Privacy Policy
Sol Pediatrics PLLC
Effective: July 21, 2026
Our Legal Duties
This notice describes how medical and mental health information about you may be used and disclosed, and how you can access this information. Please review it carefully.
Commitment to Your Family's Privacy
Sol Pediatrics is committed to protecting the privacy of your health information. We are required by law to maintain the privacy of protected health information (“PHI”), to provide you with this notice of our legal duties and privacy practices, and to follow the terms of the notice currently in effect.
How We Use and Share Information
We use and disclose PHI for the following purposes:
Treatment. We use health information to provide, coordinate, or manage care — for example, sharing records with another provider your child sees, or discussing medication response with a pharmacy.
Payment. We use and disclose information as needed to bill and collect payment for services, including with insurance companies. If it becomes necessary to use collection processes due to lack of payment for services, I will only disclose the minimum amount of PHI necessary for purposes of collection.
Health Care Operations. We use information for activities like quality review, staff training, and practice administration.
We may also share limited information: with family members or others involved in your child's care (subject to the adolescent confidentiality protections below); when required by law (such as mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse or neglect); to avert a serious threat to health or safety; and for public health and safety activities.
Anything not described above requires your (or, where applicable, your adolescent's) written authorization, which can be revoked at any time in writing
Your Rights Reguarding Health Information
You (or your adolescent, depending on age and Washington law — see below) have the right to:
• Inspect and copy your child's medical record, with limited exceptions.
• Request amendments to the record if you believe information is incorrect or incomplete.
• Request an accounting of disclosures — a list of certain instances where we shared information outside of routine treatment, payment, and operations.
• Request restrictions on how we use or share information, though we are not required to agree to all requests.
• Request confidential communications — for example, asking us to contact you at a specific phone number or email, or by mail rather than a portal message.
• Receive a paper copy of this notice at any time, even if you agreed to receive it electronically.
• File a complaint if you believe your privacy rights have been violated (see “How to File a Complaint” below), without fear that doing so will affect your child's care.
Our Legal Duties
We are required by law to maintain the privacy of PHI, provide this notice, and abide by the terms currently in effect. We reserve the right to change our privacy practices and the terms of this notice, and to apply the revised terms to all PHI we maintain. If we make a material change, we will update this notice and post the revised version on our website and in our office with a new effective date.
How to File a Complaint
If you feel your privacy rights have been violated, or you disagree with how I've handled access to your PHI or Progress Notes, you have the right to file a complaint. You can do this in two ways:
With the state licensing board: Washington State Board of Nursing, P.O. Box 47857, Olympia, WA 98504-7857, or by phone at 360-236-2620.
With the federal government: Office for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 200 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20201, or by phone at 1-800-368-1019.
Filing a complaint will never affect the care you receive from me or lead to any retaliation on my part.
