YOUR HEALTH INFORMATION
This notice applies to the information and records we have about your health, health status, and the health care and services you receive from this office. It details the ways in which we may use and disclose health information about you and describes your rights and our obligations regarding the use and disclosure of that information.
HOW WE MAY USE AND DISCLOSE HEALTH INFORMATION ABOUT YOU
For Treatment
We may use your health information to provide you with treatment or services. We may disclose health information about you to doctors, nurses, technicians, office staff or other personnel who are involved in taking care of you and your health.
Different personnel in our office may share information about you and disclose information to people who do not work in our office in order to coordinate your care, such as coordinating home care services, scheduling transportation or appointments. Family members and other health care providers may be part of your medical care outside this office and may require information about you that we have.
For Payment
We may use and disclose health information about you so that the treatment and services you receive at this office may be billed to and payment may be collected from you, an insurance company or a third party. For example, we may need to give your health plan information about a service you received here so your health plan will pay us. We may also tell your health plan about a treatment you are going to receive to obtain prior approval, or to determine whether your plan will cover the treatment.
For Health Care Operations
We may use and disclose health information about you in order to run the office and make sure that you and our other patients receive quality care. For example, we may use your health information to evaluate the performance of our staff in caring for you. We may also use health information about all or many of our patients to help us decide what additional services we should offer, how we can become more efficient, or whether certain new treatments are effective.
Appointment Reminders
We may contact you as a reminder that you have an appointment for treatment or care.
Health Related Products and Services
We may tell you about health related products or services that may be of interest to you.
Please notify us if you do not wish to be contacted for appointment reminders. If you advise us in writing (at the address listed at the top of this Notice) that you do not wish to receive such communications, we will not use or disclose your information for these purposes.
SPECIAL SITUATIONS
We may use or disclose health information about you without your permission for the following purposes, subject to all applicable legal requirements and limitations:
To Avert a Serious Threat to Health or Safety
We may use and disclose your health information when necessary to prevent a serious threat to your health and safety or the health and safety of the public or another person.
Required By Law
We will disclose your health information when required to do so by federal, state or local law.
Military, Veterans, National Security and Intelligence
If you are or were a member of the armed forces, or part of the national security or intelligence communities, we may be required by military command or other government authorities to release your health information. We may also release information about foreign military personnel to the appropriate foreign military authority.
Workers’ Compensation
We may release your health information for workers’ compensation or similar programs. These programs provide benefits for work related injuries or illness.
Public Health Risks
We may disclose health information about you for public health reasons in order to prevent or control disease, injury or disability; or report births, deaths, suspected abuse or neglect, non accidental physical injuries, reactions to medications or problems with products.
Health Oversight Activities
We may disclose health information to a health oversight agency for audits, investigations, inspections, or licensing purposes. These disclosures may be necessary for certain state and federal agencies to monitor the health care system, government programs, and compliance with civil rights laws.

Family and Friends
We may disclose your health information to your family members or friends if we obtain your verbal agreement to do so or if we give you an opportunity to object to such a disclosure and you do not raise an objection. We may also disclose your health information to your family if we can infer from the circumstances, based on our professional judgment that you would not object.
OTHER USES AND DISCLOSURES OF HEALTH INFORMATION
We will not use or disclose your health information for any purpose other than those identified in the previous sections without your specific, written Authorization. If you give us Authorization to use or disclose your health information, you may revoke that Authorization, in writing, at any time. If you revoke your Authorization, we will no longer use or disclose information about you for the reasons covered by your written Authorization, but we cannot take back any uses or disclosures already made with your permission.
YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING YOUR HEALTH INFORMATION
You have the following rights regarding health information we maintain about you:

If such a review is required by law, we will select a licensed health care professional to review your request and our denial. The person conducting the review will not be the person who denied your request, and we will comply with the outcome of the review.
Right to Amend
If you believe health information we have about you is incorrect or incomplete, you may request to amend the information. You have the right to request an amendment as long as the information is kept by this office.
We may deny your request for an amendment if it is not in writing or does not include a reason to support the request. In addition, we may deny your request if you ask us to amend information that:

To obtain this list, you must submit your request in writing to ADVANCED SENIORS HEALTH GROUP. It must state a time period, which may not be longer than six years and may not include dates before January 1, 2007. Your request should indicate in what form you want the list (for example, on paper, electronically). We may charge you for the costs 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.
