EPISCOPAL COUNSELING CENTER POLICY STATEMENT
I understand that I am consenting to treatment or testing, have read the policy letter, and that my records will remain with the Episcopal Counseling Center.

I authorize the Episcopal Counseling Center to release any necessary information to expedite insurance claims if they are being filed on my behalf. I understand that it is customary to pay for professional services when they are rendered, that I am responsible for all charges, regardless of insurance coverage, and that my account may be turned over to a collection agency if payment is not made.

I also understand that unless I give 24 hour notice to cancel an appointment, I will be financially responsible for a charge of $50 for a missed appointment (regardless of insurance coverage). There is an answering service (or machine) available to leave a message if the office is closed, and emergency situations can be discussed with my therapist.

We understand that personal problems are very difficult to talk about. That is why confidentiality is extremely important to us. We take every precaution in protecting the confidentiality of your visit with us. WE DO NOT DISCUSS YOUR SITUATION WITH ANYONE EXCEPT FOR THE REASONS CITED BELOW, UNLESS YOU GIVE US WRITTEN PERMISSION TO DO SO. The State of Florida requires that the Episcopal Counseling Center inform you that under the following three (3) circumstances, confidentiality will be breached:

  1. If we learn about child, adolescent or elder abuse or abuse of disabled adults, we are required by law to report it to the proper authorities
  2. If, in our judgment, a client is dangerous to himself or others (suicidal or homicidal), we will disclose information in order to help protect persons from harm
  3. If we are required to present records or witness testimony, to comply with a court order, it is our legal responsibility to comply.

This provides a safe and secure opportunity for you to discuss personal problems with us. If supervision is required by your therapist, client information will be released only to the supervisor.

I have read and understand all of the above and I have received a copy of the HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.

Please let us know if you would like a copy of this page
