HIPAA Compliance and Your Privacy

As a healthcare provider, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of your health information in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This policy describes how we handle your Protected Health Information (PHI) and your rights regarding that information.

Use and Disclosure of PHI: We use and disclose PHI for treatment, payment, and healthcare operations purposes, and as required or permitted by law. We will obtain your written consent before using or sharing your PHI for purposes not covered by this policy.

Your Rights Over Your PHI: HIPAA provides you with several rights regarding your health information, including the right to access, amend, and receive an accounting of disclosures of your PHI. You also have the right to request restrictions on how we use and disclose your PHI, although we are not required to agree to these restrictions.

Patient Consent and Authorization: We obtain patient consent for treatments and healthcare operations as part of our commitment to your privacy. For uses and disclosures beyond treatment and operations, we will obtain your explicit authorization, which you may revoke at any time, except to the extent that we have already taken action relying on the consent.

Data Security and Electronic Health Records (EHR): We implement stringent security measures to protect electronic health records and ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your PHI. Our electronic systems are designed to comply with HIPAA’s security regulations, including encryption, access controls, and audit controls.

Comments and Contact Forms: Any comments or messages sent through our website may be checked for spam and handled in a manner consistent with this privacy policy. We limit the collection of PHI through our website and ensure that any such information is transmitted securely.

Cookies and Analytics: Our website uses cookies and analytics tools to improve user experience and website functionality, not for collecting PHI. Any health-related information collected through our website is done with your consent and protected in accordance with HIPAA.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy: We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices and service offerings. Notices of amendments will be posted prominently on our website.
