As a patient, it is completely understandable that you have concerns about the confidentiality of your ADHD assessment results and your privacy. Protecting your privacy is of utmost importance to us.
Healthcare providers and organizations are bound by strict legal obligations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the United States, to maintain the confidentiality of patient information. These laws impose severe penalties for any breach of patient privacy.
Your ADHD assessment will be evaluated by trained and qualified professionals who understand the importance of confidentiality and privacy. All ADHD Online providers are required to uphold ethical standards and prioritize patient confidentiality.
Your patient portal utilizes robust security measures to ensure that your private health information is protected and secured. This includes encryption, access controls, and other technological safeguards to prevent unauthorized access.
Before undergoing the ADHD assessment or treatment, you will receive information about how your data will be used and shared. You have the right to give informed consent and can request clarification on any concerns you may have.
ADHD Online will never share your confidential results with anyone unless you authorize permission to do so.
