Re: Disclosures of Protected Health Information
Dear ,
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota and Blue Plus has requested information about one or more of our members receiving patient care at your facility or clinic. As the patient’s Health Plan Care Coordinator, my role is to provide patient education, facilitate implementation of physician orders after facility discharge and support patient health goals. This letter is to confirm that you are able to supply health information to Blue Plus or its delegated Care Coordinator without additional consents or releases from the member.
Blue Plus, its delegated Care Coordinators, and health providers are covered entities under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), and are governed by the rules established under HIPAA, 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 & 164 (“the Privacy Rule”). The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) Medical Assistance Application for beneficiaries over the age of 65 (DHS Form 3876) also authorizes sharing of medical information between health providers and health plan contractors to facilitate coordination of health care services.
Blue Plus (and delegated Care Coordinator) and health providers can collect, use, and disclose a member’s protected health information as permitted under the Privacy Rule for treatment, payment or health care operations without the member’s written authorization. This includes but is not limited to activities relating to care coordination, case management, utilization review, verifying eligibility, and examining fraud and abuse.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
................
