Introduction
At Destini Healthcare Services, we are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of our patients’ health information in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Protection of Health Information
We implement stringent safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Protected Health Information (PHI). This includes technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
Use and Disclosure of PHI
We will use or disclose PHI only as necessary to provide our healthcare services, or as required by law. Patients will be informed of any other uses or disclosures that may impact their privacy.
Patients’ Rights
Patients have the right to access and obtain a copy of their PHI, request amendments to their records, and receive an accounting of disclosures. Instructions for exercising these rights are clearly provided.
Complaints
If patients believe their privacy rights have been violated, they may file a complaint with us or with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Contact information and procedures for filing a complaint are readily available.
