At Accuvision LASIK, we prioritize the privacy and security of your health information in full compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This policy outlines how we handle, use, and protect your medical and personal information.

1. Information We Collect: We gather personal health information during consultations, treatment, and follow-up care.

2. Use of Information: Your health data will only be used for treatment, payment, and healthcare operations. We will not share your information without your consent, except as required by law.

3. Patient Rights: You have the right to access, amend, and restrict certain uses of your medical information. You can request a copy of your medical records at any time.

4. Security Measures: We implement stringent security protocols to safeguard your personal health information. This includes encryption, secure storage, and limiting access to authorized personnel only.

5. Disclosures: Your information may be shared with healthcare providers, insurance companies, or as legally mandated. We will only disclose the minimum necessary information.

6. Complaints: If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may file a complaint with our office or with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

7. Changes to Policy: We may update this policy as needed, and any changes will be posted on our website.
