AGS Health, LLC ("AGS Health") shares a commitment with our Covered Entity customers to protect the security and privacy of Protected Health Information (“PHI”) that we obtain subject to the terms of our service agreements and Business Associate Agreements.
This Policy is provided to help you better understand how AGS Health captures, uses, discloses, and protects PHI in accordance with the terms of Business Associate Agreements and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, as amended, including without limitation the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009 (collectively referred to herein as "HIPAA").
Generally, we may only use or access PHI to provide services to our Covered Entity customers as further specified in our Business Associate Agreement and other agreements with our Covered Entity customers, if such use or disclosure of PHI is also permitted or required by HIPAA. We may also use PHI for our management, administration, data aggregation purposes, and legal obligations to the extent that such use of PHI is permitted or required by the Business Associate Agreement and not prohibited by law. Where permitted by our Business Associate Agreement, we may also de-identify PHI in accordance with HIPAA and any such de-identified information is no longer subject to HIPAA.
In the event that PHI is disclosed to a subcontractor or agent, we will impose a Business Associate Agreement on such subcontractor or agent to obligate such party to abide by the same restrictions and conditions that apply to us under the Business Associate Agreement with respect to PHI, including the implementation of reasonable and appropriate safeguards.
We may also use PHI to report violations of law to appropriate federal and state authorities and for other purposes in accordance with and to the extent permitted by HIPAA and our Business Associate Agreement.
We have established and maintain appropriate safeguards to prevent the use or disclosure of PHI other than as provided for by our services agreements, our Business Associate Agreements, and HIPAA. These safeguards include administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that reasonably and appropriately protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the PHI that we access, receive, process, maintain, and/or transmit on behalf of our Covered Entity customers.
Examples of such safeguards include but are not limited to:
We have established policies and procedures for reporting breaches of unsecured PHI to the Covered Entity without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 days after discovery.
In the event of a use or disclosure of PHI that is in violation of the requirements of a Business Associate Agreement or HIPAA, we will take steps to mitigate any known, harmful effect resulting from the violation to the extent practicable.
Such measures will include:
As provided in the Business Associate Agreement, we will make available to our Covered Entity customers that information necessary for the Covered Entity to provide individuals with their rights of access, amendment, and accounting of disclosures in accordance with HIPAA.
Upon request from such Covered Entity, we will make our internal practices, books, and records available to the Covered Entity or the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for the purposes of determining compliance with the terms of the Business Associate Agreement and HIPAA regulations.
We will generally maintain documentation required by HIPAA (e.g., policies and procedures, training records) for six years and/or as otherwise mandated by our Business Associate Agreements and HIPAA.
This policy will be reviewed on a regular basis and updated as necessary to ensure continued compliance with HIPAA.
