Notice of Privacy Practices Policy

Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. is committed to protecting the confidentiality of your medical information, and we are required by law to do so. This Notice describes how we may use your medical information within Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. and how we may disclose it to others outside of Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. This Notice also describes the rights you have concerning your own medical information. Please review it carefully and let us know if you have questions.

This Notice of Privacy Practices applies to all Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. facilities, and all Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. personnel, independent agents, volunteers, and trainees. The Notice also applies to Business Associates in which Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. has contracted with to provide certain services, unless these Business Associates have their own Notice which meets or exceeds the information described in this Notice.

Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. may share your medical information with certain individuals and organizations, but only if it is necessary for quoting medical and voluntary insurance policies and/or health care operations. At certain other times we may also share your medical information, such as when it’s required by law. The following information describes when and how we may use and disclose your medical or claim information.

USER INFORMATION FROM MARKETING AND PROSPECTING CAMPAIGNS

Any user/client information collected from marketing or prospecting efforts will not be shared with any third party agents, clients, or anyone outside of Averta Insurance Solutions Inc.

We will not sell your personal information to any persons or organizations except in the event we negotiate a transaction involving the sale or transfer of all or a part of our business or assets (include any merger, financing, acquisition, or bankruptcy proceeding) or other corporate change in control. We will not share your personal information with anyone other than our authorized third-party vendors (and their authorized vendors) who need it to provide services for us, or when required by law or legal process, or for the investigation of illegal or criminal activities, or the exercise of our legal rights in defense against any legal claims, or otherwise.

HOW WE MAY USE AND DISCLOSE YOUR MEDICAL OR CLAIM INFORMATION

Required by Law:

Federal, state, or local laws sometimes require us to disclose members’ medical information. For instance, we are required to give information to Worker’s Compensation Programs for work-related injuries. We also may be required to report certain medical information for public health purposes.

Public Safety:

We may disclose medical information for public safety purposes in limited circumstances. We may disclose medical information to law enforcement officials in response to a search warrant or a grand jury subpoena. We also may disclose medical information to assist law enforcement officials in identifying or locating a person, to prosecute a crime of violence, and to report any criminal conduct within Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. We also may disclose your medical information to law enforcement officials and others to prevent a serious threat of health or safety.

Health Oversight Activities:

We may disclose medical information to a government agency that oversees Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. or its personnel, such as the federal agencies that oversee Medicare. These agencies may need medical information to monitor our compliance with state and federal laws.

Coroners, Medical Examiners or Funeral Directors:

We may disclose information concerning deceased patients to coroners, medical examiners, and funeral directors to assist them in carrying out their duties.

Military, Veterans, National Security and Other Government Purposes:

If you are a member of the armed forces, we may release your medical information as required by military command authorities or to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. may also disclose medical information to federal officials for intelligence and national security purposes or for presidential protective services.

Judicial Proceedings:

Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. may disclose medical information if ordered to do so by a court or if a subpoena or search warrant is served. You will receive advance Notice about this disclosure in most situations so that you will have a chance to object to sharing your medical information.

Information with Additional Protection:

Certain types of medical information have additional protection under state and federal law. For instance, medical information about communicable disease and HIV/AIDS, drug and alcohol abuse treatment, genetic testing, and evaluation and treatment for a serious mental illness is treated differently than other types of medical information. For those types of information, Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. is required to get your permission before disclosing that information to others in many circumstances.

Other Uses and Disclosures:

If Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. wishes to use or disclose your medical information for a purpose that is not discussed in this Notice, Averta Insurance Solutions Inc. will seek your permission. If you give your permission to Averta Insurance Solutions Inc., you may take back that permission any time, unless we have already relied on your permission to use or disclose information. If you would ever like to revoke your permission, please notify the Privacy Officer in writing.
