If you pay for a service out of pocket, you can ask us not to share that information for the purpose of payment or our operations with your health insurer. We will say “yes” unless a law requires us to share that information. You can get a list of those with whom we have shared your information for the past 6 years. You can get a copy of this privacy notice. You can designate someone to act in your behalf regarding your health care decisions.
