HIPAA and PHI
Certain demographic, health and/or health-related information that Nurselynx collects about Consumers as part of providing the Services to our Clients may be considered “protected health information” or “PHI” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”). Specifically, when Nurselynx, acting as a “Business Associate” (as such term is defined in HIPAA) receives identifiable information about a Consumer from or on behalf of a Client, or Customer’s Nurse, Nurse practitioner or other healthcare professional, organization or agent or affiliate thereof (collectively, “Healthcare Professionals”), this information is considered PHI. Personal data that a Consumer provides to Nurselynx outside of the foregoing context is not PHI. For example, when you provide information directly to us, such as when creating an account or using our interactive tools and services, searching for Healthcare Professionals or available appointments with Healthcare Professionals, and completing medical history forms (“Medical History Forms”); or when you voluntarily provide information in free-form text boxes through the Services or through responses to surveys and questionnaires, or post reviews; or when you send us an email or otherwise contact us, that information is not PHI.
HIPAA provides specific protections for the privacy and security of PHI and restricts how PHI is used and disclosed. Nurselynx may only use and disclose PHI in the ways permitted by a Consumer’s Healthcare Nurse Professional(s) or authorized by a Consumer.
