QI Confidentiality

Privacy and health information is a very important topic for health plans, providers, and members. The law sets rules and limits on who can look at and receive a member’s information.

Information can be used and shared:

  • with your insurer for health care operations such as quality improvement activities
  • to pay for health care
  • to protect the public’s health, such as reporting information when the flu is in your area
  • to make required reports to the police, such as reporting gunshot wounds
  • with the member on request.

Health plans and providers are required to have a written privacy procedure, including a description of staff that has access to protected information, how it will be used, how it will be stored and when it may be disclosed. In addition, all employees need to be trained on the privacy policies and procedures on a periodic basis.

When HealthAmerica conducts the yearly medical record review, the on-site audit tool includes a question on whether the office has a policy and conducts training with the staff on confidentiality.

HealthAmerica has written policies for confidentiality. A copy of this policy can be obtained form your HealthAmerica Provider Relations representative or found in the Provider Manual

Clinical Practice Guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines are evidence-based processes, procedures, and methodologies determined to be the most currently recognized practices to follow in treating and managing patients with specific diseases and illnesses. Published by professional speciality groups, these guidelines have been researched, reviewed, and recommended to our participating provider network by HealthAmerica. The guidelines are meant to assist you in the evaluation and treatment of your patients' health, but are not intended to replace clinical judgment or create a mandatory course of action for all patients who experience a similar condition.
