How will National Jewish Health use my protected health information (PHI)?
Your healthcare team will use your PHI to provide, coordinate, and manage your care. We will use your PHI to communicate with other healthcare providers, such as your referring physician or oxygen supplier, or to contact you for appointment reminders. We will also use your PHI to obtain payment and to support hospital operations, i.e., quality review and physician training. We will use as little PHI as necessary for these purposes. We may share your PHI with other businesses that perform billing and other services for us. We will have written contracts with these businesses that require them to keep your PHI private.
