Your Health Information Privacy Rights

Learn how your health information is used and shared by your doctor or health insurer. Generally, your health information cannot be used for purposes not directly related to your care without your permission. For example, your doctor cannot give it to your employer, or share it for things like marketing and advertising, without your written authorization. You probably received a notice telling you how your health information may be used on your first visit to a new healthcare provider or when you got new health insurance, but you can ask for another copy anytime.

Royal Life Centers LLC will not release any confidential information without written authorization beforehand. Let your providers or health insurance companies know if there is information you do not want to share. You can ask that your health information not be shared with certain people, groups, or companies. If you go to a clinic, for example, you can ask the doctor not to share your medical records with other doctors or nurses at the clinic. You can ask for other kinds of restrictions, but they do not always have to agree to do what you ask, particularly if it could affect your care.

Finally, you can also ask your health care provider or pharmacy not to tell your health insurance company about the care you receive or the drugs you take, if you pay for the care or drugs in full and the provider or pharmacy does not need to get paid by your insurance company. Ask to be reached somewhere other than home. You can make reasonable requests to be contacted at different places or in a different way. For example, you can ask to have a nurse call you at your office instead of your home or to send mail to you in an envelope instead of on a postcard. (HHS).

You can ask your provider or health insurer questions about your rights at any point. (Health and Human Services.)

Who Can Look at and Receive Your Health Information

The Privacy Rule sets rules and limits on who can look at and receive your health information To make sure that your health information is protected without interfering with your health care, your private information can be used and shared.

Your provider can share your medical information under circumstances such as:

Your treatment and care coordination
Pay doctors and hospitals for your health care and to help run their businesses
With your family, relatives, friends, or others you identify who are involved with your health care or your health care bills, unless you object
Make sure doctors give good care and nursing homes are clean and safe
Protect the public’s health, such as by reporting when the flu is in your area
Make required reports to the police, such as reporting gunshot wounds

Royal Life Centers LLC will only share protected health information from your medical record with other providers, entities, or individuals if you sign a release of information (ROI) for each party you wish to share information with.

Additionally, guests at Royal Life Centers LLC can choose which protected health information (PHI) is shared with entities (if any), as well as have the right to discontinue his or her consent to release some or all confidential information to any receiving parties. In an emergency situation, defined as any situation that poses an immediate risk or threat of harm or injury to your life, our protocol at Royal Life Centers is to act immediately by dispatching the appropriate emergency services. This is followed by contacting the emergency contact that you indicated during your intake. Your health information cannot be used or shared without your written permission unless this law allows it.

Use or share your information for marketing or advertising purposes or sell your information

Does HIPAA permit health care providers to share protected health information (PHI) about an individual who has mental illness with other health care providers who are treating the same individual for care coordination/continuity of care purposes?

HIPAA permits health care providers to disclose to other health providers any protected health information (PHI) contained in the medical record about an individual for treatment, case management, and coordination of care and, with few exceptions, treats mental health information the same as other health information.

Some examples of the types of mental health information that may be found in the medical record and are subject to the same HIPAA standards as other protected health information include:

Medication prescription and monitoring
Counseling session start and stop times
Modalities and frequencies of treatment furnished
Results of clinical tests 1
Summaries of: diagnosis, functional status, treatment plan, symptoms, prognosis, and progress to date.

HIPAA generally does not limit disclosures of PHI between health care providers for treatment, case management, and care coordination, except that covered entities must obtain individuals’ authorization to disclose separately maintained psychotherapy session notes for such purposes. Covered entities should determine whether other rules, such as state law or professional practice standards place additional limitations on disclosures of PHI related to mental health.
