Our Commitment

Mbody Physical Therapy and Wellness is required by law to maintain the privacy of your protected health information (PHI), to provide you with this Notice of our legal duties and privacy practices, and to notify you following a breach of unsecured PHI.

How We May Use and Disclose Your Health Information

Treatment: We may use and disclose your PHI to provide, coordinate, or manage your care. For example, your physical therapist may share relevant information with another clinician on our team involved in your treatment.

Payment: We may use and disclose your PHI to bill and receive payment for services. This may include submitting claims to insurance companies or verifying coverage.

Healthcare Operations: We may use and disclose your PHI for internal operations such as quality assessment, staff training, and administrative functions necessary to run our practice.

Other Permitted Disclosures: We may also disclose your PHI without your authorization when required by law, including for public health activities, law enforcement purposes, workers’ compensation, or in response to a court order.

Uses and Disclosures Requiring Your Authorization

Any use or disclosure of your PHI not described above — including most uses for marketing purposes or the sale of your PHI — requires your written authorization. You may revoke an authorization at any time in writing.
