HIPPA Notice of Privacy Practices
The Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA) is a federal law designed to protect your privacy whenever your health care providers have to discuss your health-related information (including your “protected health information” as defined by HIPPA) and may need to share this information such as visits to the doctor or hospital, medical conditions, prescriptions, biometric data, and other health related information. Good Plans Pediatric Care may share the details of your personal health information for purposes of treatment, payment, and other health care operations. The Nurse practitioner may share information with your health insurance company if needed. We have to keep a file to record our visits- but we promise that the private, protected health information in it will be kept confidential. Good Plans Pediatric Care will never share or disclose your protected healthcare information without anyone without the client’s express and written permission.
You have four rights under HIPPA:
-
Access: you can ask the provider to see all the patient health information she has about you
-
Amendement: you can ask the provider to change her files to amend inaccurate PHI
-
Disclosure Accounting: you can ask to whom the provider has given your PHI
-
Restriction Request: you can put limits on the provider’s use of your information
Our duty under HIPPA is to give you this notice so you understand we have promised to keep your private health information confidential. If we change this notice in the future, we’ll give you a new copy.
