rules on confidentiality and release.

Questions about
this form.

Printing, editing, and what the form does and doesn’t cover.

Do I need a signed form to send veterinary records?+

Many states treat veterinary records as confidential and require the owner’s consent before releasing them to third parties. Requirements vary by state, so check your state veterinary practice act.

Can a pet owner use this form?+

Yes. An owner can fill it in online, print or save it, and send it to their current clinic to request a transfer to a new vet.

How long does the authorization last?+

Until the date written on the form. If it’s left blank, practices commonly treat it as a one-time release.

Should we charge for copies?+

Some practices charge for physical copies or image media. Check whether your state limits fees, and state your policy on the form if you charge.
