19. AUTHORIZATION FOR RELEASE & USE OF INFORMATION
To facilitate the coordination of your care with respect to, and the advancement of, the Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation Therapy System, Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (“Inspire”), has developed a patient management system (the “Inspire SleepSync System” or “System”). Upon your authorization, Inspire allows your health care providers to access your personal health-related information contained in the System so that they may use it in treating you (the “Information”).
The purpose of this Authorization is to allow your Health Care Provider to load your Information onto the System and for that Information to be shared with other health care providers to manage your care. In addition, by signing this Authorization you are agreeing that Inspire may use your Information to: (i) provide your health care providers with Inspire therapy utilization and performance information and with technical support with respect to its therapies and the System, (ii) aid in the development of Inspire products, in studies and publications, (iii) communicate with you through phone calls, emails, SMS (Short Message Service), or messaging apps, with information that might be of interest to you, including information about your doctor appointments, care coordination, clinical trials, and about products and services of ours, and (iv) for other Inspire business operations. Inspire will not use the Information for marketing to you.
With respect to the Information placed on the System, Inspire may not be a health care provider under applicable state law and is not a business of a health care provider (as that term is defined by HIPPA). Therefore, once loaded into the Inspire SleepSync System, the Information may not be protected by state or federal privacy laws. However, Inspire agrees that it will disclose the Information only to: (i) health care providers using the Inspire SleepSync System, or as required by law, (ii) third-parties that are performing service's on behalf of Inspire and have agreed to restrict their use of the Information to the uses allowed to Inspire in this Authorization, or (iii) in a form where your identity is not revealed (i.e., “deidentified” within the meaning of HIPAA).
Inspire is under no obligation to you or your health care providers to maintain the System for any period and may discontinue its operation at any time. Inspire is under no obligation to ensure the accuracy of the data or information maintained in the System.
With your approval below, you certify that you:
