YOUR HEALTH INFORMATION RIGHTS
1. Right to Inspect and Copy. You have the right to inspect and copy the PHI that we maintain about you. If we maintain an electronic health record containing your PHI, you have the right to request to obtain the PHI in an electronic format. To inspect or obtain a copy of your PHI, you must submit your request in writing to the Privacy Officer. You may ask us to send a copy of your PHI to other individuals or entities that you designate. We may deny your request to inspect and copy in certain very limited circumstances. If this occurs, you may request that the denial be reviewed.
2. Right to Request an Amendment. If you feel that PHI maintained about you is incorrect or incomplete, you may request that we amend it. Requests to amend should be submitted in writing to the Privacy Officer. You must include a reason that supports your request. If we deny your request for an amendment, we will provide you with a written explanation of why we denied it.
3. Right to Accounting of Disclosures. You have the right to request a list of the certain disclosures made of your PHI in the six years prior to the date of your request, to individuals or entities other than you. To request an accounting, you must submit your request in writing to the Privacy Officer and your request must specify a time period. The first accounting you request within a 12-month period will be free. For additional accountings within the 12-month period, you may be charged for the cost of providing the list. We will notify you of the cost involved and you may choose to withdraw or modify your request at that time before any costs are incurred.
4. Right to Request Restrictions. You have the right to request a restriction or limitation on our use or disclose of your PHI for treatment, payment or health care operations. You also have the right to request a limitation on the PHI we disclose about you to someone who is involved in your care or the payment for your care. If we agree, we will comply with your request unless the information is needed to provide emergency treatment. We are not required to agree to the restrictions except in the case where the disclosure is to a health plan for purposes of carrying out payment or health care operations, is not otherwise required by law, and the PHI pertains solely to a health care item or service for which you, or a person on your behalf, has paid in full. To request restrictions, submit your request in writing to the Privacy Officer using our request form.
5. Right to Request Alternate Means or Locations of Communications. You have the right to request that we communicate with you about your health matters in a certain way or at a certain location. For example, a legally responsible party could ask that we contact them only at work or by email. Please note that if you choose to receive communications from us via email or other electronic means, those may not be a secure means of communication and your PHI that may be contained in our emails to you will not be encrypted. This means that there is risk that your PHI in the emails may be intercepted and read by, or disclosed to, unauthorized third parties. To request confidential communication of your PHI, submit your request in writing to the Privacy Office. Your request must tell us how or where you would like to be contacted. We will accommodate all reasonable requests. However, if we are unable to contact you using the ways or locations you have requested, we may contact you using the information we have.
6. Right to a Paper Copy of This Notice. You have the right to a paper copy of this Notice even if you have agreed to receive the Notice electronically. You may ask us to give you a copy of this Notice at any time. To obtain a paper copy of this Notice, contact the Privacy Office. You may also obtain a copy of this Notice at our website, www.Golden Orchard Livingliving.com.
7. Notification of a Breach. You have a right to be notified following a breach of your unsecured PHI, and we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.
