NARR 3.0 Standard 6: Protect resident information It is best practice that residences be guided by HIPPA laws.20 Many residences are legally required to protect resident information under these laws. However, beyond these requirements, residents who feel safe are better able to participate fully in the community, supporting others and being supported. Thus, all recovery residences, regardless of legal requirements, will have protocols to protect resident information

Privacy & Protection of Resident Information

GoForth Recovery does not meet the definition of a covered entity or business associate as defined by 45 CFR 160.103 and is not subject to or required to comply with the HIPAA Rules and Guidelines. Our current  GoForth Recovery resident private confidential information and data collection practices would be considered Protected Health Information (PHI) under HIPPA, therefore GoForth Recovery follows the NARR 3.0 Standard 6  to “Protect resident information It is best practice that residences be guided by HIPPA laws.”

GoForth Recovery best practices include strict policies and protocols to protect confidential resident information and PHI including the multi-layered information storage security and secure resident CRM with identity verification and restricted access. Applicant PHI submitted online through https://goforthrecovery.com is securely encrypted.  All GoForth Recovery resident privacy information, PHI, personal and confidential information, regardless of HIPPA or minimum legal requirements will be protected.

Identifiers that make health information PHI are:

  • Names
  • Dates, except year
  • Telephone numbers
  • Geographic data
  • FAX numbers
  • Social Security numbers
  • Email addresses
  • Medical record numbers
  • Account numbers
  • Health plan beneficiary numbers
  • Certificate/license numbers
  • Vehicle identifiers and serial numbers including license plates
  • Web URLs
  • Device identifiers and serial numbers
  • Internet protocol addresses
  • Full face photos and comparable images
  • Biometric identifiers (i.e. retinal scan, fingerprints)
  • Any unique identifying number or code

Limited Use and De-Identified PHI

Under HIPAA GoForth Recovery’s Protected Health Information (PHI) ceases to be PHI if it is stripped of all identifiers that can tie the information to an individual. The removal of identifiers is referred to as de-identified PHI and HIPPA rules do not apply to de-identified PHI.
