Privacy Policy

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the need for privacy and security when storing personal information online. When it comes to healthcare, the situation is no different. At a national level, the healthcare industry is moving toward electronic storage of medical records. As this situation progresses, laws have been enacted to honor the privileged nature of information exchanged between patients and their doctors. HIPAA, the guiding rule of law on patient privacy, asserts that safeguards must be in place for "protected health information", defined by that same law as "individually identifiable information." (45 CFR 160.103)

When you visit a healthcare provider or pharmacy, you will receive a Notice of Privacy Practices that details your privacy rights under HIPAA; including how your information may be used and disclosed. The notice also explains who may have access to your information. The healthcare provider or pharmacy will require you to sign a statement affirming that you received this notice.

In order to help you build a thorough and accurate health record for yourself using NoMoreClipboard.com, you may want to obtain copies of your medical records. We suggest you contact your healthcare providers to determine what information can be made available to you.

NoMoreClipboard.com was designed to support the privacy and security requirements of HIPAA while enabling you to use the service from any computer with Internet access. This service allows you to store, change, and direct your information to healthcare providers, as well as generate a report showing to whom you have sent your information. As it pertains to NoMoreClipboard.com, our responsibilities are to make the information you provide on our site available to you, and to administer the system to ensure that your privacy and security are protected.

Access to records

You have access to enter and update your NoMoreClipboard.com records or to send your NoMoreClipboard.com information from any Web-enabled personal computer to any recipient you choose, typically a physician. NoMoreClipboard.com provides one-way access between you and your healthcare providers.

Any messages sent into your account will appear in your mailbox and you are given the opportunity to accept or reject any information before being incorporated into your profile.

Access to records for read only access

You have the option to create an emergency access PIN for each member that can allow someone, typically an emergency responder, to see selected information from your NoMoreClipboard.com account in a view-only mode. They must know the PIN, name, and date of birth to see the read-only summary. When some uses the PIN, you will be notified by e-mail and a log message will be viewable from within NoMoreClipboard.com. If your PIN is compromised by someone, you may change it at any time.
