Notice of Privacy Practices
This notice summarizes how protected health information may be used and disclosed when applicable, and the rights individuals may have under health privacy law. Service-specific notices, authorizations, and legal requirements may provide additional detail.
When permitted by law, protected health information may be used or disclosed for treatment, payment, and healthcare operations. This can include care coordination, benefits and billing activities, quality improvement, training, and other functions necessary to provide and support services.
Health information may also be used or disclosed when permitted or required by law, including for certain public-health activities, health oversight, legal proceedings, law-enforcement purposes, prevention of serious threats to health or safety, and other legally authorized circumstances.
Where authorization is required, LEWU will request appropriate written permission before using or disclosing information for that purpose.
Depending on the law and circumstances, you may have rights to request access to or copies of records, request corrections, request certain restrictions, request confidential communications, receive an accounting of certain disclosures, and receive a paper copy of an applicable privacy notice.
Some requests are subject to legal limits, identity verification, documentation requirements, or permitted fees.
LEWU is committed to protecting health information as required by applicable law, providing required notices, and notifying affected individuals when a legally reportable breach of unsecured protected health information occurs.
LEWU may revise its privacy practices and notices when permitted by law. The current notice will be made available through appropriate channels.
For help with a privacy request or concern, contact LEWU through the Contact Us page or call +1 (301)-569-2585 so your question can be routed appropriately.
You will not be retaliated against for making a good-faith privacy complaint or exercising a privacy right available to you under applicable law.
