  1. NOTICE OF PRIVACY PRACTICES

THIS SECTION DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.

ADS’s Protection of Protected Health Information (“PHI”). Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), ADS is required by law to maintain the privacy of health information that identifies you and to provide you with notice of our legal duties and privacy practices regarding PHI. ADS is committed to the protection of your PHI and will make reasonable efforts to ensure the confidentiality of your PHI, as required by statute and regulation. We take this commitment seriously and will work with you to comply with your right to receive certain information under HIPAA.

ADS’s Use and Disclosure of PHI. As permitted under HIPAA, the following categories explain the types of uses and disclosures of PHI that ADS may make. Please contact our Privacy Officer (privacyofficer@usmed.com), using the contact information provided at the end of this notice, for specific information regarding your state.

For treatment – ADS may use or disclose PHI for treatment purposes, including disclosure to health care professionals who provide you with health care services.

For payment – ADS may use or disclose PHI to bill and collect payment for Products. For example, ADS may provide PHI to your health plan to receive payment for the health care services provided to you.

For health care operations – ADS may use or disclose PHI for health care operations purposes. These uses and disclosures are necessary, for example, to evaluate the quality of our Products, accreditation functions and for ADS’s operation and management purposes.  ADS may also disclose PHI to other health care providers or health plans that are involved in your care for their health care operations. For example, ADS may provide PHI to manage disease, or to coordinate health care or health benefits.

Individuals involved in your care or payment for your care – ADS may disclose PHI to a person who is involved in your care or helps pay for your care, such as a family member or friend. We also may notify your family about your location or general condition or disclose such information to an entity assisting in a disaster relief effort. As allowed by federal and state law, we may disclose the PHI of minors to their parents or legal guardians.

Business associates – ADS may disclose PHI to its business associates to perform certain business functions or provide certain business services to ADS. For example, we may use another company to perform billing services on our behalf. All of our business associates are required to maintain the privacy and confidentiality of your PHI. In addition, at the request of your health care providers or health plan, ADS may disclose PHI to their business associates for purposes of performing certain business functions or health care services on their behalf. For example, we may disclose PHI to a business associate of Medicare for purposes of medical necessity review and audit.

Disclosure for judicial and administrative proceedings – Under certain circumstances, ADS may disclose your PHI in the course of a judicial or administrative proceeding, including in response to a court or administrative order, subpoena, discovery request, or other lawful process.

Law enforcement – ADS may disclose PHI for law enforcement purposes or in response to a court order, warrant, subpoena or summons, or similar process authorized by law. We may also disclose PHI when the information is needed: 1) for identification or location of a suspect, fugitive, material witness or missing person, 2) about a victim of a crime, 3) about an individual who has died, 4) in relation to criminal conduct on ADS premises, or 5) in emergency circumstances to report a crime, the location of the crime or victims, or the identity, description, or location of the person who committed the crime.

As required by law – ADS must disclose your PHI if required to do so by federal, state, or local law.

Public Health – ADS may disclose PHI for public health activities. These activities generally include: 1) disclosures to a public health authority to report, prevent or control disease, injury, or disability; 2) disclosures to report births and deaths, or to report child abuse or neglect; 3) disclosures to a person subject to the jurisdiction of the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for purposes related to the quality, safety or effectiveness of an FDA-regulated product or activity, including reporting reactions to medications or problems with products or notifying people of recalls of products they may be using; 4) disclosures to notify a person who may have been exposed to a disease or may be at risk for contracting or spreading a disease or condition; and 5) disclosures to an employer about an employee to conduct medical surveillance in certain limited circumstances concerning work-place illness or injury.

Disclosure about victims of abuse, neglect, or domestic violence – ADS may disclose PHI about an individual to a government authority, including social services, if we reasonably believe that an individual is a victim of abuse, neglect, or domestic violence.

Health oversight activities – ADS may disclose PHI to a health care oversight agency for activities authorized by law such as audits, civil, administrative, or criminal investigations and proceedings/actions, inspections, licensure/disciplinary actions, or other activities necessary for appropriate oversight of the health care system, government benefit programs, and compliance with regulatory requirements and civil rights laws.

Government functions – In certain situations, ADS may disclose the PHI of military personnel and veterans, including Armed Forces personnel, as required by military command authorities. Additionally, we may disclose PHI to authorized officials for national security purposes, such as protecting the President of the United States, conducting intelligence, counter-intelligence, other national security activities, and when requested by foreign military authorities. Disclosures will be made only in compliance with U.S. Law.

Workers’ compensation – As authorized by applicable laws, ADS may use or disclose PHI to comply with workers’ compensation or other similar programs established to provide work-related injury or illness benefits.

De-identified Information and Limited Data Sets – ADS may use and disclose health information that has been “de-identified” by removing certain identifiers making it unlikely that you could be identified. ADS also may disclose limited health information, contained in a “limited data set”. The limited data set does not contain any information that can directly identify you. For example, a limited data set may include your city, county and zip code, but not your name or street address.

Other Uses and Disclosures of PHI. For purposes not described above, including uses and disclosures of PHI for marketing purposes and disclosures that would constitute a sale of PHI, ADS will ask for patient authorization before using or disclosing PHI. If you signed an authorization form, you may revoke it, in writing, at any time, except to the extent that action has been taken in reliance on the authorization.

Information Breach Notification. ADS is required to provide patient notification if it discovers a breach of unsecured PHI unless there is a demonstration, based on a risk assessment, that there is a low probability that the PHI has been compromised. You will be notified without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 days after discovery of the breach. Such notification will include information about what happened and what can be done to mitigate any harm.

Patient Rights Regarding PHI. Subject to certain exceptions, HIPAA establishes the following patient rights with respect to PHI:

ADS will consider your request, but is not required to agree to it unless the requested restriction involves a disclosure that is not required by law to a health plan for payment or health care operations purposes and not for treatment, and you have paid for the service in full out of pocket. If we agree to a restriction on other types of disclosures, we will state the agreed restrictions in writing and will abide by them, except in emergency situations when the disclosure is for purposes of treatment.

Right to Request Confidential Communications – You have the right to request that ADS communicate with you about your PHI at an alternative address or by an alternative means. ADS will accommodate reasonable requests.

Right to See and Receive Copies of Your PHI – You and your personal representative have the right to access any PHI about your use of our Products.
