      This notice describes how medical information about you may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to this information. Please review it carefully.
      This Notice is effective the date your policy is issued.

      We (WellAway Limited – A health insurance manager domiciled in Bermuda) understand the importance of, and are committed to, maintaining the privacy of your protected health information (PHI). PHI is health and nonpublic personal financial information that can reasonably be used to identify you and that we maintain in the normal course of either administering your employer’s self-insured group health plan or providing you with insured health care coverage and other services. PHI also includes your personally identifiable information that we may collect from you in connection with the application and enrollment process for health insurance coverage.

      We are required by international laws to maintain the privacy of your PHI. We are also required to provide you with this notice, which describes our privacy practices, our legal duties, and your rights concern-ing your PHI. We are required to follow the privacy practices that are described in this notice while it is in effect.

      We reserve the right to change our privacy practices and the terms of this notice at any time and to make the terms of our revised notice effective for all of your PHI that we either currently maintain or that we may maintain in the future. If we make a significant change in our privacy practices, we will post a revised notice on our web site by the effective date, and provide the revised notice, or information about the change and how to get the revised notice, to covered individuals in our next annual mailing.

      Our employees are trained on our privacy and data protection policies and procedures;

      We use administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to help maintain the privacy and security of your PHI;

      We have policies and procedures in place to restrict our employees’ use of your PHI to those employees who are authorized to access this information for treatment or payment purposes or to perform certain healthcare operations; and

      Our corporate Business Ethics, Integrity, and Compliance division monitors how we follow our privacy policies and procedures.

      How we must disclose your Personal Health Information
      To You: We will disclose your PHI to you or someone who has the legal right to act on your behalf (your personal representative) in order to administer your ‘Individual Rights’ under this notice.

      As Required by Law: We will disclose your PHI when required by applicable law to do so.

      How we may use and disclose your Personal Health Information without your written authorization
      We may use and disclose your PHI without your written authorization in a number of different ways in connection with your treatment, the payment for your healthcare, and our healthcare operations. When using or disclosing your PHI, or requesting your PHI from another entity, we will make reasonable efforts to limit such use, disclosure or request, to the extent practicable, to the minimum necessary to accomplish the intended purpose of such use, disclosure or request. The following are only a few examples of the types of uses and disclosures of your PHI that we may make without your written authorization.

      For Treatment: We may use and disclose your PHI as necessary to aid in your treatment or the coordination of your care. For example, we may disclose your PHI to doctors, dentists, hospitals, or other health care providers in order for them to provide treatment to you. For Payment: We may use and disclose your PHI to administer your health benefits policy or contract. For example, we may use and disclose your PHI to pay claims for services provided to you by doctors, dentists or hospitals. We may disclose your PHI to a health care provider or another health plan, so that the provider or plan may obtain payment of a claim or engage in other payment activities.

      To Family, Friends, and Others for Treatment or Payment: Our disclosure of your PHI for the treatment and payment purposes described above may include disclosures to others who are involved in your care or the administration of your health benefits policy. For example, we may disclose your PHI to your family members, friends or caregivers if you direct us to do so or if we exercise professional judgment and determine that they are involved in either your care or the administration of your health benefits policy. We may send an explanation of benefits to the policyholder, which may include claims paid and other information. We may determine that persons are involved in your care or the administration of your health benefits policy if you either agree or fail to object to a disclosure of your PHI to such persons when given an opportunity. In an emergency or in situations where you are incapacitated or not otherwise present, we may disclose your PHI to your family members, friends, caregivers or others, when the circumstances indicate that such disclosure is authorized by you and is in your best interests. In these situations, we will only disclose your PHI that is relevant to such other person’s involvement in your care or the administration of your health benefits policy.

      For Health Care Operations: We may use and disclose your PHI to support other business activities. For example, we may use or disclose your PHI to conduct quality assessment and improvement activities, to conduct fraud and abuse investigations, to engage in care coordination or case management, or to communicate with you about health related benefits, products, or services or treatment alternatives that may be of interest to you. We may also disclose your PHI to another entity subject to federal privacy laws, as long as the entity has or had a relationship with you and the PHI is disclosed only for certain health care operations of that provider, plan, or other entity. We may use and disclose your PHI as needed to conduct or arrange for legal services, auditing, or other functions. We may also use and disclose your PHI to perform underwriting activities.

      To Associated Entity(ies) for Treatment, Payment or Health Care Operations: Our use of your PHI for treatment, payment, or health care operations described above (or for other uses or disclosures
      described in this notice) may involve our disclosure of your PHI to certain other entities with which we have contracted to perform or provide certain services on our behalf (associated entity(ies)). We may allow our associat-ed entity(ies) to create, receive, maintain, or transmit your PHI on our behalf in order for the associate entities to provide services to us, or for the proper management and administration of the associated entity(ies) or to fulfill the associated entity(ies) legal responsibilities. The associated entity(ies) includes lawyers, accountants, consultants, claims clearinghouses, and other third parties. Our associated entity(ies) may re-disclose your PHI to subcontractors in order for these subcontractors to provide services to the associated entity(ies). These subcontractors will be subject to the same restrictions and conditions that apply to the Associated Entity(ies). Whenever such arrangement with an associated entity(ies) involves the use or disclosure of your PHI, we will have a written contract with our associated entity(ies) that contains terms designed to protect the privacy of your PHI.

      For Public Health and Safety: We may use or disclose your PHI to the extent necessary to avert a serious and imminent threat to the health or safety of you or others. We may also disclose your PHI for public health and government health care oversight activities and to report suspected abuse, neglect, or domestic violence to government authorities.
