Notice of Privacy Practices

Last updated September 29, 2026 · Pending legal review

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.

Effective date: September 29, 2026

Who We Are

This Notice of Privacy Practices ("Notice") describes the privacy practices of Humangevity Health, Inc. (also doing business as Longevity Healthcare), Peter J. Muran, M.D. ("Humangevity Health," "we," "us," or "our"), including our physicians and other health care professionals, our staff, and others who work on our behalf. It applies to the health information we create or receive about you in providing your care.

"Protected health information" ("PHI") is information that identifies you and relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition, the health care you receive, or payment for that care.

This Notice applies to your PHI. For information about data collected through our website, please see our Privacy Policy. If you have questions about this Notice, please contact our Privacy Officer using the information at the end of this Notice.

Our Duties

We are required by law to:

  • maintain the privacy and security of your PHI;
  • give you this Notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to your PHI;
  • notify you if a breach occurs that compromises the privacy or security of your unsecured PHI; and
  • follow the terms of the Notice that is currently in effect.

We will not use or share your information other than as described in this Notice unless you give us permission in writing. If you give us permission, you may change your mind at any time by letting us know in writing.

How We May Use and Disclose Your Health Information

The following categories describe the ways we may use and disclose your PHI. Not every use or disclosure in a category is listed, but all of the ways we are permitted to use and disclose PHI fall within one of these categories. Where the law requires, we limit the PHI we use or disclose to the minimum necessary for the purpose.

Treatment

We may use and share your PHI to provide, coordinate, or manage your health care and related services. For example, we may share information with a laboratory that performs tests we order, with a pharmacy that fills a prescription, or with a physician or other provider to whom you are referred.

Payment

We may use and share your PHI to bill and get payment for the services we provide to you. For example, we may use your information to prepare a statement for you, or, if applicable, give information to your health plan or another payer to confirm coverage, obtain approval before a service, or receive payment.

Health care operations

We may use and share your PHI to run our practice, improve your care, and contact you when necessary. For example, we may use PHI for quality assessment and improvement, staff training, licensing and credentialing, audits, legal services, and business planning and management.

Business associates

We may share your PHI with outside companies ("business associates") that perform services for us, such as billing, electronic health records, scheduling, communications, and information technology services. Business associates must agree in writing to protect your PHI and to use it only as permitted by law and by our agreement with them.

Appointment reminders and communications about your care

We may use and disclose your PHI to contact you with appointment reminders, verifications, and confirmations, and about your care, by phone, text message, email, or mail. These communications may come from our staff or from automated or AI-assisted systems (including automated or artificial-voice calls and automated text messages), consistent with the contact preferences you give us. We try to limit the health information included in these messages. You can ask us to contact you by a different method or at a different place (see "Request confidential communications" below). If you ask us to communicate with you by unencrypted email or text message, we will tell you about the risks, and we may honor your request.

Treatment alternatives and health-related services

We may use your PHI to tell you about treatment options or health-related services that we offer and that may be of interest to you, as permitted by law. We will obtain your written authorization before sending any communication that is considered marketing under HIPAA, as described below.

Individuals involved in your care or payment for your care

Unless you object, we may share information with a family member, friend, or other person you identify who is involved in your care or helps pay for it, limited to what is relevant to that person's involvement. If you are not present or are unable to agree or object (for example, in an emergency), we may use our professional judgment to decide whether sharing is in your best interest. We may also share information with an organization assisting in disaster relief efforts so that your family can be notified about your condition and location.

Fundraising

If we contact you for fundraising purposes, you have the right to opt out of receiving such communications.

Uses and Disclosures That Require Your Written Authorization

We will not do any of the following without your written authorization:

  • Marketing: use or disclose your PHI for marketing purposes, except for face-to-face communications with you or promotional gifts of nominal value, as permitted by law;
  • Sale of PHI: sell your PHI; or
  • Psychotherapy notes: use or disclose psychotherapy notes, except in limited circumstances permitted by law.

Other uses and disclosures not described in this Notice will be made only with your written authorization. You may revoke an authorization at any time by giving us written notice, except to the extent we have already acted in reliance on it.

Uses and Disclosures Permitted Without Your Authorization

The law allows or requires us to share your PHI in the following situations, usually for purposes that contribute to the public good. We must meet the conditions of the law before we share your information for these purposes.

  • As required by law: when federal, state, or local law requires it, including to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services when it is reviewing our compliance with federal privacy law.
  • Public health activities: for example, to prevent or control disease, injury, or disability; to report births and deaths; to report reactions to medications or problems with medical products to the Food and Drug Administration; to help with product recalls; and to report suspected child abuse or neglect.
  • Victims of abuse, neglect, or domestic violence: to a government authority authorized to receive such reports, when required or permitted by law.
  • Health oversight activities: to agencies authorized by law to conduct audits, investigations, inspections, and licensure activities.
  • Judicial and administrative proceedings: in response to a court or administrative order, or in response to a subpoena or other lawful process, subject to the requirements of law.
  • Law enforcement: for certain law enforcement purposes, such as complying with a court order, warrant, or similar process; identifying or locating a suspect, fugitive, material witness, or missing person; or reporting a crime that occurs on our premises.
  • Coroners, medical examiners, and funeral directors: as needed for them to carry out their duties.
  • Organ and tissue donation: to organizations that handle organ, eye, or tissue procurement or transplantation.
  • Research: for research that has been approved through a process that protects your privacy, such as review by an institutional review board or privacy board, or as otherwise permitted by law.
  • To avert a serious threat to health or safety: to someone able to help prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat to your health or safety or to that of another person or the public.
  • Workers' compensation: as authorized by, and to comply with, workers' compensation laws and similar programs.
  • Specialized government functions: for military and veterans activities, national security and intelligence activities, and protective services for the President and others, and, if you are an inmate or otherwise in lawful custody, to a correctional institution or law enforcement official.

Additional Protections Under California Law

California law, including the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (California Civil Code Section 56 and following), may give you greater privacy protection than HIPAA. When California law is stricter than federal law, we follow California law. For example:

  • California law may require your written authorization for some disclosures that HIPAA would otherwise allow without it;
  • certain types of information receive special protection, such as HIV test results, mental health information, genetic test results, and information about sensitive health care services (such as reproductive and sexual health care, gender-affirming care, and care related to intimate partner violence); and
  • California law gives you specific rights to inspect and receive copies of your records and to add a written addendum to your records, as described below.

We will not use or disclose medical information about you in a manner prohibited by California law.

Your Rights Regarding Your Health Information

You have the following rights. To exercise any of them, please contact our Privacy Officer using the information at the end of this Notice. We may ask you to make certain requests in writing.

Get a copy of your medical record

You can ask to see or get a copy of your medical record and other health information we have about you, in paper or electronic form. If we maintain your information electronically, you can ask for an electronic copy in the form and format you request if it is readily producible, and you can ask us to send a copy to another person or organization you choose. Under California law, you may generally inspect your records within 5 working days, and receive copies within 15 days, after we receive your written request. In all cases, we will respond within the time required by law. We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee as permitted by law. In limited circumstances, we may deny your request; if we do, we will explain why in writing and tell you whether you can have the denial reviewed.

Ask us to amend your medical record

If you believe health information we have about you is incorrect or incomplete, you can ask us to amend it. We may say "no" to your request, but we will tell you why in writing within 60 days (or within up to 30 additional days if we notify you of a delay). If we deny your request, you may submit a statement of disagreement. California law also allows you to add a written addendum of up to 250 words for any item or statement in your record that you believe is incomplete or incorrect, and we will attach it to your record.

Get a list of those with whom we have shared your information

You can ask for a list (an "accounting") of the times we have shared your health information in the six years before the date of your request, who we shared it with, and why. The list will include all disclosures except those for treatment, payment, and health care operations, and certain other disclosures (such as any you asked us to make). We will provide one accounting a year free of charge, but we may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee if you ask for another one within 12 months.

Ask us to limit what we use or share

You can ask us not to use or share certain health information for treatment, payment, or our operations. We are not required to agree to your request, and we may say "no" if it would affect your care. If you pay for a service or health care item out-of-pocket in full, you can ask us not to share information about that service or item with your health plan for payment or health care operations purposes. We will say "yes" unless a law requires us to share that information.

Request confidential communications

You can ask us to contact you in a specific way (for example, by home or mobile phone, or by email) or to send mail to a different address. We will say "yes" to all reasonable requests, and we will not ask you why.

Get a paper copy of this Notice

You can ask for a paper copy of this Notice at any time, even if you have agreed to receive it electronically. We will give you a paper copy promptly. This Notice is also posted on our website.

Choose someone to act for you

If you have given someone medical power of attorney, or if someone is your legal guardian or other personal representative, that person can exercise your rights and make choices about your health information. We will confirm that the person has this authority and can act for you before we take any action.

Be notified of a breach

You have the right to be notified if a breach of your unsecured PHI occurs.

Complaints

If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may file a complaint with us by contacting our Privacy Officer using the information below. You may also file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights, online at www.hhs.gov/ocr/complaints.

We will not retaliate against you for filing a complaint.

Changes to This Notice

We reserve the right to change the terms of this Notice, and the changes will apply to all PHI we have about you, including information we created or received before the change. If we make a material change, the updated Notice will be available on request, in our office, and on our website, and it will show its effective date. We will ask you to acknowledge in writing that you have received this Notice.
