When patients receive a copy of an organization's privacy notice, they are asked to sign an acknowledgment because it shows they received it.
When and how can I receive a Notice of Privacy Practices?
Normally, you'll be informed at your first appointment. You should be notified of an emergency as soon as possible after it occurs. A copy of the notification must also be given to anyone who requests one, and it must be displayed in a visible place where patients can view it. An organization must publish the notification on its website if it has one.
You must receive a notice from a health plan during enrolling. It must also remind you that you can request the notification at any time at least once every three years. The "named insured" may receive the notice from a health plan (subscriber for coverage). Additionally, spouses and dependents do not need to get separate notices.
