Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Lyth Health PLLC, doing business as Lyth Aesthetics, is committed to protecting your health information. As your provider, we are required by law to maintain the privacy of your protected health information (PHI), give you this notice describing our privacy practices, and follow the terms currently in effect.
How We Use and Share Your Health Information
We use and share your health information for the following purposes:
● Treatment: To provide, coordinate, or manage your care — for example, reviewing your history before a procedure, or documenting your treatment plan.
● Payment: To bill you or process payment for the services we provide.
● Healthcare Operations: To run our practice smoothly — for example, quality review, staff training, or business planning.
We may also share limited information in the following situations, as permitted or required by law:
● Appointment reminders and treatment options: We may contact you about appointments or other treatments and services that may interest you.
● Family or friends involved in your care: Only with your agreement, or when it is clearly in your best interest (for example, an emergency).
● Public health and safety: When required to prevent a serious threat to health or safety, or as required by law (such as reporting certain injuries).
● Legal and regulatory requirements: For example, in response to a court order, or to state licensing and health authorities.
We will never sell your health information, and we will never use or share your information for marketing purposes without your written authorization. Any use or disclosure not described in this notice will only be made with your written authorization, which you may revoke at any time.
Photographs
Clinical photographs taken to document your treatment are part of your medical record and are protected the same as any other health information. We will never publish, post, or share your photographs — including on social media or in marketing materials — without your separate, written authorization, which you may revoke at any time.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
● Get a copy of your health record: Request a copy of your medical and billing records, on paper or electronically.
● Ask us to correct your health record: Request a correction if you believe your information is incorrect or incomplete.
● Request confidential communication: Ask us to contact you in a specific way (for example, a personal cell phone) or send mail to a different address.
● Ask us to limit what we use or share: Request a restriction on certain uses or disclosures; we are not required to agree, except when you have paid in full, out of pocket, for a service.
● Get a list of those we've shared information with: Request an accounting of certain disclosures made in the six years prior to your request.
● Get a copy of this notice: You may ask for a paper copy at any time, even if you agreed to receive it electronically.
● Choose someone to act for you: If you have given someone medical power of attorney, or if someone is your legal guardian, that person may exercise your rights and make choices about your health information.
● File a complaint: If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may file a complaint with us or with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. We will never retaliate against you for filing a complaint.
Our Responsibilities
● We are required by law to maintain the privacy and security of your protected health information.
● We will let you know promptly if a breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your information.
● We must follow the duties and privacy practices described in this notice and give you a copy of it.
● We will not use or share your information other than as described here, unless you tell us in writing that we can. If you tell us we can, you may change your mind at any time by letting us know in writing.
Changes to This Notice
We may change the terms of this notice, and any changes will apply to all information we already have about you, as well as any information we receive in the future. We will post a copy of the current notice on our website, and it will always state the effective date.
