How We Protect Your Privacy We are required by law to protect the privacy of your protected health information (PHI) and to provide you with this notice of our privacy practices.

When we need to disclose individually identifiable information, we will follow the policies described in this Notice to protect your confidentiality. We maintain confidential information and have procedures for accessing and storing confidential records. We restrict internal access to your confidential information to employees who need that information to provide your benefits. We train those individuals on policies and procedures designed to protect your privacy. Our Privacy Officer monitors how we follow those policies and procedures and educates our organization on this important topic. |
How We May Use and Disclose Your Protected Health Information We will not use your confidential information or disclose it to others without your written authorization, except for the following purposes. When required by law, we will restrict disclosures to the Limited Data Set, or otherwise as necessary, to the minimum necessary information to accomplish the intended purpose.

Uses and Disclosures With Your Written Authorization We will not use or disclose your confidential information for any purpose other than the purposes described in this Notice, without your written authorization. For example, we will not (1) supply confidential information to another company for its marketing purposes (unless it is for certain limited Health Care Operations), (2) sell your confidential information (unless under strict legal restrictions), or (3) provide your confidential information to a potential employer with whom you are seeking employment without your signed authorization.

Right to inspect and copy your protected health information. Except for limited circumstances, you may review and copy your PHI. Your request must be addressed to the Privacy Officer.

If the information you request is in an electronic health record, you may request that these records be transmitted electronically to yourself or a designated individual. If you request copies of your PHI, we may charge you a reasonable fee to cover the cost. Alternatively, we may provide you with a summary or explanation of your PHI, upon your request if you agree to the rules and cost (if any) in advance. |

Right to obtain a list of the disclosures. You have the right to get a list of PHI disclosures, which is also referred to as an accounting. You must make a written request to the Privacy Officer to obtain this information. The list will not include disclosures we have made as authorized by law.

The first list you request within a 12-month period will be free. You may be charged for providing any additional lists within a 12-month period. |
Right to choose how we communicate with you. You have the right to ask that we send information to you at a specific address (for example, at work rather than at home) or in a specific manner (for example, by e-mail rather than by regular mail).

Notice Regarding Your Wellness Program |
Your wellness program is a voluntary wellness program available to all eligible individuals. The program is administered according to federal rules permitting employer-sponsored wellness programs that seek to improve individual health or prevent disease, including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as applicable, among others. If you choose to participate in the wellness program you may be asked to complete a voluntary Health Assessment (HA) (also referred to as Health Risk Assessment (HRA), Health Risk Questionnaire (HRQ), Wellness Assessment (WA), Personal Health Assessment (PHA), Health Risk Evaluation (HRE) or Health Behavior Questionnaire (HBQ) that asks a series of questions about your health-related activities and behaviors and whether you have or had certain medical conditions (e.g., cancer, diabetes, or heart disease). You may also be asked to complete a biometric screening, which will include a blood test for various biometric measurements, e.g., BMI, Blood Pressure, Glucose, etc. You are not required to complete the HA or to participate in the blood test and/or other medical examinations. However, eligible individuals who choose to participate in the wellness program may receive an incentive for completing the HA or participating in the biometric screening. Although you are not required to complete the HA or participate in the biometric screening, only eligible individuals who do so will receive any available incentives. Additional incentives may be available for individuals who participate in certain health-related activities or achieve certain health outcomes, e.g., weight loss, smoking cessation, lower blood pressure, etc. If you are unable to participate in any of the health-related activities or achieve any of the health outcomes required to earn an incentive, you are entitled to a reasonable accommodation or an alternative standard. You may request a reasonable accommodation or an alternative standard by contacting your wellness program administrator or Human Resources department. The information from your HA and the results from your biometric screening will be used to provide you with information to help you understand your current health and potential risks, and may also be used to offer you services through the wellness program, such as coaching, iKnowledge courses, etc. You also are encouraged to share your results or concerns with your own doctor. |
Protections from Disclosure of Medical Information |
We are required by law to maintain the privacy and security of your personally identifiable health information. Although the wellness program and your employer may use aggregate information it collects to design a program based on identified health risks in the workplace, the wellness program will never disclose any of your personal information either publicly or to the employer, except as necessary to respond to a request from you for a reasonable accommodation needed to participate in the wellness program, or as expressly permitted by law. Medical information that personally identifies you that is provided in connection with the wellness program will not be provided to your supervisors or managers and may never be used to make decisions regarding your employment. Your health information will not be sold, exchanged, transferred, or otherwise disclosed except to the extent permitted by law to carry out specific activities related to the wellness program, and you will not be asked or required to waive the confidentiality of your health information as a condition of participating in the wellness program or receiving an incentive. Anyone who receives your information for purposes of providing you services as part of the wellness program will abide by the same confidentiality requirements. The only individual(s) who will receive your personally identifiable health information is (are) those individuals determined to be necessary such as a “qualified health professional”, a “wellness program administrator” or a “health coach" in order to provide you with services under the wellness program. In addition, all medical information obtained through the wellness program will be maintained separate from your personnel records, information stored electronically will be encrypted, and no information you provide as part of the wellness program will be used in making any employment decision. Appropriate precautions will be taken to avoid any data breach, and in the event a data breach occurs involving information you provide in connection with the wellness program, we will notify you immediately. You may not be discriminated against in employment because of the medical information you provide as part of participating in the wellness program, nor may you be subjected to retaliation if you choose not to participate. If you have questions or concerns regarding this notice, or about protections against discrimination and retaliation, please contact your wellness program administrator or Human Resources department. |
