ASSIGNMENT OF INSURANCE BENEFITS, RELEASE, & DEMAND

I, the undersigned patient/insured knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally assign the rights and benefits of my automobile Insurance, a/k/a Personal Injury Protection (hereinafter PIP), Uninsured Motorist, and Medical Payments policy of insurance to the above health care provider. I understand it is the intention of the provider to accept this assignment of benefits in lieu of demanding payment at the time services are fendered. I understand this document will allow the provider to file suit against an insurer for payment of the insurance benefits or an explanation of benefits and to seek §627.428 damages from the insurer. If the provider's bills are applied to a deductible, I agree this will serve as a benefit to me. This assignment of benefits includes the cost of transportation, medications, supplies, overdue interest, any premium reimbursement and any potential claim for common law or statutory bad faith/unfair claims handling. {f the insurer disputes the validity of this assignment of benefits then the insurer is instructed to notify the provider in writing within five days of receipt of this document. Failure to inform the provider shall result in a waiver by the insurer to contest the validity of this document. The undersigned directs the insurer to pay the health care provider the maximum amount directly without any reductions & without including the patient's name on the check. To the extent the PIP insurer contends there is a material misrepresentation on the application for insurance resulting in the policy of insurance being voided, rescinded, or canceled, |, as the named insured under said policy of insurance, hereby assign the right to receive the premiums paid for my PIP insurance to this provider and to file suit for recovery of the premiums. The insurer is directed to issue such a refund check payable to this provider only. Should the medical bills not exceed the premium refunded, then the provider is directed to mail the patient/named insured a check which represents the difference between the medical bills and the premiums paid.

Disputes: The insurer is directed by the provider and the undersigned to not issue any checks or drafts in partial settlement of a claim that contain or are accompanied by language releasing the insurer or its insured/patient from liability unless there has been a prior written signed settlement agreed to by the health provider (specifically the office manager) and the insurer as to the amount payable under the insurance policy. The insured and the provider hereby contests and objects to any reductions or partial payments. Any partial or reduced payment, regardless of the accompanying language, issued by the insurer and deposited by the provider shall be dene so under protest, at the risk of the insurer, and the deposit shall not be deemed a waiver, accord, satisfaction, discharge, settlement or agreement by the provider to accept a reduced amount as payment in full. The insurer is hereby placed on notice that this provider reserves the right to seek the full amount of the bills submitted. If the PIP insurer states it can pay claims at the optional permissive fee schedule then the insurer is instructed & directed to provide this provider with a copy of the policy of insurance within 10 days. Any effort by the insurer to pay a disputed debt as full satisfaction must be mailed to the address above, after speaking with the office manager, and mailed to the attention of Office Manager per §673.3111.

EUOs and CMEs: If the insurer schedules a compulsory medical examination or examination under oath (hereinafter “EUO”) the insurer is hereby INSTRUCTED to send a copy of said notification to this provider in advance of the notice being sent to the insured/patient. The provider or the provider's attorney is expressly authorized to appear at any EUO or CME set by the insurer. It is hereby demanded that at least 10 days prior to any CME that the insurer provide this healthcare provider with a list of exactly what exams and tests the CME doctor will perform. See Schagrin v. Nacht, 683 So.2d 1173 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996). This assignment applies to both past and future medical expenses and is valid even if undated. A photocopy of this assignment is to be
considered as valid as the original. | agree to pay any applicable deductible, co-payments, or services rendered after the policy of insurance exhausts and for any other services unrelated to the automobile accident.

Release of information: ! authorize this provider to: furnish an insurer, an insurer's intermediary, the patient's other medical providers, and the patient's attorney via mail, fax, or email, with any and all information that may be contained in the medical records; to obtain insurance coverage information (declaration sheet & policy of insurance) in writing and telephonically from the insurer; request from any insurer all explanation of benefits (EOBs) for all providers and non-redacted PIP payout sheets; obtain any written and verbal statements the patient or anyone eise provided to the insurer; obtain copies of the entire claim file, the property damage file, and all medical records, including but not limited to, documents, reports, scans, notes, bills, opinions, X-rays, IMEs, and MRIs, from any other medical provider or any insurer. The provider is permitted to produce my medical records to its attorney in connection with any pending lawsuits. The insurer is directed to keep the patient's medical records from this provider private and confidential. The insurer is not authorized to provide these medical records to anyone without the patient's and the provider's prior express written permission. This medical records authorization is intended to comply with HIPAA and shall remain in effect for the duration of any lawsuits which may be filed to collect PIP benefits.

Demand: Demand is hereby made for the insurer to pay all bills within 30 days without reductions and to mail the latest non-redacted PIP payout sheet, the insurance coverage declaration sheet and the policy of insurance to the above provider within 15 days. The insurer is directed to pay the bills in the order they are received. However, if a bill from this provider and a claim from anyone else is received by the insurer on the same day the insurer is directed to not apply this provider's bill to the deductible. If a bill from this provider and claim from anyone else is received by the insurer on the same day then the insurer is directed to pay this provider first before the policy is exhausted. In the event the provider's medical bills are disputed or reduced by the insurer for any reason, or amount, the insurer is to: set aside the entire amount disputed or reduced; escrow the full amount at issue; and not pay the disputed amount to anyone or any entity, including myself, until the dispute is resolved by a Court.

Certification: I certify that: I have read and agree to the above and have asked questions regarding any provisions I did not understand; I have not been solicited or promised anything in exchange for receiving health care; I have not received any promises or guarantees from anyone as to the results that may be obtained by any treatment or service; and I agree that I shall review all medical records to insure that all treatments reflected on said records were provided and I also agree that the provider's prices are reasonable, usual and customary.
