Your Choices

Participation with HealthInfoNet is voluntary. Patients do not have to participate in HealthInfoNet. A patient’s choice to participate or not will not effect their ability to access medical care. As with any electronic system, there is risk of unauthorized access or misuse of information. If a patient feels that the risks outweigh the benefits, they may choose not to participate or “opt-out”. When a patient opts out, HealthInfoNet removes their health information and keeps only demographic information needed to make sure no health information is added. Patients can opt-out of the system at any time and HealthInfoNet makes it easy. Patients should understand this means their medical information will not be available through HealthInfoNet to help their participating caregivers coordinate their care.

Click here to opt-out securely online. Patients can also print out and mail an opt-out form to HealthInfoNet available for download here, or call HealthInfoNet at 1-866-592-4352 during business hours.

If patients who have opted out later decide to have their information included again, they will need to call HealthInfoNet, or go online and fill out the opt-in form. Their record will only include information from medical visits that happen after they opt-back in.
