Release of Information Forms:
There are 3 different types of Release of Information (ROI)
- Release of information to allow Student Health to share information with other required clinical sites during the course of the student’s education at Upstate. Limited information shared includes immunization status and/or titers, results of TB screening tests, and dates of annual health assessment and mask-fit testing, if required. Completion of this ROI is required for all matriculated students and is usually done prior to starting classes at Upstate. This form can be accessed by our health portal at http://eshportal.casabo.net.
