Legal Requirements: We may disclose information when required to do so by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or governmental request, or when necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of Medviz, our clients, or the public.
Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections.
7. HIPAA Compliance and Business Associate Agreements
Medviz Systems operates as a HIPAA Business Associate when processing Protected Health Information (PHI) on behalf of healthcare providers. As such:
We enter into a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with every healthcare practice client before accessing or processing any patient PHI.
We implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards required by the HIPAA Security Rule to protect electronic PHI (ePHI).
We limit PHI use and disclosure to the purposes specified in the applicable BAA.
We support the rights of patients to access, amend, and receive an accounting of disclosures of their PHI, as facilitated through their healthcare provider.
In the event of a breach of unsecured PHI, we will notify the affected covered entity (healthcare practice) in accordance with the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule, within 60 days of discovery.
Patients seeking to exercise HIPAA rights (access, amendment, accounting of disclosures) should contact their healthcare provider directly. Medviz will support the provider in fulfilling such requests.
8. Data Security
We implement industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect your information, including:
AES-256 encryption for data at rest and TLS encryption for data in transit
Role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication for staff accessing systems
Routine security audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments
HIPAA Security Rule-compliant workforce training and access management
Audit logs for all access to and modifications of PHI
Secure, redundant cloud infrastructure (SOC 2-compliant providers)
While we implement robust security measures, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We encourage clients and users to use strong passwords and report any suspected security concerns to privacy@medviz.ai immediately.
9. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and our client agreements, or as required by law:
Medical billing records and claims data: Minimum 7 years per federal requirements (longer in some states).
PHI processed under CCM/PCM/RPM: Retained per the terms of the applicable BAA and state medical records laws.
SMS consent records: Retained for a minimum of 4 years to support TCPA compliance.
Website visitor data: Retained in analytics systems for up to 24 months.
Business records: Retained per applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Upon termination of a client relationship, PHI is returned to the practice or securely destroyed in accordance with HIPAA requirements and the terms of the BAA.

11. Third-Party Links and Integrations
Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any information.
Our services integrate with third-party EMR/EHR platforms including Athena, eClinicalWorks, AdvancedMD, CareCloud, DrChrono, and others. Information shared with these platforms is governed by your agreement with those vendors and applicable HIPAA authorizations.
12. AI-Powered Medical Documentation (Samaat AI)
Medviz Systems offers Samaat AI, an AI-powered medical documentation service that records provider-patient encounters, generates automatic transcriptions, and produces structured SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) notes. This service reduces administrative burden on providers while improving documentation accuracy and clinical efficiency.
a. What Samaat AI Collects
When Samaat AI is active during a clinical encounter, the following data is collected and processed:
Audio recordings of provider-patient conversations during clinical encounters (with consent — see below)
Automated transcriptions of recorded conversations
AI-generated SOAP notes and structured clinical documentation derived from transcriptions
Provider identity and session metadata (date, time, encounter type)
Patient identifiers referenced within the encounter (name, date of birth, conditions discussed)
b. Patient and Provider Consent for Recording
Audio recording of provider-patient encounters requires explicit consent under applicable federal and state laws, including state wiretapping and two-party consent statutes. Medviz Systems requires client practices to:
Obtain informed patient consent before any encounter is recorded, via signed consent form, verbal acknowledgment documented in the EHR, or posted notice where permitted by applicable state law.
Inform patients that: (i) the encounter will be recorded; (ii) the recording will be transcribed and used to generate clinical documentation; (iii) the recording and resulting notes form part of their medical record; and (iv) the provider remains responsible for reviewing and approving all AI-generated clinical notes.
Obtain provider acknowledgment that all AI-generated documentation must be reviewed, edited as needed, and formally signed off by the licensed clinician before being finalized in the medical record.
In states requiring all-party or two-party consent for recording (such as California, Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and others), practices must ensure patient consent is obtained before the encounter recording begins. Medviz provides guidance to practices on consent requirements, but the practice as the covered entity is ultimately responsible for obtaining and documenting consent.
c. How Samaat AI Data Is Used
Data collected through Samaat AI is used exclusively for the following purposes:
To generate accurate transcriptions of clinical encounters for medical documentation purposes.
To produce AI-assisted SOAP notes and structured clinical summaries for provider review and approval.
To return finalized documentation to the practice’s EHR or clinical workflow system.
To improve transcription accuracy and AI model performance, using only de-identified or appropriately authorized data. Identifiable patient audio or transcriptions are never used to train AI models without explicit written authorization from the covered entity and, where required, patient authorization.
d. Audio Recording Retention and Deletion
Audio recordings and raw transcriptions are handled with strict data minimization principles:
Audio recordings are retained only for the minimum period necessary to generate and quality-check clinical documentation — typically no longer than 30 days after the SOAP note is finalized and delivered to the practice.
Finalized SOAP notes and clinical documentation become part of the patient’s medical record and are retained by the practice per applicable medical records retention laws (generally 7–10 years depending on state).
Practices may request earlier deletion of audio recordings by contacting privacy@medviz.ai.
Upon termination of the Samaat AI service, all retained audio recordings are securely deleted within 30 days and all documentation is returned to the practice.
e. Human Oversight and Clinical Responsibility
Samaat AI is a documentation assistance tool, not a clinical decision-making system. Medviz maintains the following human oversight commitments:
All AI-generated SOAP notes are presented as drafts for provider review. No note is finalized or entered into the medical record without explicit review and approval by the licensed treating clinician.
Providers are responsible for correcting, amending, or rejecting any AI-generated content that is inaccurate, incomplete, or clinically inappropriate.
Medviz does not make any automated clinical decisions regarding diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, or patient care based on AI-generated content.
f. Additional Safeguards for Audio PHI
Given the sensitive nature of recorded provider-patient conversations, Medviz applies the following additional safeguards specific to Samaat AI:
All audio data is transmitted and stored using end-to-end encryption (TLS 1.2+ in transit, AES-256 at rest).
Access to audio recordings and transcriptions is strictly limited to authorized personnel involved in documentation processing and quality assurance.
Samaat AI processing infrastructure is fully covered under the HIPAA BAA between Medviz and the client practice.
Third-party AI or cloud processing vendors used in the Samaat AI pipeline are required to execute HIPAA-compliant BAAs and are prohibited from using PHI for any purpose beyond delivering the contracted documentation service.
Samaat AI does not share audio recordings, transcriptions, or SOAP notes with any third party for advertising, analytics, or commercial purposes.
13. AI-Powered Billing, Coding, and Revenue Cycle Management
Medviz uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to enhance medical billing accuracy, coding compliance, and revenue cycle performance. This includes automated CPT/ICD code suggestions, claim scrubbing, denial pattern analysis, and billing workflow optimization.
When AI tools process patient encounter data or claims information:
Processing occurs exclusively under the terms of the applicable HIPAA BAA.
AI-generated code suggestions and billing recommendations are reviewed by certified billing and coding professionals before claim submission.
No claims are submitted on a fully automated basis without human review for accuracy and compliance.
AI models are not trained on identifiable patient PHI without appropriate authorization from the covered entity.
Denial analysis and revenue cycle insights are derived from aggregated, de-identified data patterns where possible.
14. Children’s Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through our website. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it promptly. Note that Medviz may process pediatric patient data (including minors under 18) as part of medical billing and care management services on behalf of healthcare practices, which is governed by applicable HIPAA and state minor health privacy laws.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our services, legal requirements, or data practices. When we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date and, where appropriate, notify affected clients directly. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
