HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices
THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
OnPointPerformance PLLC is required by law to maintain the privacy of your protected health information (PHI), to provide you with notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to PHI, and to notify you in the event of a breach of unsecured PHI.
We are required to abide by the terms of this Notice currently in effect. We reserve the right to change this Notice and make the new Notice effective for all PHI we maintain. Revised notices will be posted on our website.
What Is Protected Health Information?
Protected Health Information (PHI) is health information, including demographic data, that relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health condition; the provision of healthcare to you; or payment for the provision of healthcare to you — and that can be used to identify you. This includes information transmitted or maintained in any form or medium.
How We May Use and Disclose Your PHI
The following categories describe the ways we may use and disclose your PHI. Not every use or disclosure in a category will be listed.
Treatment
We may use and disclose your PHI to provide, coordinate, or manage your healthcare and any related services. For example, we may share your information with laboratories, pharmacies, or other providers involved in your care.
Payment
We may use and disclose your PHI to obtain payment for services we provide to you. For example, we may share information with our payment processors to bill for your membership or services.
Healthcare Operations
We may use and disclose your PHI for our healthcare operations, including quality assessment, provider performance evaluation, training, accreditation, and business management activities necessary to run OnPointPerformance PLLC.
As Required by Law
We will disclose your PHI when required to do so by federal, state, or local law — including reporting requirements to public health authorities, oversight agencies, and law enforcement under specific circumstances.
Business Associates
We may share your PHI with our business associates — third-party companies that perform services on our behalf (such as Practice Better for patient portal services). All business associates are required to sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) and to protect your PHI in compliance with HIPAA.
Uses Requiring Your Authorization
Other uses and disclosures of your PHI not described in this Notice will be made only with your written authorization, including:
- Marketing purposes
- Sale of your PHI
- Most disclosures of psychotherapy notes
- Any other use or disclosure not permitted under HIPAA without authorization
You may revoke a written authorization at any time by notifying us in writing, except to the extent we have already acted on it.

Right to Request Restrictions
You have the right to request restrictions on how we use or disclose your PHI for treatment, payment, or operations. We are not required to agree to all requests.
