Transcription of SAMPLE DISCHARGE LETTER FOR NON-COMPLIANCE …
1 SAMPLE DISCHARGE LETTER FOR NON-COMPLIANCE August 1, 2016 John Doe 123 Sesame Street Midland, VA 12345 Chart # 67890 Dear Mr. Doe: I am writing to DISCHARGE you as a patient from our practice. We are taking this action because you have been non-compliant. You have failed to return our phone calls, failed to get lab work done, and missed your last three appointments. This makes it very hard to provide your ongoing care, and it is unfair to other patients who are waiting to be seen. We will see you for emergency care if needed, but only until September 1, 2016. This will give you time to find another physician to provide your ongoing care. We will send a copy of your records to your new provider. I do not enjoy discharging patients, but I hope my doing so prompts you to take more responsibility for your health. I wish you the very best. Sincerely, Steve Richardson, MD Cc: patient chart
