Your privacy and the security of your health information is our priority

Our Commitment to You

At One Source Medical Group, we understand the sensitive nature of your health information. We are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of your Protected Health Information (PHI) in compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

What is HIPAA?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a federal law that establishes national standards for protecting sensitive patient health information. HIPAA requires healthcare providers and their business associates to implement safeguards to protect the privacy and security of Protected Health Information (PHI).

Protected Health Information (PHI)

PHI includes any information that can identify you and relates to your health condition, healthcare services, or payment for healthcare. This includes:

  • Name and contact information
  • Date of birth
  • Social Security number
  • Medical record numbers
  • Health plan information
  • Medical conditions and diagnoses
  • Prescription information
  • Insurance information

How We Protect Your Information

We implement comprehensive administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect your PHI:

Administrative Safeguards

We maintain policies and procedures for handling PHI, conduct regular staff training on HIPAA requirements, and have designated privacy and security officers overseeing compliance.

Physical Safeguards

We secure our facilities and workstations, control physical access to areas where PHI is stored or accessed, and properly dispose of documents containing PHI.

Technical Safeguards

We use encryption to protect electronic PHI, implement access controls and authentication, maintain audit logs of PHI access, and secure all data transmissions.
