Notice of Privacy Practices

This notice describes how medical information about you or your child may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to this information. Please review it carefully.

Target ABA, LLC (doing business as On Target ABA) is required by law to maintain the privacy of protected health information (PHI) and to give you notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to PHI.

How we may use and disclose your PHI

Treatment. We may use and disclose PHI to provide, coordinate, or manage ABA and related services. For example, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) may share behavior data with the Registered Behavior Technician working with your child, or with your child’s physician for care coordination.

Payment. We may use and disclose PHI to obtain payment for services, for example by submitting claims and session documentation to your insurance plan or to Medicaid.

Health care operations. We may use and disclose PHI for activities needed to run our practice, such as quality review, clinical supervision, staff training, and audits.

Other permitted and required disclosures

We may also use or disclose PHI without your authorization when required by law (for example, abuse or neglect reporting, court orders, and public health reporting), to prevent a serious threat to health or safety, for workers’ compensation, and for health oversight activities.

Uses and disclosures that require your authorization

Other uses and disclosures, including most uses of psychotherapy notes, marketing, and sale of PHI, require your written authorization. You may revoke an authorization in writing at any time.

Your rights

You have the right to inspect and get a copy of your PHI; to request an amendment; to receive an accounting of certain disclosures; to request restrictions on certain uses and disclosures; to request confidential communications; to receive a paper copy of this notice; and to file a complaint with us or with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights. We will not retaliate against you for filing a complaint.

Our duties

We are required by law to maintain the privacy of PHI, to provide this notice of our legal duties and privacy practices, to follow the terms of the notice currently in effect, and to notify you in the event of a breach of unsecured PHI. We may change this notice; any change will apply to all PHI we maintain, and the updated notice will be posted on this page.
