Medical Release
I request that the Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) make a decision about my problem with EYEXAM. I request that the DMHC review my Cancellation of Health Coverage Grievance Form to determine if my grievance qualifies for the DMHC’s Consumer Complaint process. By signing and dating below, I authorize my providers, past and present, to release my medical records and information to review this issue. These records may include medical, mental health, substance abuse, HIV, diagnostic imaging reports, and other records related to my grievance. These records may also include non-medical records and any other information related to my grievance. I authorize the DMHC to review these records and information and send them to EYEXAM. My permission will end one year from the date below, except as allowed by law. For example, the law allows the DMHC to continue to use my information internally. I can end my permission sooner if I wish by sending a written request. All the information that I have provided on this sheet is true.

The California Department of Managed Health Care is responsible for regulating health care service plans. If you have a grievance against your health plan, you should first telephone your health plan at (888) 439-3392 and use your health plan's grievance process before contacting the department. The Plan also has a TDD line (949) 364-1289 for the hearing impaired. Utilizing this grievance procedure does not prohibit any potential legal rights or remedies that may be available to you. If you need help with a grievance involving an emergency, a grievance that has not been satisfactorily resolved by your health plan, or a grievance that has remained unresolved for more than 30 days, you may call the department for assistance. You may also be eligible for an Independent Medical Review (IMR). If you are eligible for IMR, the IMR process will provide an impartial review of medical decisions made by a health plan related to the medical necessity of a proposed service or treatment, coverage decisions for treatments that are experimental or investigational in nature and payment disputes for emergency or urgent medical services. The department also has a toll-free telephone number (1-888-466-2219) and a TDD line (1-877-688-9891) for the hearing and speech impaired. The department’s internet website www.dmhc.ca.gov has complaint forms, IMR application forms, and instructions online.
