Parts 160 & 164, and the Confidentiality Law, 42 U.S.C. § 290dd-2, 42 C.F.R. Part 2. Under these laws, Chapman House, Inc. Recovery Center (Chapman House, Inc.) may not say to a person outside Chapman House, Inc. that you attend the program, nor may Chapman House, Inc. disclose any information identifying a client as an alcohol or drug abuser, or disclose any other protected information except as permitted by federal law.

Chapman House, Inc. must obtain your written consent before it can disclose information about a client for payment purposes. For example, Chapman House, Inc. must obtain clients' written consent before it can disclose information to their health insurer in order to be paid for services. Generally, a client must also sign a written consent before Chapman House, Inc. can share information for treatment purposes or for health care operations. However, federal law permits Chapman House, Inc. to disclose information without a client’s written permission:

  1. Pursuant to an agreement with a qualified service organization/ business associate;
  2. For research, audit or evaluations;

  4. To medical personnel in a medical emergency;
  5. To appropriate authorities to report suspected child abuse or neglect;
  6. As allowed by a court order.

For example, Chapman House, Inc. can disclose information without clients consent to obtain legal or financial services, or to another medical facility to provide health care for a client, as long as there is a qualified service organization / business associate agreement in place.

Before Chapman House, Inc. can use or disclose any information about a clients health in a manner which is not described above, it must first obtain the clients specific written consent allowing it to make the disclosure. Any such written consent may be revoked by the client in writing.

Client Rights

Under HIPAA clients have the right to request restrictions on certain uses and disclosures of their health information. Chapman House, Inc. is not required to agree to any restrictions requested, but if it does agree then it is bound by that agreement and may not use or disclose any information which have restricted except as necessary in a medical emergency.

Clients have the right to request that we communicate with them by alternative means or at an alternative location. Chapman House, Inc. will accommodate such requests that are reasonable and will not request an explanation from them. Under HIPAA clients also have the right to inspect and copy their own health information maintained by Chapman House, Inc., except to the extent that the information contains psychotherapy notes or information compiled for use in a civil, criminal or administrative proceeding or in other limited circumstances.

Under HIPAA clients also have the right, with some exceptions, to amend health care information maintained in Chapman House, Inc.’s records, and to request and receive an accounting of disclosures of client health related information made by Chapman House, Inc. during the six years prior to their request. Clients also have the right to receive a paper copy of this notice.

Chapman House, Inc.’s Duties

Chapman House, Inc. is required by law to maintain the privacy of a client’s health information and to provide them with notice of its legal duties and privacy practices with respect to their health information. Chapman House, Inc. is required by law to abide by the terms of this notice. Chapman House, Inc. reserves the right to change the terms of this notice and to make new notice provisions effective for all protected health information it maintains. Clients will be notified in writing of any such changes.

Complaints and Reporting Violations

Clients may complain to Chapman House, Inc. and the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services if they believe that their privacy rights have been violated under HIPAA. Client will not be retaliated against for filing such a complaint.

Violation of the Confidentiality Law by a program is a crime. Suspected violations of the Confidentiality Law may be reported to the United States Attorney in the district where the violation occurs.
