Notice of Privacy Practices

Request the official notice

Before establishing care, request the practice’s current Notice of Privacy Practices through its official intake or contact process. That document should identify the responsible privacy contact, effective date, permitted uses and disclosures, patient rights, and complaint procedures.

Review the official, practice-specific notice through the practice’s intake process. This educational summary is not a replacement for that document.

Your health information rights

Depending on applicable law and exceptions, HIPAA gives patients rights that may include accessing or obtaining a copy of health records, requesting corrections, asking for confidential communications or certain restrictions, and receiving an accounting of some disclosures.

The official notice explains how to exercise these rights, applicable limits, and how to make a privacy complaint without retaliation.
