The prohibition also extends to the completion of any form related to services covered under the Medi-Cal program. This may include sports physical forms for school athletics, physical exam forms for employment, school or preschool enrollment forms, tuberculosis (TB) testing, and health insurance forms. A provider may not charge a member for completion of a form that certifies that a Medi-Cal-covered service was rendered or documents the findings of the covered service. For example, a provider is reasonably expected to complete a physical release form for a child entering a school athletic program, provided that the child is eligible for the service at the time of request. The provider is expected to complete the release form at no charge, qualifying the release with the date of the covered exam. The prohibition does not apply to the completion of forms and services that are not covered under the Medi-Cal program, in a case where the collection of payments is permitted under a contractual or legal entitlement. Providers also retain the right to charge reasonable fees for copying portions of or complete medical records for a member's use (does not apply if the provider is transferring records to another provider).

For medically necessary interperiodic health assessments (MNIHAs), complete health assessments may be performed before the next regularly scheduled physical examination when the following situations exist:
