Rejuvallife maintains contemporaneous medical records, readily available to the patient, and, subject to the patient’s consent, available to their other healthcare provider(s).

We create a record of the care and services you receive at our facility. We need this record to provide you with quality care and to comply with certain legal requirements. This notice applies to all of the records of your care generated by this facility. This notice will tell you about the ways in which we may use and disclose medical information about you. We also describe your rights and certain obligations we have regarding the use and disclosure of medical information. We are required by law to:

B. HOW WE MAY USE AND DISCLOSE MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU
The following categories describe different ways that we use and disclose medical information. For each category of uses or disclosures, we will explain what we mean and try to give some examples. Not every use or disclosure in a category will be listed. However, all of the ways we are permitted to use and disclose information will fall within one of the categories.
For Treatment: We may use medical information about you to provide you with medical treatment or services. For example, if you have a condition that requires hospitalization, your medical record or portions of your medical record may be forwarded to hospital staff. We may use your medical information to write a prescription for you, or we might disclose your medical information to a pharmacy when we order a prescription for you. We may ask you to have laboratory tests (such as blood or urine tests), and we may use the results to help us reach a diagnosis. Many of the people who work for our facility, including but not limited to our doctors and nurses, may use or disclose your medical information to others in order to treat you or assist others in your treatment. We may also disclose medical information about you to people who may be involved in your medical care such as family members.
For Payment: We may use and disclose medical information about you in order to bill and collect payment for the services you receive at this facility. For example, we may need to give your health plan information about an annual physical you received at this facility so your health plan will pay us or reimburse you for the physical. We may also tell your health plan about a treatment you are going to receive to obtain prior approval or to determine whether your plan will cover the treatment. We may use or disclose your medical information to obtain payment from third parties that may be responsible for such costs, such as family members. We may also disclose information about you to other healthcare providers or entities to assist in their billing and collection efforts. If you have paid in full for a particular treatment, you can request that we do not provide information regarding the treatment to your health plan.
For Health Care Operations: We may use and disclose medical information about you to operate our business. These uses and disclosures are necessary to run the facility and make sure that all of our patients receive quality care. For example, we may use medical information to review our treatment and services and to evaluate the performance of our staff in caring for you. We may also combine medical information about many patients to decide what additional services should be offered, what services are not needed, and whether certain new treatments are effective. We may also disclose information to doctors, nurses, technicians, and medical students for review and learning purposes. We may disclose your medical information to other healthcare providers and entities to assist in their healthcare operations.

Research: Under certain circumstances, we may use and disclose medical information about you for research purposes. For example, a research project may involve comparing the health and recovery of all patients who received one medication to those who received another for the same condition. All research projects, however, are subject to a special approval process. This process evaluates a proposed research project and its use of medical information, trying to balance the research needs with patients’ needs for the privacy of their medical information. Before we use or disclose medical information for research, the project will have been approved through this research approval process. However, we may disclose medical information about you to people preparing to conduct a research project, for example, to help them look for patients with specific medical needs, so long as the medical information they review does not leave the facility.
