A Reminder of HealthyLifeHRA USER RESPONSIBILITIES (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)

I understand that HealthyLifeHRA is intended as a secure online source of confidential medical information. If I share my HealthyLifeHRA ID and password with another person, that person may be able to view my or the patient’s health information, and health information about someone who has authorized me as a HealthyLifeHRA proxy.

I understand that my activities within HealthyLifeHRA may be tracked electronically and that entries I make may become part of the medical record.

I understand that access to HealthyLifeHRA is provided by HealthyLifeHRA as a convenience to its patients and that HealthyLifeHRA has the right to end access to HealthyLifeHRA at any time, for any reason, including any misuse of HealthyLifeHRA by me (or my proxy).

I understand that access to HealthyLifeHRA does not grant me or my proxy any right, license or interest in HealthyLifeHRA's proprietary or confidential information or property and that I am not permitted to use, reproduce or distribute (e.g. cut and paste) any intellectual property of HealthyLifeHRA or any third party contained on this website or in my HealthyLifeHRA medical record. For example, I understand that I am not permitted to copy any of the pages/screens of HealthyLifeHRA and paste them elsewhere as this would be an inappropriate use of HealthyLifeHRA’s proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of other third parties.

I understand that my use of HealthyLifeHRA is voluntary and I am not required to use HealthyLifeHRA or to authorize a HealthyLifeHRA proxy.

If I designate a proxy, I understand that it is my responsibility to contact HealthyLifeHRA and tell them that I am revoking the proxy status when I no longer want the person I designated to have access to my HealthyLifeHRA information.

I must provide HealthyLifeHRA with a valid email address and update HealthyLifeHRA if I change my email account. HealthyLifeHRA may send me emails to my personal email address to notify me of changes. Messages sent via my personal email will not contain personal health information; however, I understand that any person with access to my personal email account will be able to see these messages.

HealthyLifeHRA takes no responsibility for erroneous medical information provided through HealthyLifeHRA.

I understand that I may not transmit any information or message that contains unlawful, threatening, fraudulent, libelous, defamatory, obscene or abusive information or language. HealthyLifeHRA may not be used for any illegal or unethical activities. Hacking, attempted access or other forms of inappropriate access or attempted access to unauthorized areas or information on this site will lead to termination of use and potential legal prosecution.

CONFIDENTIALITY

Both Federal and Ohio laws govern the confidentiality of medical information. HealthyLifeHRA is dedicated to keeping your medical information confidential.

Minor Ineligibility

An individual must be age 18 or older to request a personal account

Proxy Access

Individuals age 18 or older may request proxy access to another individual's HealthyLifeHRA account by requesting that the patient complete the Proxy Access Consent Form and submitting it to HealthyLifeHRA.

A HealthyLifeHRA account will be activated for both the proxy and the account holder. If the proxy's legal relationship with the account holder changes, the account holder must inform us immediately by calling or sending written notice. HealthyLifeHRA reserves the right to revoke proxy access at any time for any reason.

Deactivation

In addition to the deactivation terms set forth above, HealthyLifeHRA access and/or Proxy access may be deactivated, in the sole discretion of HealthyLifeHRA or at the request of the account holder. The following is a list of reasons which will result in deactivation. This list is not an all-inclusive list and each circumstance will be evaluated individually.

You understand that not all of your HealthyLifeHRA information may appear on your HealthyLifeHRA report. HealthyLifeHRA reserves the right in the future to charge a fee for the use of HealthyLifeHRA.
