c. is not part of the information that you would be permitted to inspect and copy; or d. is already accurate and complete. If we deny your request, you have the right to file a statement of disagreement with us and any future disclosures of the disputed information will include your statement. Right to an Accounting of Disclosures . You have the right to request an "accounting" of certain disclosures of your PHI. The accounting will not include (1) disclosures for purposes of treatment, payment, or health care operations; (2) disclosures made to you; (3) disclosures made pursuant to your authorization; (4) disclosures made to friends or family in your presence or because of an emergency; (5) disclosures for national security purposes; and (6) disclosures incidental to otherwise permissible disclos ures. To request this list or accounting of disclosures, you must submit your request in writing. Your request must state the time period you want the accounting to cover, which may not be longer than six years before the date of the request. Your request should indicate in what form you want the list (for example, paper or electronic). The first list you request within a 12 - month period will be provided free of charge. For additional lists, we may charge you for the costs of providing the list. We will notify yo u of the cost involved and you may choose to withdraw or modify your request at that time before any costs are incurred. Right to Request Restrictions . You have the right to request a restriction or limitation on your PHI that we use or disclose for treatment, payment, or health care operations. You also have the right to request a limit on your PHI that we disclose to someone who is involved in your ca re or the payment for your care, such as a family member or friend. For example, you could ask that we not use or disclose information about a surgery that you had. Except as provided in the next paragraph, we are not required to agree to your request. However, if we do agree to the request, we will honor the restriction until you revoke it or we notify you. We will comply with any restriction request if (1) except as otherwise required by law, the disclosure is to a health plan for purposes of carrying out payment or health care operations (and is not for purposes of carrying out treatment); and (2) the PHI p ertains solely to a health care item or service for which the health care provider involved has been paid in full by you or another person. To request restrictions, you must make your request in writing. In your request, you must tell us (1) what information you want to limit; (2) whether you want to limit our use, disclosure, or both; and (3) to whom you want the limits to apply - for example, disclosures to your spouse. Right to Request Confidential Communications . You have the right to request that we communicate with you about medical matters in a certain way or at a certain location. For example, you can ask that we only contact you at work or by mail. To request confidential communications, you must make your request in writing. We will not ask you the reason for your request. Your request must specify how or where you wish to be contacted. We will accommodate all reasonable requests. Right to Be Notified of a Breach . You have the right to be notified in the event that we (or a Business Associate) discover a breach of unsecured PHI. 7
