NOTICE OF PRIVACY RIGHTS AND PRACTICES FOR YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
EFFECTIVE: 06/01/2019
THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN
GET ACCES TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.
Our duties and pledge to protect your personal health information (“PHI”)
We are required by law to maintain the privacy of your health information and to provide you with
this Notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to protected health information.
We are required to protect the confidentiality of your PHI and will disclose your PHI to a person
other than you or your personal representative only when permitted under federal or state law.
This protection extends to any PHI that is oral, written or electronic, such as information
transmitted by facsimile, modem or any other electronic device. This Notice describes how we may
use and disclose your PHI without your express permission. In all other circumstances, we will
obtain your written authorization before we use or disclose your PHI. This Notice also describes
your rights and the obligations we have regarding the use and disclosure of your PHI. Under
federal and applicable state law, we are required to follow the terms of the Notice currently in
effect. In some situations, state privacy or other applicable laws may provide greater privacy
protections than those sated in this Notice. For example, depending on the state in which you
reside, there may be additional state law privacy protections related to communicable diseases,
reproductive health, substance abuse, and mental health. When appropriate, we will follow these
state or other applicable laws.
HOW WE MAY USE AND DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION
How We May Use and Disclose Your PHI Without Your Permission for Payment or Business Operations
Below are examples of how federal law permits use or disclosure of your PHI for these purposes
without your permission:
• Business Operations: PHI obtained by Rx Help Centers will be used for training,
quality assurance, and financial and accounting activities.
• Payment: We may contact drug companies or other third-party sources to determine
your potential discount.
Other Special Circumstances
In addition to the above, we are permitted under federal and applicable state laws to use or
disclose your PHI without your permission only in certain circumstances, as described below:
• Business Associates: We utilize services of other entities termed “business
associates”. Federal law requires us to enter into contracts with these entities to require them
to safeguard your PHI and use and disclose it only as specified by us.
• Individuals involved in your care or payment for care: We may disclose your PHI to
a friend, personal representatives or family member involved in your medical care or payment for
your care. For example, if we can reasonably infer that you agree, we may provide information to
your caregiver on your behalf.
• Disclosures to parents or legal guardians: If you are a minor, we may release your
PHI to your parents or legal guardians when we are permitted or required under federal or
applicable state law.

similar process.
• As required by law: We must disclose your PHI when required to do so by applicable
federal or state law.
• Judicial and administrative proceedings: We may disclose your PHI in response to a
court administrative order, and under certain conditions, subpoena, discovery request or other

disclosures to notify individuals of recalls, exposure to a disease or risk for contracting or
spreading a disease or condition.

required to disclose your PHI to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to determine if
we are in compliance with federal laws and regulations regarding the privacy of health information.
• Coroners, medical examiners, and funeral directors: We may release your PHI to
assist in identifying a deceased person or determine a cause of death.
• Administrators or executor: Upon your death, we may disclose your PHI to an
administrator, executor or other similarly authorized individual under applicable state law.
• Organ or tissue procurement organizations: Consistent with applicable law, we may
disclose your PHI to organ procurement organizations or other entities engaged in the procurement,
banking or transplantation of organs for the purpose of tissue donation and transplant.
• To avert a serious threat to health or safety: We may use and disclose your PHI to
appropriate authorities when necessary to prevent a serious threat to your health and safety or the
health and safety of another person or the public.
How We May Use or Disclose Your PHI for Other Purposes Only with Your Authorization
We will obtain your written authorization before using or disclosing your PHI for purposes other
than those described. You may revoke this authorization at any time by submitting a written notice
to our address listed in the Contact Information below. Your revocation will not apply to
information released before we receive it. You have the following rights with respect to your PHI:
• Obtain a paper copy of the Notice upon request. To obtain a copy, contact us at the

• Inspect and obtain a copy of your PHI. You have a right to access and copy your
PHI. To inspect or obtain a copy of your PHI, submit a written request to our address listed in
the Contact Information. We will respond to your request in writing within 30 days. A fee may be
charged for the expense of fulfilling your request. We may deny your request in certain
circumstances, such as if we have reasonably determined that providing access to PHI would endanger
your life or safety or cause substantial harm to you or another person. If we deny your request,
we will notify you in writing and provide you with the opportunity to request a review of the
denial.
• Request an amendment of PHI: If you feel that your PHI maintained by us is
incomplete or incorrect, you may request that we amend it. To request and amendment, submit a
written request to our address listed in the Contact Information. Requests must identify: (i) which
information you seek to amend, (ii) what corrections you would like to make, and (iii) why the information
needs to be amended. We will respond to your request in writing within 60 days (with a possible 30-day
extension). In our response, we will either (i) agree to make the amendment, (ii) inform you of
our denial, explain our reason and outline appeal procedures. If denied, you have the right to

and maintain appropriate records of your disagreement and our rebuttal.
• Receive an accounting of disclosures of PHI. You have the right to request an
accounting of disclosures of your PHI for purposes other than payment or business operations. This
accounting will also exclude disclosures made directly to you, made with your authorization, made
to your caregivers, and certain other disclosures. To obtain an accounting, submit a written
request to our address listed in the Contact Information. Requests must specify the time period,
not to exceed six years. We will respond in writing within 60 days of receipt of your request
(with a possible 30-day extension). We will provide one free accounting per 12-month period, but
you may be charged for the cost of any subsequent accountings during the same period. We will
notify you in advance of the cost involved, and you may choose to withdraw or modify your request
at that time.
• Request communications of PHI by alternative means or at alternative locations. You
have the right to request that we communicate with you in a certain way or at a certain location.
For example, you may request that we contact you only in writing at a specific address. To request
confidential communication of your PHI, submit a written request to our address listed in the

We will accommodate all reasonable requests.

request to our address listed in the Contact Information.
You must identify in this request: (i) what particular information you would like to limit,
(ii) whether you want to limit use, disclosure or both, and (iii) to whom you want the limits to
apply. All requests will be carefully considered, but we are not required to agree to those
restrictions. We will provide you with a written response to your request within 30 days. If we
do agree to restrict use or disclosure of your PHI, we will not apply these restrictions in the
event of an emergency. We also have the right to terminate the restriction if (i) you agree orally
or in writing or (ii) we inform you of the termination, which becomes effective only with respect
to your PHI created or received after we inform you of the termination.
We will notify you promptly if a disclosure occurs in a manner that has not been detailed in this
Notice if that disclosure may have compromised the privacy or security of your information.
