According to the Protect Access to Confidential Healthcare (PATCH) Act, insurance companies in Massachusetts are not allowed to describe in an identifiable way sensitive services. These services include testing for sexually transmitted infections, 生育控制, and pregnancy testing. 也, if you are on the same plan as a parent/legal guardian, spouse or partner, you have the right to choose how and where your health insurance company sends the written explanation of services after your healthcare visit. If you are worried about confidentiality and have a non-MassHealth plan, call the customer service number on your health insurance card and request that the form be sent to a different address or that you want to receive the form online. You can request that the form not be sent at all if you do not owe any out-of-pocket costs. MassHealth does not send explanations of benefits. If you have a non-MassHealth insurance plan and cannot have your explanations of benefits sent elsewhere or have other insurance issues or confidentiality concerns let your provider know. They can help set you up with our sliding fee scale supported by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
