Privacy Policy
At Soma Integrated Psychiatric, we believe that effective psychiatric care is built on a foundation of trust, recognizing that the information you share with us is deeply personal. Protecting your privacy is not merely a legal obligation but a core value of our practice. When you engage with us, whether through our website or in a clinical setting, we collect specific information to ensure you receive the highest quality of care. This includes your Protected Health Information (PHI), such as your medical history and insurance details, as well as basic technical data like your IP address to maintain the functionality and security of our online presence.
​
To ensure the highest level of protection, all of your health records are stored within a HIPAA-compliant Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. This platform utilizes advanced encryption and strict access controls to keep your data confidential. We strictly limit the use and sharing of your information to purposes necessary for your treatment and our practice operations. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to marketing firms or unauthorized external groups. Any sharing of information with third parties, such as insurance providers for claims processing, pharmacies for prescriptions, or business associates who manage our billing, is done solely to facilitate your care. These partners are contractually bound to uphold the same rigorous privacy standards that we follow.
​
We take significant measures to secure the data you entrust to us, utilizing industry-standard encryption for all information transmitted through our website. While we may use cookies to help our site run smoothly, we never use them to track your health behaviors across the internet. Finally, because standard email and SMS text messaging are not always secure, we strongly encourage you to use our encrypted patient portal for all sensitive communications regarding your health and treatment.
