THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.
Our Responsibilities
Amplify Your Narrative PLLC is required by law to maintain the privacy and security of your protected health information (PHI), provide you with this Notice describing our legal duties and privacy practices, and follow the terms of the Notice currently in effect.
We will notify you promptly if a breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your information.
We will not use or disclose your health information except as described in this Notice unless you authorize us in writing. If you provide written authorization, you may revoke that authorization in writing at any time, except to the extent that we have already acted in reliance on it.
Your Rights
When it comes to your health information, you have certain rights. This section explains your rights and some of our responsibilities in helping you exercise them.
Get an Electronic or Paper Copy of Your Health Record
You may ask to see or obtain an electronic or paper copy of your health record and other health information we maintain about you.
We will provide a copy or summary of your health information, usually within 30 days of your request. We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee as permitted by law.
In limited circumstances, we may deny access to certain information as permitted by law.
Ask Us to Correct Your Health Record
You may ask us to correct health information about you that you believe is incorrect or incomplete.
We may deny your request in certain circumstances, but we will explain the reason for the denial in writing, generally within 60 days.
Request Confidential Communications
You may ask us to contact you in a specific way, such as by phone or email, or to send communications to a different address.
We will accommodate reasonable requests.
Ask Us to Limit What We Use or Share
You may ask us not to use or disclose certain health information for treatment, payment, or health care operations.
We are generally not required to agree to your request.
If you pay for a health care service in full out of pocket, you may ask us not to disclose information about that service to your health plan for payment or health care operations. We will honor that request unless disclosure is required by law.

You may request an accounting of certain disclosures of your health information made during the six years before the date of your request.
The accounting will not include certain disclosures, such as disclosures made for treatment, payment, or health care operations or disclosures that you specifically authorized.
We will provide one accounting during any 12-month period at no charge. We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee for additional requests during the same 12-month period.
