Access to medical reports Please read this section carefully, as it sets out your rights under The Access to Medical Reports Act 1988 and The Access to Medical Reports (NI) Order 1991. In order to process your application and review any scheme issued, we may need to apply for a medical report from any doctor who has attended you. To apply, we need you to give your consent by signing the declaration below. You can choose from three courses of action: •you can give your consent without asking to see the doctor’s report before it is sent to us. The report will then be sent directly to us by the doctor. Should you give your consent to us obtaining a report without indicating that you wish to see it, you can change your mind by contacting the doctor before the report is sent to us in which case you will have the opportunity to see the report and ask the doctor to change the report or add your comments before it is sent to us. Alternatively, you can withhold your consent to its release. •you can give your consent, but ask to see any report before it is sent to us, in which case you have 21 days after we notify you that we have requested a report from the doctor, to contact the doctor to make arrangements to see the report. If you fail to contact the doctor within 21 days, he will be entitled to send the report directly to us. If you do contact the doctor asking to see the report, you must give the doctor written consent before he can release it to us. You may ask the doctor to change the report if you think it is misleading. If the doctor refuses, you can insist on adding your own comments to the report before it is sent to us. This does not prevent you from applying to other companies for insurance. •you can withhold your consent but, if you do, please bear in mind that we may be unable to accept the application. Whether or not you indicate your wish to see the report before it is sent, you have the right to ask the doctor to let you see a copy, provided that you ask him within six months of the report having been supplied to us. If you ask for a copy the doctor can charge you a reasonable fee to cover the costs of supplying it. The doctor is entitled to withhold some or all of the report if (a) he feels that it may be harmful to you or (b) it would indicate his intentions in respect of you or (c) would reveal the identity of another person without their consent (other than that provided by a health professional in their professional capacity in relation to your care). The medical report your doctor fills in asks about the following: •your current health •any care, medication or treatment you are currently receiving •the results of referrals or tests you are waiting for •any time off work in the last three years •your past health •details of any relevant illness, trauma, or referrals for specialist advice or treatment, hospital admissions, consultations with your GP or any other medical adviser, therapist or counsellor, in particular whether you have a history of; •malignancy (cancer), cardiovascular (heart) disease, diabetes, and degenerative (gradually worsening) diseases •musculoskeletal disease or injury, for example, arthritis, rheumatism, back problems or any other disorder of the joints or muscles; •anxiety, depression, neurosis (such as phobias, obsessions and so on), psychosis (a mental disorder where you lose contact with reality), stress or fatigue; • suicidal thoughts or attempts at suicide; or •conditions related to drug or alcohol misuse or smoking or chewing tobacco; •details of any biopsies, blood tests, electrocardiograms (heart test), height, weight if measured in the last two years, urinalyses (tests on urine), X-rays or other investigations •any blood pressure readings in the last three years •any history of disease among your parents or brothers or sisters that you have told your doctor about. We have asked your doctor not to reveal information about: •negative tests for HIV, hepatitis B or C •any sexually-transmitted diseases unless there could be long term effects on your health; or •predictive genetic test results unless there is a favourable test result which shows that you have not inherited a condition your family suffers from The information you and your doctor provide about your health may result in us: •refusing to provide insurance; •increasing premiums above standard rates; or •setting premiums at standard rates. | 17 18 | FAILURE TO DISCLOSE RELEVANT INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS ASKED MAY RESULT IN NON-PAYMENT OF A CLAIM 12a.
