Item	Explanation

I (we) understand that failure to answer any or all of the questions maysign the authorizations will result in the above-named individual being denied enrollment in Job Corps. I (we) authorize the Job Corps to receive from doctors, dentists, mental health professionals, clinics, hospitals, or other sources, medical information from the health records of the above-named individual regarding the specific conditions identified in any question in section 8 or 9 of this form to which a “yes” response has been provided. I understand that this form does not authorize Job Corps to ask for any records regarding any other health conditions. I also understand that Job Corps is asking for these records to determine (1) the health needs of the above-named individual; (2) whether he/she needs a specific type of extra supports (known as reasonable accommodations) to participate in Job Corps; and (3) whether he/she has a health condition that would pose a direct threat to the individual or others if he/she participates in Job Corps. I (we) authorize Job Corps to provide the above-named individual with an ENTRANCE MEDICAL EXAMINATION that includes blood testing to identify conditions such as anemia, syphilis, and HIV infection; and urine testing to identify conditions such as diabetes, nephritis, and pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, and to screen for the unlawful use of controlled substances. I (we) authorize Job Corps to provide the above-named individual with a CURSORY ORAL INSPECTION and a MANDATORY ORAL EXAMINATION that includes x-rays and checking the teeth, gums, and tissues of the mouth for disease. I (we) authorize Job Corps to provide the above-named individual with basic routine health care and emergency health care while he/she is enrolled in the Job Corps program. The types of care that are considered “basic routine health care” are listed in the Policy and Requirements Handbook. I (we) authorize Job Corps to provide the above-named individual with basic oral care, which may include procedures such as teeth cleaning, fillings, and extractions that will relieve pain and help prevent or decrease dental problems. I (we) understand the reasons for the medical and oral examinations and health testing and have had the opportunity to ask questions. I (we) authorize Job Corps to provide the above-named individual with all immunizations that Job Corps determines are necessary for that individual. I (we) authorize Job Corps to administer a skin test for tuberculosis to the above named individual. I (we) certify that the information that has been provided on this medical form is true and complete to the best of my (our) knowledge. I (we) understand that any false statement or dishonest answers may be grounds for separation from Job Corps for the above-named individual. I (we) understand that protected health information will only be released in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, any other applicable federal laws (see discussion below), and the current Job Corps Privacy Rule Authorization and Notice. All disability-related or other medical information that is contained in this health questionnaire, or that is obtained through the authorizations contained in this document, will be collected and maintained separately from other information regarding the applicant offered enrollment, and will be kept strictly confidential.  This information will only be disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the Department of Labor’s regulations. The confidentiality requirements expressed in the above paragraph are separate and different from the confidentially requirements for health information imposed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).  Under the Department of Labor’s regulations related to discrimination on the basis of disability, the disclosure of medical and disability-related information about a particular individual is only permitted in accordance with those regulations, even if a recipient, such as a Job Corps contractor or center operator, obtains a signed release form explicitly authorizing disclosure that is or would be inconsistent with those regulations.
