I hereby authorize the release of any health status, conditions, symptoms or treatment information contained in your records that is needed to file and process insurance or medical plan claims, to pursue appeals on any denied or partially paid claims, for legal pursuit as to any unpaid or partially paid claims, or to pursue any other remedies necessary in connection with same. I hereby assign directly to Healthcare Provider all rights to payment, benefits, and all other legal rights under, or pursuant to, any health plan (including, but not limited to, any ERISA governed plan/insurance contract, PPACA governed plan/insurance contract) rights that I (or my child, spouse, or dependent) may have under my/our applicable health plan(s) or health insurance policy(ies).

I hereby also declare that Healthcare Provider is my/our beneficiary regarding my/our health plan as contemplated by both ERISA and PPACA, and that Healthcare Provider can pursue any and all rights that I/we may have under state and/or federal law regarding my/our health plan.
