Our Mission

​

Confidentiality and HIPAA: Patient information within the electronic medical chart is accessible to trained office staff for scheduling and medication refills. Patient information will be available to the collaborating physician. However, without written consent or a court order, no information will be released to other parties.
 
There are several circumstances where confidentiality cannot be guaranteed, such as:
- If the patient is a danger to themselves or others, or a case of child or elderly abuse/neglect (we are mandatory reporters)
- Court-ordered release of information
- Malpractice lawsuit or billing dispute
- Request by your insurance company for case review
- Credit card statements will show the name of the practice
- Unpaid balances sent to a collection’s agency or other responsible party if bills remain unpaid
- Information exchange within the practice among administrative staff, colleagues, or for professional consultation

​

Practice Process pertaining to medications


Medication Refills: As the patient, it is your responsibility to inform your provider during scheduled appointments if you require a medication refill. The provider maintains the right to decline refill requests in instances of missed appointments or frequent cancellations. Such actions could result in dismissal from the practice. Refills will not be issued after hours or on weekends. Please notify the physician before running out of medications and allow up to 3 business days for the refill process.
 
Controlled Medications: Per legal requirements, an in-person appointment is necessary for the prescription of controlled substances. No prescriptions for controlled substances will be issued without an initial in-person consultation.
 
 
Controlled substances (e.g., stimulants such as Adderall, Vyvanse, Focalin, Benzodiazepines such as Xanax, Klonopin) can only be prescribed in intervals of no more than three months. Appointments must be attended to receive refills due to the strict regulation of these medications. If a controlled medication is lost, it will not be rewritten until the next scheduled refill time. Patients on controlled medications undergo random urine drug screenings while on controlled medications. The provider reserves the right to refuse medication refills and/or dismiss a patient from the practice if urine drug screenings are not completed as requested.
