The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA") protects your sensitive and personal health information. This information cannot be disclosed to anyone else without your prior authorization. When the time comes to provide you with a little extra help, your loved ones may need your records. They cannot get them unless you authorize them to. That's why a HIPAA Release is so important.

The HIPAA Release provided by GoGo Estate is super simple. In fact, it's only a page long. The HIPAA Release states that your medical providers may disclose protected health information to your trustee(s), personal representative(s)/executor(s), agent(s), and other important persons designated by you. This allows all of these individuals to make proper course of treatment decisions for you and ensure that you are protected in the event of an emergency.

All GoGo Estate plans include a HIPAA Release. At the very least, you should consider purchasing a Health Care Declaration under our Protection Plans page.
