HIPAA Medical Privacy Act: issues & facts regarding our drive school & Doing business with our clients.

You Must respond back via Text or Email 'I Agree' to HIPAA policy blog' after reading the following:

Sorry to sound harsh and this is NOT political (as one parent tried to accuse).....but we do take seriously the HIPAA Medical Privacy Act:

1) Per Federal HIPAA laws, It is up to our instructors if they wish to be vaccinated and/or wear masks so please do not demand our instructors wear masks or prove their vaccination status! This would be a violation of their Federal HIPAA Privacy regarding their medical records and thus none of our business and none of anybody else's business.

Therefore, please do not violate our instructors HIPAA privacy. This is NON-NEGOTIABLE as we are not going to be in violation of Federal HIPAA laws and don't want our clients to be in violation as well.

2) Likewise, per Federal HIPAA privacy laws, we do not require our students to be vaccinated or wear masks as that is totally up to each student (and parents). We respect True Facts and True Science at our driving school, not Media falsehoods and Faux Science and we also respect our State and US Constitution and each person's rights under those Constitutions. This too is NON-NEGOTIABLE....

so if you purchase our services you agree (by replying back 'I Agree to HIPAA policy' to this particular blog for each persons privacy to make up their own minds on these issues!

If you disagree, we would hate to lose your business, but would ask that you explore other driving schools!! To date, we've only had two parents out of Thousands who chose to take their business elsewhere and that's ok with us as we want to address this issue up front before we get to your drives and then it becomes an issue!

*Even before this whole Covid-19 virus became an issue, we sanitized our cars interiors with Lysol disinfectant after each drive! (Especially if the student appeared to have a cold or sniffles)

*We ALWAYS have hand sanitizer in the cars available to both student and staff!

*If the student chooses to wear a mask, we respectfully ask that it be freshly laundered or if disposable to be brand new for each of our drives. Please advise your student accordingly so this is not an issue! Old dirty masks DO harbor dangerous bacteria.
