You receive a call from the primary care physician who is treating one of your clients. He has the results of a lab test that he had run last week to determine the client’s level of liver function. He reports that the news is not good and that you should be prepared in your next session to discuss it. Before acknowledging anything, you must have:
  1. A signed consent to release information
  2. A signed consent to receive information
  3. A and B
  4. Neither
Explanation
Answer - C - While so many believe that one form is enough to cover your bases, you need to have consent to exchange information (to and from), rather than only releasing or receiving. It can simplify things to have one form, so long as it allows both.
