Privacy Policy

Introduction

The purpose of this privacy policy is to provide you, our patient, on how your personal information and health information is collected and used within our practice, and the circumstances in which we may share it with a third party.
Privacy and Confidentiality
All patient information is private and confidentiality and patient information must be maintained at all times. The rights of every patient are to be respected. All information collected by this practice in providing a health service is deemed to be private and confidential. This practice complies with Federal and State privacy regulations including the Privacy Act 1998, the Australian Privacy Principles (APP’s) from Schedule 1 of the Privacy Amendment (Enhancing Privacy Protection) Act 2012 and South Australian Health Records Act 2001 as well as the standards set out in the RACGP Handbook for the Management of Health Information in Private Medical Practice 5th Edition.
Patients Consent
We require your consent to collect and use information about you. This will be done when you join the surgery by completing and signing our new patient form. You can amend your consent at any time, by speaking with our Business Manager or your treating doctor or nurse. Employees of this practice will not discuss or in any way reveal patient conditions or documentation to unauthorised staff, colleagues, other patients, family, or friends, whether at the practice or outside it, such as in the home or at social occasions or in social media. This includes patient’s accounts, referral letters or other clinical documentation. General Practitioners and staff are aware of confidentiality requirements for all patient encounters and recognise that significant breaches of confidentiality may provide grounds for disciplinary action or dismissal. Every employee of this practice is aware of the privacy policy and has signed a privacy statement as part of their terms and conditions of employment. This privacy statement continues to be binding on employees even after their employment has terminated.

Personal information collected by us may be used or disclosed:
Other than as described in this Policy or permitted under the National Privacy Act, this Practice uses its reasonable endeavours to ensure that identifying health information is not disclosed to any person. Some of this information will be used for directly related reasons such as providing a referral to a specialist, hospital, or other health service. We may also use information within the practice for our own quality assurance and education programs, to provide you with reminder letters, to inform you of health-related issues or programs which may be of interest and for accounting purposes, including Medicare billing. Information may also be provided to maintain national health databases, particularly for childhood immunisation.
Security of Our Patients Records

Our patient records are maintained in a secure off-site computer system. The information recorded is protected by an individual password system and is accessible only to authorized personnel. Records will be retained for at least 7 years after the last encounter in the case of adults and for children, until they have attained the age of 25 years. Paper based information that is no longer required is destroyed by shredding. All authorized practice doctors and staff have access to your information – if you see different doctors, they all have access to your record unless you specifically request otherwise. At times we write to our patients about health-related matters and reminders for follow up appointments. Your name can be removed from such lists if required.
