Acknowledgment of Limits to Confidentiality

    I, the undersigned Injured Worker, acknowledges understanding that the psychological evaluation to be conducted by a psychologist with Weinstein & Associates, Inc. is considered confidential evaluation by Weinstein & Associates. However, this evaluation will produce a report that will be sent to the referring party only, who is considered the client, who will then release the report to whomever that party deems appropriate. The undersigned acknowledges that the purpose of the evaluation is to determine psychological status relative to the work injury. The Injured Worker further acknowledges that this evaluation will be conducted via Telemedicine. This evaluator utilizes the HIPAA compliant telemedicine platform of Zoom.
     
    The undersigned also is aware that he/she is not a client of Weinstein & Associates, Inc., that Weinstein & Associates, Inc. is not responsible for his/her mental health care and that the evaluation in no way implies that the Injured Worker is receiving treatment for any mental health issues from Weinstein & Associates, Inc. The Injured Worker further acknowledges understanding that at a future point in time, should he/she begin a counseling relationship with Weinstein & Associates, Inc., he/she would become a client of Weinstein & Associates, Inc. which would then be responsible for his/her mental health care and would provide ongoing treatment for those mental health issues. In that relationship, the client would hold all confidentiality rights, as set forth in a separate Informed Consent form as well as in a HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices form.
