Users may submit referral information that can include patient names, dates of birth, phone numbers, referral notes, uploaded PDF documents, medical records request information, and related workflow details.

Users are responsible for ensuring they are authorized to submit, access, disclose, or use any patient information entered into the platform.

4. How We Protect Information

We use access controls, authentication, secure hosting, permission-based user roles, encrypted transport, secure file storage practices, and audit-related activity tracking to help protect information.

No electronic system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and users must also follow their organization’s privacy and security policies.

5. How Information Is Shared

Information may be shared with authorized users, clinics, referral partners, service providers, or other parties as needed to operate the platform, fulfill referral workflows, comply with legal obligations, or enforce our agreements.

ClinicReferralHQ does not sell patient information.

ClinicReferralHQ is intended to support secure referral workflows. Covered entities, business associates, healthcare providers, and other users remain responsible for determining and satisfying their own legal, regulatory, HIPAA, privacy, consent, and organizational obligations.

When required, use of ClinicReferralHQ may be subject to a Business Associate Agreement or other written agreement.

8. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the platform, maintain records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and support legitimate business purposes.

9. User Responsibilities

Users are responsible for maintaining account security, limiting access to authorized personnel, entering accurate information, following organizational policies, and ensuring they have permission to share referral or patient-related information.
