Privacy Statement

Compliance Assurance Notification

To Our Valued Patients:

The misuse of Personal Health Information (PHI) has been identified as a national problem causing patients inconvenience, aggravation, and money.  We want you to know that all of our employees, managers and doctors continually undergo training so that they may understand and comply with government rules and regulations regarding the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) with particular emphasis on the “Privacy Rule.”  We strive to achieve the very highest standards of ethics and integrity in performing services for our patients.

It is our policy to properly determine appropriate uses of PHI in accordance with the governmental rules, laws and regulations.  We want to ensure that our practice never contributes in any way to the growing problem or improper disclosure of PHI.  As part of this plan, we have implemented a Compliance Program that we believe will help us prevent any inappropriate use of PHI.

We also know that we are not perfect!  Because of this fact, our policy is to listen to our employees and our patients without any thought of penalization if they feel that an event in any way compromises our policy of integrity.  More so, we welcome your input regarding any service problem so that we may remedy the situation promptly.

Mobile Number Messaging: We offer mobile number programs, such as SMS and MMS messaging, to our customers who explicitly opt in. You can opt in to receive these messages by signing up on our website, through one of our authorized representatives, or by submitting a paper form that clearly states your consent to receive mobile messages from us.

You can always opt out of receiving these messages by contacting one of our authorized representatives.

Thank you for being one of our highly valued patients.
