Oregon Release and Authorization is a document used to document the authorization of the release of confidential information. This authorization can be used to allow an individual or entity access to an individual's confidential information, such as financial records, medical records, or credit reports. There are two types of Oregon Release and Authorization documents: 1) The general release of information, which allows an individual or entity access to an individual's confidential information without providing specific details about the information that will be released; and 2) The restricted release of information, which requires an individual or entity to provide specific details about the confidential information that will be released. The Oregon Release and Authorization document must be signed and dated in order to be considered valid.
