Answer:

No it shouldn’t be released to her

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs lynn olsen is requesting the lab results of her husband, tim. She has a note, signed by him, giving his permission for her to have the records. This isn’t the protocol as a formal document by the hospital which contains the appended signature is what should be presented before medical records are released to third parties.
