The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)

Augment Health Technology (AHT) is not a health care provider, and is not a covered entity under HIPAA. If you participate in the AHT Remote Patient Monitoring Program, and if your medical provider is a covered entity under HIPAA, AHT acts as a HIPAA “business associate” of your medical provider. Business associates are not covered entities under HIPAA, but are required to maintain the privacy and security of health information that they create, receive or maintain on behalf of the covered provider. These requirements are contained in an agreement between us and your provider, called a “business associate agreement.”

If you participate in the AHT Remote Patient Monitoring Program, AHT makes the health-related information that we receive from your AHT devices available to your medical provider to enable him or her to monitor your health. If your medical provider is a HIPAA covered entity, we treat individually identifiable health information we receive from you for the Remote Patient Monitoring Program as protected under our business associate agreement with your physician. Our business associate agreement restricts the way we can use and disclose protected health information that we receive for the Remote Patient Monitoring Program. In general, we can use and disclose that information only to provide services to your medical provider and to manage and administer our company, our programs and our services, and to carry out our legal responsibilities if we are required by law to disclose the information.

We may also de-identify your health information or aggregate it with other users’ health information so that it does not identify you personally, and we may use and disclose the de-identified or aggregated information without restriction.
While we protect the privacy of Personally Identifiable Information in the manner described in this policy, we are not required to comply with HIPAA or our HIPAA business associate agreements for information that we receive from customers other than through their participation in the AHT Remote Patient Monitoring Program.
