Your client and their family members should read this section carefully and if they don t understand any point, they should ask for further information. Your client/client s family members s rights 1. They can authorise the disclosure of the doctor s report without asking to see it. The report will then be sent directly to us by the doctor. Should they give their consent to the disclosure of a report without indicating their wish to see it, your client can change their mind by contacting their doctor before the report is sent to us, in which case they will have the opportunity to see the report and ask the doctor to change the report or add their comments before it is sent to us, or withhold their consent for its release. 2. They can give their consent but ask to see the report before it is sent to us. If your client does this they should contact their doctor within 21 days of sending the request to him/her.

Your client s doctor is entitled to withhold some or all of the information contained in the report if, in their opinion, this information (a) might cause serious harm to their physical or mental health or that of another person, or (b) it would reveal the identity of another person without their consent (other than that provided by a healthcare professional in their professional capacity in relation to their care).
