Notice of Privacy Practices
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.
Effective date: September 12, 2026
This notice applies to BioWave Regeneration, an operating division of Made Ya Skinny, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, at both of our locations:
- 506 Honea Egypt Rd, Suite 106, Magnolia, TX 77354
- 13100 Wortham Center Dr, 3rd Floor, Houston, TX 77065
Our promise about your health information
We create and keep a record of the care we provide you. We are required by law to keep your health information private, to give you this notice explaining our legal duties and privacy practices, and to follow the terms of the notice currently in effect.
“Health information” here means information that identifies you and relates to your health, your care, or payment for your care. The law calls it protected health information, or PHI.
How we may use and share your health information without asking you first
For treatment. We use your health information to care for you and share it with others who are also caring for you — for example, sending your nerve assessment results to your referring physician, or discussing your progress with another provider you are seeing.
For payment. We use your health information to bill and collect payment for your care, including verifying coverage where a plan is involved and providing documentation a plan requires.
For our health care operations. We use your health information to run the practice — reviewing quality of care, training staff, and business planning.
Appointment reminders and follow-up. We may contact you by phone, text message or email to remind you of an appointment, to follow up after a visit, or to tell you about a treatment option or health-related service that may interest you. Tell us at any time if you would rather we did not, or would rather we used a different method, and we will stop.
When the law requires or allows it. We may use or share your health information: as required by law; for public health activities; to report suspected abuse, neglect or domestic violence; for health oversight activities; in response to a court order, subpoena or other lawful process; for law enforcement purposes; to coroners, medical examiners and funeral directors; for organ donation; for approved research; to avert a serious and imminent threat to health or safety; for specialized government functions; and for workers’ compensation claims.
When we will ask your permission first
We will ask for your written authorization before we:
- use or share psychotherapy notes, if any exist
- use or share your health information for most marketing purposes
- sell your health information
- share your health information in any other way this notice does not describe
You may cancel a written authorization at any time, in writing. Cancelling it stops future uses and disclosures, but it cannot undo one we already made while the authorization was in effect.
Your rights
See and get a copy of your record. You may ask to inspect or receive a copy of your health information, including an electronic copy if we keep it electronically. Under Texas law, if we maintain your record electronically and you request it electronically, we will provide it within 15 business days of a written request — sooner than the 30 days federal law allows. We may charge a reasonable, cost-based fee.
Ask us to correct your record. If you believe something in your record is wrong or incomplete, you may ask us in writing to amend it. We may deny the request, and if we do we will tell you why in writing and you may file a statement of disagreement that becomes part of your record.
Get a list of disclosures. You may ask for a list of the times we shared your health information for reasons other than treatment, payment or health care operations, going back up to six years.
Ask us to limit what we use or share. You may ask us to restrict how we use or share your information. We do not have to agree, with one exception we must honor: if you pay for a service in full, out of your own pocket, you may tell us not to share information about that service with your health plan, and we will not.
Ask us to contact you a certain way. You may ask us to reach you at a particular phone number or address, or only by a particular method. We will accommodate reasonable requests and will not ask you why.
Get a paper copy of this notice. You may ask for one at any time, even if you agreed to receive it electronically.
Be told if your information is breached. We will notify you if a breach compromises the privacy or security of your health information.
Choose someone to act for you. If you have given someone medical power of attorney, or if someone is your legal guardian, that person can exercise these rights for you.
To exercise any of these rights, contact our Privacy Officer below. We will not retaliate against you for exercising them.
Electronic disclosure
Texas law requires us to tell you that your health information is subject to electronic disclosure. We will not electronically disclose your protected health information to anyone without a separate authorization from you, except where the law permits or requires disclosure without one — for example, for your treatment, for payment, or for our health care operations.
Our duties
We are required by law to protect the privacy of your health information, to give you this notice, and to follow it. We reserve the right to change this notice and to make the new notice apply to health information we already hold as well as information we create later. If we change it, we will post the new notice in our offices and on this website.
Questions and complaints
If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, tell us. You may also complain to the federal government. Filing a complaint will never affect your care and we will not retaliate against you for it.
