Who Will Follow This Notice

This notice describes the privacy practices of Pravan Health LLC and the people and operations that support services offered under Pravan Health and Pravan Esthetics.

This may include:

  • Healthcare professionals involved in your care
  • Employees and staff
  • Contractors and service providers whose work involves protected health information
  • Volunteers and other authorized personnel
  • Administrative, billing, scheduling, compliance, and support teams
  • Other individuals legally authorized to participate in your care or healthcare operations

These individuals and operations may use or disclose protected health information for treatment, payment, healthcare operations, and other purposes permitted or required by law.

A healthcare professional may follow a separate Notice of Privacy Practices for services provided outside Pravan Health LLC.

Our Commitment to Your Medical Information

Pravan Health LLC understands that medical information about you and your health is personal.

We are committed to protecting health information that we create, receive, maintain, or transmit in connection with your care and services.

Protected health information may include information that identifies you and relates to:

  • Your past, present, or future physical or mental health
  • Healthcare services provided to you
  • Treatment recommendations or clinical documentation
  • Payment for healthcare services
  • Appointments and communications related to your care

We maintain records of the services you receive as necessary for treatment, payment, healthcare operations, professional responsibilities, and compliance with applicable law.

Your Rights

You have certain rights regarding your health information. This section explains those rights and how you may exercise them.

Get a Copy of Your Medical Record

You may ask to see or receive an electronic or paper copy of your medical record and other health information we maintain about you.

We will provide access, a copy, or a summary within the time required by law.

We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee when permitted.

Ask Us to Correct Your Medical Record

You may ask us to correct health information that you believe is inaccurate or incomplete.

We may deny your request in certain circumstances. If we do, we will explain the reason in writing within the time required by law.

Request Confidential Communications

You may ask us to contact you in a particular way or at a different location.

For example, you may ask us to:

  • Call a specific telephone number
  • Avoid leaving detailed voicemail messages
  • Use a particular email address
  • Send correspondence to another address
  • Use an approved application or communication method

We will accommodate reasonable requests.

Ask Us to Limit What We Use or Share

You may ask us not to use or share certain health information for treatment, payment, or healthcare operations.

We are not always required to agree to the request.

If we agree to a restriction, we will follow it unless the information is needed for emergency treatment or another legal exception applies.

Ask Us Not to Share Information With a Health Plan

If you pay in full, out of pocket, for a healthcare service or item, you may ask us not to share information about that service or item with your health plan for payment or healthcare operations.

We will agree unless the disclosure is required by law.

Get a List of Certain Disclosures

You may ask for a list showing certain disclosures of your health information. This is known as an accounting of disclosures.

The list generally covers the six years before your request.

It does not include every use or disclosure, such as disclosures made for treatment, payment, healthcare operations, or disclosures you authorized.

We will provide one accounting during a 12-month period at no charge. We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee for additional requests during the same period.

Get a Copy of This Notice

You may request a paper or electronic copy of this notice at any time, even if you previously agreed to receive it electronically.

Choose Someone to Act for You

If another person has legal authority to act as your personal representative, that person may exercise your privacy rights and make decisions about your health information.

We will verify that person’s authority before taking action.

Request a Transfer or Disclosure of Records

You may request that we send your medical records or other health information to another healthcare professional or authorized recipient.

We may require a valid written authorization or another legally permitted form of approval before transferring records.

Requests will be handled according to applicable law, identity-verification requirements, and applicable record-release procedures.

File a Privacy Complaint

You may file a complaint if you believe your privacy rights have been violated.

You may contact the privacy representative listed at the end of this notice.

You may also file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights.

We will not penalize or retaliate against you for filing a complaint or exercising your privacy rights.

Your Choices

For certain health information, you may tell us what you prefer.

People Involved in Your Care

You may tell us whether we may share relevant information with a family member, close friend, caregiver, personal representative, or another person involved in your care or payment for your care.
