Morgan Mental Health Care

Your Private Health Information: Morgan Mental Health Group LLC keeps records of the mental health care and services provided to you to help provide quality care and services. Because of the sensitivity of health records, we are required by state and federal law to maintain the privacy of your health information. We are also required to give you this Notice of Privacy Practices concerning your health information.

Use and Disclosure Information: Disclosure of information about you for treatment, payment, and health care operations, for example:

• Treatment: Sharing all or part of your health information with another health care provider providing treatment to you.
• Payment: Our office keeps billing records that include payment information and documentation of the services provided to you. We may use and disclose your health information to obtain payment from you, your insurance company, or other third part payment provider.
• Health Care: Operations we may use and disclose your health care information to improve quality of care, train my staff, provide customer service, manage costs, and conduct business duties.

Federal guidelines do not require my office to have your written consent to disclose your health care information when it is for payment, treatment, or health care operation purposes. However, because your private health information is sensitive, I will keep disclosures to a minimum based on my profession judgment. I will also have you sign a consent and/or authorization document to request information from other sources and to release health information to outside parties.
