Informed Consent for Treatment

  • Please do not have your parents sign any of the forms.  If they are obtaining legal guardianship for you after your 18th birthday, we have a different process. Those court documents can be submitted to us via fax to our privacy department at (920) 882-0857.
  • If you are still 17, please wait to sign the documents until your 18th birthday. They will be invalid if they are signed/dated prior to your birthday.
  • Please reach out to us at (920) 750-7000 if you have any questions about this process or need help with the forms. Our call center hours are Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM -4:30 PM
