What is a Medical Authorization Form?

A medical authorization form grants a designated person the authority to make healthcare decisions or access medical records for another individual.

When do you need one?

Use when a child travels without a parent, when caring for an elderly parent, or when designating a healthcare proxy.

Does it need to be notarized?

Some healthcare providers require notarization. Check with the specific institution.

Can you notarize a Medical Authorization Form online in your state?

Yes — in every state. 45 states have enacted their own remote online notarization (RON) laws, and residents of the remaining states can legally notarize online with a commissioned notary in a RON-authorized state; the notarization is valid nationwide under interstate recognition rules. Select your state for its specific requirements.
