228.4 REVOCATION OF DISCLOSURE AUTHORIZATION.
An individual or an individual's legal representative may revoke a
prior authorization by providing a written revocation to the
recipient named in the authorization and to the mental health
professional, data collector, or employee or agent of a mental health
professional, of a data collector, or of or for a mental health
facility previously authorized to disclose the mental health
information. The revocation is effective upon receipt of the written
revocation by the person previously authorized to disclose the mental
health information. After the effective revocation date, mental
health information shall not be disclosed pursuant to the revoked
authorization. However, mental health information previously
disclosed pursuant to the revoked authorization may be used for the
