PERSONAL PRIVACY PROTECTION DIRECTIVE
In accordance with DrugPlace Inc., Notice of Privacy Practices and to protect the confidentiality of my protected health information (PHI), I hereby direct that disclosure of my protected health information be restricted. Specifically, no documentation of any information related to my prescriptions or supplies, including but not limited to, any documents or other materials prepared for peer review, risk management, or quality assurance purposes, not be disclosed under any circumstances, redacted or otherwise, to anyone not affiliated with DrugPlace, for any purpose other than payment or legitimate healthcare operations, without my express written consent or the express written consent of my authorized representative.

Other Uses and Disclosures:
Other uses and disclosures of medical information not covered by this notice or the laws that apply to us will be made only with your written authorization. If you provide us authorization to use or disclose medical information about you, you may revoke that authorization in writing at any time. If you revoke your authorization, we will no longer use or disclose medical information about you for the reasons covered by your written authorization. You understand that we are unable to take back any disclosure we have already made with your authorization, and that we are required to retain our records of the care that we provided to you.

Your Rights:
You have the following rights concerning your protected health information (PHI):

Restrictions: To request restricted access to all or part of your protected health information (PHI). To do this, contact the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer. We are not required to grant your request and you do not have the right to restrict disclosures required by law. If we do agree, we must honor the restrictions you request.
Confidential Communications: To receive correspondence of confidential information by alternate means or location such as phoning you at work rather than at home or mailing your health information to a different address. To do this, contact the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer. We will take reasonable actions to accommodate your request.
Access: To inspect or receive copies of your protected health information (PHI). To do this, contact the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer. In certain circumstances you may not have the right to access your records if DrugPlace Inc. reasonably believes (or has reason to believe) that such access would cause harm. Examples include, but are not limited to, certain psychotherapy notes, information compiled in reasonable anticipation of or for use in civil, criminal, or administrative actions or proceedings, or information obtained from someone other than a healthcare provider under a promise of confidentiality and the access requested would be reasonably likely to reveal the source of the information.
Amendments / Corrections: To request changes be made to your protected health information (PHI). To do this, contact the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer. We are not required to grant your request if we did not create the record or the record is accurate and complete. If we deny your request for amendment / correction, we will notify you why, how you can attach a statement of disagreement to your records (which we may rebut), and how you can complain. If we agree to the request, we will make the correction within 60 days and will send the corrected information to persons we know who got the wrong information, and others you specify.
Accounting: To receive an accounting of the disclosures by us of your protected health information (PHI) in the six years (or shorter time) prior to your request. To do this, contact the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer. By law, the list will not include disclosures for purposes of treatment, payment, or healthcare operations; disclosures with your authorization; incidental disclosures; disclosures required by law; and some other limited disclosures. You are entitled to one such list per year without charge. If you want more frequent lists, you will have to pay for them in advance. We will usually respond to your request within 60 days of receiving it, but by law, we can have one 30- day extension of time if we notify you of the extension in writing.
This Notice: To get updates or reissue of this notice, at your request.
Complaints: To complain to us or the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services if you feel your privacy rights have been violated. To register a complaint with us, contact us in writing via mail or fax. The law forbids us from taking retaliatory action against you if you complain.
Our Duties: We are required by law to maintain the privacy of your protected health information (PHI). We must abide by the terms of this notice or any update of this notice.
