Hipaa Confidentiality And Non-Disclosure Agreement (Page 2 of 3) in pdf

Healthcare Facility’s permission. Nor will the Employee leave confidential information

unattended (e.g., so that it remains visible on computer screens after the Employee’s

use). The Employee agrees that his or her log-on code or password is equivalent to a

legally-binding signature and will not be disclosed to or used by anyone other than

the Employee. Nor will the Employee use or even attempt to learn another person’s

log-on code or password.

The Employee immediately will notify this Healthcare

Facility’s HIPAA Privacy Officer upon suspecting that his or her log-on code or

password no longer is confidential. The Employee agrees that all computer systems

are the exclusive property of Practice and will not be used by the Employee for any

purpose unrelated to his or her employment. The Employee acknowledges that he or

she has no right of privacy when using this Healthcare Facility’s computer systems

and that his or her computer use periodically will be monitored by this Healthcare

Facility to ensure compliance with this Agreement and applicable law.

5. Immediately upon request by this Healthcare Facility, the Employee will return all

confidential information to this Healthcare Facility and will not retain any copies of

any confidential information, except as otherwise expressly permitted in writing

signed by this Healthcare Facility.

All confidential information, including copies

thereof, will remain and be the exclusive property of this Healthcare Facility, unless

otherwise required by applicable law. The Employee specifically agrees that he or

she will not, and will not allow anyone working on their behalf or affiliated with the

Employee in any way, use any or all of the confidential information for any purpose

other than as expressly allowed by this Agreement. The Employee understands that

violating the terms of this Agreement may, in this Healthcare Facility’s sole discretion,

result in disciplinary action including termination of employment and/or legal action

to prevent or recover damages for breach. Breach reporting is imperative.

6. The parties agree that any breach of any of the covenants or agreements set forth

herein by the Employee will result in irreparable injury to this Healthcare Facility for

which money damages are inadequate; therefore, in the event of a breach or an

anticipatory breach, Practice will be entitled (in addition to any other rights and

remedies which it may have at law or in equity, including money damages) to have

an injunction without bond issued enjoining and restraining the Employee and/or any

other person involved from breaching this Agreement.

7. This Agreement shall be binding upon and endure to the benefit of all parties hereto

and to each of their successors, assigns, officers, agents, employees, shareholders

and directors. This Agreement commences on the date set forth above and the

terms of this Agreement shall survive any termination, cancellation, expiration or other

conclusion of this Agreement unless the parties otherwise expressly agree in writing.

8. The parties agree that the interpretation, legal effect and enforcement of this

Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State and by execution hereof,

each party agrees to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State. The parties agree that

any suit arising out of or relation to this Agreement shall be brought in the county

where this Healthcare Facility’s principal place of business is located.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto have

executed this Agreement on the date first above written, when signing below and after

training on HIPAA Law with full understanding this agreement shall stand.
