Privacy Policy for Text Messaging Service

CVC understands the importance of privacy and security when it comes to handling protected health information (PHI). As a text messaging service provider, we are committed to following the standards set forth by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

This privacy policy outlines our practices and procedures for handling PHI through our text messaging service.

Collection and Use of PHI

We collect PHI only as necessary to provide the text messaging service. This may include information such as a patient's name, phone number, and health information.

We use PHI only for the purpose of delivering text messages related to a patient's healthcare. This may include appointment reminders, test results, and other healthcare-related communications.

Protection of PHI

We have implemented appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI. This includes encrypting PHI in transit and at rest, implementing secure authentication procedures, and regularly monitoring and testing the security of our systems.

Disclosure of PHI

We will only disclose PHI as permitted or required by law, or with the patient's written authorization.

Patient Rights

Patients have the right to access, correct, or request the deletion of their PHI. Patients also have the right to receive a copy of this privacy policy and to file a complaint if they believe their rights have been violated.
