Effective October 1, 2007
THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET
ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT OUR
OFFICE AT THE ADDRESS OR PHONE NUMBER AT THE TOP OF THIS NOTICE.
Who will follow this notice?
The information privacy practices in this notice will be followed by:
Any healthcare professional that treats you at any of our locations.
While each of these facilities and affiliates operates independently, they may share your health
information for coordination of care treatment, payment and healthcare operations purposes.
Our pledge to you:
We understand that medical information about you is personal. We are committed to
protecting medical information about you. We create a record of the care and services you
receive to provide quality care and to comply with legal requirements. This notice applies to all
of the records of your care generated by any of the separate facilities and providers described
above. We are required by law to:
Keep medical information about you private;
Give you this notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to
medical information about you; and
Follow the terms of the notice that is currently in effect.
How we may use disclose medical information about
you:
We may use and disclose medical information about you without your prior
authorization for treatment (such as sending medical information about you to a
specialist as part of a referral) (this includes psychiatric or HIV information if
needed for the purposes of your diagnosis and treatment); to obtain payment
for treatment (such as sending billing information to your insurance company or
Medicare); and to support our healthcare operations (such as comparing patient
data to improve treatment methods or for professional education purposes)
(Note: only limited psychiatric or HIV information may be disclosed for billing
purposes without your authorization). If you are treated in a specialized
substance abuse program, your special authorization will be needed for most
disclosures other than emergencies).
Other examples of such uses and disclosures include contacting you for
appointment reminders and telling you about recommending possible
treatment options, alternatives, health related benefits or services that
may be of interest to you. We may also contact you to support our fundraising
efforts.
We may use or disclose medical information about you without your prior
authorization for several other reasons. Subject to certain requirements, we
may give our medical information about you, without prior authorization for
public health purposes, abuses or neglect reporting, health oversight
audits or inspections, medical examiners, funeral arrangements and
organ donation, workers’ compensation purposes, emergencies, national
security and other specialized government functions, and for members of
the Armed Forces as required by Military Command authorities. We also
disclose medical information when required by law, such as in response to a
request from law enforcement in specific circumstances, or in response to
valid judicial or administrative orders or other legal process.
Under certain circumstances, we may use and disclose health information
about you for research purposes, subject to a special approval process. We
may also allow potential researchers to review information that may help them
prepare for research, so long as the health information they review does not
leave our facility, and so long as they agree to specific privacy protections.
We may disclose medical information about you to a friend or family member
whom you designate or in appropriate circumstances, unless you request a
restriction. We may also disclose information to disaster relief authorities so that
your family can be notified of your location and condition.
Other uses of Medical Information:
In any other situation not covered by this notice, we will ask for your written
authorization before using or disclosing medical information about you. If you
choose to authorized use or disclosure, you can later revoke that authorization
by notifying us in writing of your decision.
Right to Access and or Amend Your Records:
In most cases, you have the right to look at or get a copy of medical information
that we use to make decisions about your care, when you submit a written
request. If you request copies, we may charge a fee for the cost of copying,
mailing, or other related supplies. If we deny your request to review or obtain a
copy, you may submit a written request for a review of that decision.
If you believe that information in your record is incorrect or that important
information is missing, you have the right to request that we correct the records,
by submitting a request in writing that provides your reason for requesting the
amendment. We could deny your request to amend a record if the information
is not maintained by us; or if we determine that your record is accurate. You
may submit a written statement of disagreement with a decision by us not to
amend a record.
Right to an Accounting:
You have the right to request a list accounting for any disclosures of your health
information we have made, except for uses and disclosures for treatment,
payment, and healthcare operations, circumstances in which you have
specifically authorized such disclosure, and certain other exceptions.
To request this list of disclosures, indicate the relevant period, which must be
after April 14, 2003, but in no event for more than at least six years. You must
submit your request in writing to our office listed at the top of this page.
Right to Request Restrictions:
You may request, in writing, that we not use or disclose medical information about you for
treatment, payment or healthcare operations or to persons involved in your care except when
specifically authorized by you, when required by law, or in an emergency. We will consider
your request and work to accommodate it when possible, but we are not legally required to
accept it. We will inform you of our decision on your request.
All written requests or appeals should be submitted to the office listed at the top of this page.
Requests for Confidential Communication:
You have the right to request that medical information about you be communicated to you in a
confidential manner, such as sending mail to an address other than your home, by notifying us
in writing of the specific way or location for us to communicate with you.
Right to request a paper copy of this Notice:
You may receive a paper copy of this Notice from us upon request, even if you have agreed to
receive this notice electronically.

in our policies, we will change our notice and post the new notice in waiting areas, exam
rooms, and on our website at www.ultimate-therapy.com. You can receive a copy of the
current notice at any time. The effective date is listed at the end. Copies of the current notice
will be available each time you come to our facility for treatment. You will be asked to

Important Company Policies
We strive to provide you the best personalized care available. To make this possible we adhere to a set of
very important polices. Please read them carefully, and indicate your agreement by signing at the bottom of
the page.
Late Policy
We greatly appreciate you allowing us to provide you with the best physical therapy possible. We want to
continue to be able to do this. Our therapists and staff know your time is important and we hope you
understand the value of our time. We want to be able to provide every patient with the one on one attention
they require. Arriving late for any service may require us to shorten the length of service, change the
therapist or reschedule for another day.
24 Hour Advance Notice Fee
If you wish to change or cancel an appointment we require a minimum 24-hour advance notice. Anything
less will result in a $15 fee charged to your account. Keep in mind this fee is not the responsibility of your
insurance company, it will be an out of pocket expense. It costs money to make appointments available to
you. Whether you attend or not we still accrue the expenses (for staff wages, rent, etc.). We don’t charge
you the actual cost of your appointment but rather a mere $15 fee. We do NOT make money with this
charge; it’s only to act as a deterrent from making last minute changes. Advance notice allows someone
else (who needs it) time to reserve it in place of you. Please be courteous and responsible. Thank you.
No Shows
Please be courteous to our staff and other clients schedules. If you fail to show for an appointment 2 times
without contacting Ultimate Therapy with a valid excuse, all future appointments will be removed and a
$25 fee charged to your account for each no-show appointment. You may re-schedule appointments on a
“first come first serve basis.” After 3 no-show appointments you will no longer be permitted to schedule
any appointments in the future. If a situation arises and you know you will not be able to make your
appointment please contact the office at any hour and leave a message, the phone has 24 hour voicemail
and we will receive the message at the beginning of the next business day.
Cellular Phones
Cell phones must be shut off or silent. We realize emergencies may arise and therefore allow you to carry
your cell phone during your session, however, please be courteous and set to silent mode or turn off.
Children
Children requiring supervision are not allowed to attend sessions with you. If your child does not require
supervision and is capable of waiting for you quietly then you may bring them. If any disturbance is caused
to other patients or staff members you may be asked to terminate your session early and tend to your child.
Payment
“It is unlawful to routinely avoid paying your co-pay, deductible or coinsurance payments.” Failure to
comply places you in violation of the following laws: Federal False Claims Act, Federal Anti-Kickback
Statute, Federal Insurance Fraud Laws, and State Insurance Fraud Laws. Failure to comply may result in
civil money penalties(CMP) in accordance with the new provision section 1128A(a)(5) of the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 [section 231(h) of HIPPA].

I acknowledge and understand that I have been referred to Ultimate Therapy for evaluation and treatment of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. I understand that to evaluate my condition it may be necessary, initially and periodically, to have my physical therapist perform an internal pelvic floor muscle exam to
assess strength, range of motion, scar mobility and muscle length. Such evaluation and treatment may
include, but not be limited to, the following: observation, palpation, use of vaginal cones, vaginal or rectal sensors for biofeedback and/or electrical stimulation, exercise, internal soft tissue mobilization, education, instruction and neuromuscular techniques of the perineal area. Treatment may also include joint
mobilization, modalities such as ultrasound and electrical stimulation, iontophoresis, etc.
I understand that no guarantees have been or can be provided regarding the success of therapy. I hereby
request and consents to the evaluation and treatment to be provided by the physical therapists and physical therapy assistants of Ultimate Therapy.
