InnerSourced Solutions, Inc. is required by law to maintain privacy for your protected health information, in accordance with HIPAA, and has safeguards in place to do so. We take the following steps to protect your personal information:

• Compliance with the Federal Code of Federal Regulations regarding confidentiality (CFR 42), and maintains client information in accordance with law, including keeping confidential all records relating to client identity, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.

• Managing client data in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, which details data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information.

• Providing client information to other agencies or individuals without a specific release only in compliance with current HIPPA requirements.

  • Such requests typically pertain to the information required by insurance companies. Data privacy safeguards are in place during transmission.

  • Requests may pertain to information collected for evaluation, which is rendered anonymous at collection (i.e., it does not contain identifying client data).

  • We include a copy of these requirements in our “Notice of Health Information Practices,” which every client receives a copy of during intake.

• Storing client records in a manner that ensures the protection of confidential information.

• Holding electronic data as confidential, ensuring client information stays confidential in the course of electronic transmissions.
