Your health information

A practice’s privacy notice explains how health information may be used for treatment, billing, and practice operations, along with other disclosures permitted or required by law.

Your rights

HIPAA provides rights to access records, request corrections, ask for confidential communications or certain restrictions, and receive information about some disclosures. Conditions and exceptions apply.

Additional protections

Psychotherapy notes and certain substance use treatment records have additional protections. The final notice must describe the protections applicable to this practice.

Questions or complaints

Contact Christopher for the current notice and information about exercising your rights. You may also contact the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services about privacy concerns.
