CONFIDENTIALITY DISCLOSURE IMPRINT AREA<br />

KPNC's Mental Health and Chemical Dependency Services:Your Right to Privacy<br />

Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong>'s Mental Health and Chemical Dependency (MH/CD) Program is strongly committed to protecting<br />

your privacy.<strong>The</strong> Northern California Notice of Privacy provides general information about how your medical information<br />

is used and protected. Federal and state law protects the confidentiality of chemical dependency records.Violation of<br />

federal confidentiality laws related to chemical dependency programs is a crime. Suspected violations may be reported to<br />

the appropriate authorities.<br />

Except under limited circumstances (see examples below), Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong>'s MH/CD program may not, without your<br />

written permission, disclose information about your care to anyone outside of Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong>. For your privacy,<br />

psychotherapy records of your MH/CD visits are kept separate from your outpatient medical record. Regardless of the type<br />

of visit, however,for your personal safety, your medication visits, the list of medications, laboratory results, a description of<br />

medication results, and prognosis are included in your medical record, either on paper or electronically.<br />

Coordination of Care<br />

At Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong> MH/CD services staff are considered one department, the Department of Psychiatry.<strong>The</strong>refore, any<br />

MH/CD information can be shared between Mental Health staff and Chemical Dependency staff within the department<br />

without your written permission. However,the regulations pertaining to disclosing information outside the Department of<br />

Psychiatry are different for mental health patient information than for chemical dependency patient information.<br />

Patients ReceivingOnly Mental Health Care: For mental health care, your permission is not requiredto coordinate your care<br />

with other providerswithin Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong>,such as your primarycare physician.MentalHealth diagnosesand appointment<br />

dates are available to your other Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong> treating providers on a need-to-know basis. However,ordinarily we<br />

will discuss with you any necessary sharing of other mental health information. When we share information we only share<br />

that information which, in our professional judgment, we believe is needed for appropriate medical care by that provider.<br />

Patients Receiving Chemical Dependency Care: For chemical dependency care (which would include mental health care<br />

that is part of your chemical dependency care), your written authorization is normally required before any information<br />

about chemical dependency treatment can be disclosed to anyone outside the Department of Psychiatry. For your safety<br />

and effective coordination of your health care, we strongly believe it is important for us to share information about your<br />

chemical dependency treatment with your other Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong> treating providers. In order for us to do that, you must<br />

sign a written authorization to allow us to share your chemical dependency patient information with them.<br />

Exceptions to Confidentiality Rules<br />

Sometimes the law authorizes us to disclose information about you without your permission, such as disclosures:<br />

· in medical and psychiatric emergencies in which the information is essential to an individual's safety<br />

· to warn potential victims of violent acts<br />

· to qualified personnel for audit, program evaluation, or research;for example, patient surveys<br />

· for reporting of suspected child abuse or neglect<br />

· to report the commission of crimes on our premises or against our program personnel<br />

· in response to court orders that comply with the standards for the type of record covered by the order<br />

· in reports to the Department of Motor Vehicles due to lapses of consciousness as required by law<br />

If at any time you have concerns about your privacy,you are encouraged to request clarification from your therapist or a<br />

staff member.<br />

Acknowledgment:<br />

By signing your name in the space below, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this document.<br />

CONFIDENTIALITY AND CONSENT TO TREATMENT IMPRINT AREA<br />

~Iental Health and Chemical Dependency<br />

Your Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong> Psychiatry Department is strongly committed to your right to privacy.Toward thie;<br />

end, records related to your visits in the Psychiatry Clinic are generally kept separate from your medical record.<br />

However, for your safety, any medications you may be prescribed in the Psychiatry Clinic are noted in your<br />

medical chart. Information might be exchanged between a Kaiser <strong>Permanente</strong> mental health provider and<br />

another Kaiser Pennanente provider when the information is pertinent to the direct clinical care of the individual.<br />

Also, there are some specific circumstances when California law requires the release of certain psychiatric<br />

information. For example, if you are involved in certain legal actions in which your emoti9nal or mental state is<br />

an issue, we may be required by law to release infonnation from your psychiatric records to parties involved in<br />

that legal action. Any time you are asked to sign a release of information,.,talkto your therapist if you have any<br />

concerns about what is in your record.<br />

In addition, we may be required to report, to police or other governmental agencies, certain infonnation<br />

that relates to either actual or potential violent or abusive acts of which we might become aware.<br />

Consent to Treatment<br />

Most people who participate in behavioral or mental health treatment benefit from it. Like most kinds of<br />

health care, this kind of treatment requires a very active effort on your part if you are going to get something out<br />

of it. In addition, there may be certain kinds of risks involved. For example, the therapy process can be challenging<br />

and sometimes may involve experiencing some uncomfortable feelings, or engaging in difficult interactions,<br />

or facing difficult aspects of your life. Nevertheless, most people find the benefits outweigh any such<br />

risks. In fact, sometimes there can be more risks associated with not participating in therapy.<br />

If you ~ee a physician as part of your care, he or she may prescribe medication for you. If so, you'll be<br />

advised at that time of the benefits and any risks of the medications.<br />

It is important that you participate in this treatment willingly. If you have any questions or concerns about<br />

this document, about the services being provided to you, or about your treatment options, you should definitely<br />

ask your therapist.<br />

Acknowledgment<br />

By signing your name in the space below, you are acknowledging that you have read and understood this<br />

document and that you voluntarily agree to participate in this treatment. If the persoll receiving care is a minor;<br />

a parent or legal guardian acknoH;ledgeshaving read and understood this document and voluntarily agrees to<br />

the minor's participation in the treatment (except in certail1legally exempt situations).<br />
