    Notice of Health Information Practices

    This notice describes how information about you may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to this information. Please review it carefully.
    Understanding Your Health Record/Information
    Each time you visit a hospital, physician or other healthcare provider a record of your visit is made. Typically, this record contains your symptoms, examination and test results, diagnoses, treatment and a plan for future care or treatment. This information often referred to as your health medical record serves as a:

    • Basis for planning your care and treatment
    • Means of communication among may health professionals who contribute to your care
    • Legal document describing the care you received
    • Means by which you or a third-party payer can verify that services billed were actually provided
    • A tool in educating health professionals
    • A source of data for medical research
    • A source of information for public health officials charged with improving the health of the nation
    • A source of data for facility planning and marketing
    • A tool with which we can assess and continually work to improve the care we render and the outcomes we achieve

    Understanding what is in your record and how your health information is used helps you to:

    • Ensure its accuracy
    • Better understand who, what, when and why others may access your health information
    • Make more informed decisions when authorizing disclosure to others

    Your Health Information Rights
    Although your health record is the physical property of the healthcare practitioner or facility that compiled it, the information belongs to you. You have the right to:

    • Request a restriction on certain uses and disclosures or your information as provided by 45 CFR 164.522
    • Obtain a paper copy of the notice of information practices upon request
    • Inspect and copy your health record as provided for in CFR 164.525
    • Amend your health record as provided in 45 CFR 164.528
    • Obtain an accounting of disclosures of your health information as provided in 45 CFR 164.528
    • Request communication of your health information by alternative means or at alternative locations
    • Revoke your authorization to use or disclose health information except to the extent that action has already been taken

    Our Responsibilities
    This organization is required to:

    • Maintain the privacy of your health information
    • Provide you with a notice as to our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to information we collect and maintain about you
    • Abide by the terms of this notice
    • Notify you if we are unable to agree to a requested restriction
    • Accommodate reasonable requests you may have to communicate health information by alternative or at alternative locations

    We reserve the right to change our practices and to make the new provisions effective for all protected health information we maintain. Should our information practices change, we will mail a revised notice to the address you've supplied us.

    We will not disclose your health information without your authorization, except as described in this notice.

    For more information or to Report a Problem
    If you have questions and would like additional information, you may contact Just Be Fit, Inc. at (847) 444-1348.

    If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you can file a complaint with the Secretary of Health and Human Services. There will be no retaliation for filing a complaint.

    Examples of Disclosures for Treatment, Payment and Health Operations

    We will use your health information for treatment.
    For example: Information obtained by your physical therapist will be recorded in your record and used to determine the course of treatment that should work best for you. Your physician will document in your record his or her expectations of your physical therapist. Your therapist will then record the actions he/she took and their observations. In that way the physician will know how you are responding to treatment.
    We will also provide your physician or a subsequent healthcare provider with copies of various reports that should assist him or her in treating you once you're discharged from therapy.

    We will use your health information for payment
    For example: A bill may be sent to you or a third-party payer. The information on or accompanying the bill may include information that identifies you, as well as your diagnosis, procedures and supplies used.

    We will use your health information for regular health operations.
    For example: Members of the medical staff, the corporate compliance officer, or other members of our physical therapy staff may use information in your health record to assess the care and outcomes in your case and others like it. This information will then be used in an effort to continually improve the quality and effectiveness of the healthcare and service we provide.

    Business Associates:
    There are some services provided in our organization through contacts with business associates. Examples include our billing service. When these services are contracted, we may disclose your health information to our business associate so that they can perform the job we've asked them to do. To protect your health information, however, we require the business associate to appropriately safeguard your information.

    Communication with family:
    Health professionals, using their best judgment, may disclose to a family member, other relative, close personal friend or any other person you identify, health information relevant to that person's involvement in your care or payment related to your care.

    Research:
    We may disclose information to researchers when their research has been approved by an institutional review board that has reviewed the research proposal and established protocols to ensure the privacy of your health information.

    Marketing:
    We may contact you to provide appointment reminders or information about treatment alternatives or other health-related benefits and services that may be of interest to you.

    Workers Compensation:
    We may disclose health information to the extent authorized by and to the extent necessary to comply with laws relating to workers compensation or other similar programs established by law.

    Public Health:
    As required by law, we may disclose your health information to public health or legal authorities charged with preventing or controlling disease, injury, or disability.

    Law Enforcement:
    We may disclose health information for law enforcement purposes as required by law or in response to a valid subpoena.
    Federal law makes provision for your health information to be released to an appropriate health oversight agency, public health authority or attorney, provided that a work force member or business associate believes in good faith that we have engaged in unlawful conduct or have otherwise violated professional or clinical standards and are potentially endangering one or more patients, workers or the public.
