HEALTH INSURANCE & CONFIDENTIALITY OF RECORDS. You should also be aware that your health insurance company may require disclosure of confidential information at times in order to process claims. Only the minimum necessary information will be provided, including diagnosis, the date and length of therapy sessions, and what services were provided. Generally, the billing statement and your company’s claim form are sufficient; however, sometimes more information regarding summaries or progress toward therapeutic goals is required. Although insurance companies claim to keep your information confidential, once it leaves my office I have no control over it.
