Privacy Policy
Privacy Statement Effective Date: April 2010
Collection of Non-Public Personal
Information. As part of our operating procedures in
offering prescription related services, BeyondRx needs to obtain information
for the
enrollment and maintenance of member participation (eligibility) in our system,
the
payment of prescription drugs and related services and the healthcare operations
of client
health plans. In providing these services, BeyondRx and its personnel or
agents may collect
nonpublic personal information (which includes both nonpublic personal and
health
information about our members) such as:
- Member Name
- Addresses
- Telephone Numbers
- Email Addresses
- Health Information
- Prescription History List
- Physician Names
Workforce Access to Information. Internally, BeyondRx limits
access to members'
information to those employees and workforce members who need the information
to
perform their job functions. Employees and workforce members who misuse information
are subject to disciplinary action or termination.
Use of Information. BeyondRx
uses or shares your health information only for the
purposes of performing functions related to payment for your prescription
drugs and related
services and your health plan’s healthcare operations. BeyondRx also uses
and shares your
nonpublic personal information in accordance with your consent or as required
or permitted
by law. BeyondRx does not sell, rent, lease or otherwise disclose members’
personal
information for purposes unrelated to our products and services.
Disclosure
of Information to Other Persons. BeyondRx may disclose your nonpublic
personal prescription information to consultants, agents, brokers, third
party administrators,
plan benefit managers or other parties who perform services for us or your
health plan and
to pharmacists and physicians that provide professional services to you and
your household
members. We also may disclose your nonpublic prescription information to
other third
parties as authorized by you, or as required or permitted by law.
Disclosures
Required by Law. In certain circumstances, BeyondRx may be legally
compelled to release your nonpublic personal information in response to a
court or
administrative order, subpoena, search warrant, law or regulation.
Safeguarding
Information. BeyondRx safeguards and secures members’ nonpublic
personal information that we collect, receive or maintain. We maintain administrative,
technical and physical safeguards to ensure the security and confidentiality
of our members’
health information, to protect against anticipated threats or hazards to
such information,
and to protect against unauthorized access to or use of such information.
BeyondRx utilizes
commercial firewalls and router access control lists at public network access
points to
appropriately restrict network traffic and uses a secure socket layer (“SSL”)
protocol for all
outgoing transmissions. Our network address space, where nonpublic personal
information
is stored and protected, is not advertised to the internet, and outside requests
for
information are blocked. A user must be properly authenticated with the appropriate
access
credentials to access sensitive information.
“Members Only” Section. Our website
includes a “members only” section. This Section
may allow you, as an adult member, access to the prescription drug utilization
of other
members in your household and under 18 years of age. When registering to
use the
“members only” section, you may elect to view the prescription utilization
for any such
other household members. To view the prescription utilization, you must certify
that permission has been obtained from them and agree to use their prescription
utilization
information solely for the purposes of prescription benefit management. You
also must
agree not to use any adult dependant's prescription history for any other
purpose without
the written consent of that dependent. BEYONDRX DISCLAIMS ALL PRESENT AND
FUTURE LIABILITY FOR ANY USE BY A MEMBER OR YOU OF ANOTHER HOUSEHOLD MEMBER’S
NON-PUBLIC PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THE MEMBER’S
CERTIFICATION AND AGREEMENT.
