Privacy & Security

Effective date: Sept. 2026
Last updated: Sept. 2026

RitzeeCare understands that healthcare practices must carefully protect patient, billing, and business information. We approach privacy and security as ongoing operational responsibilities that include appropriate agreements, limited access, responsible information handling, workforce awareness, and documented procedures.

This page explains how RitzeeCare handles information submitted through this website and describes our general approach to information received while providing A/R recovery and denial management services.

Important Notice About the Website

The RitzeeCare website and public contact form are intended only for general business inquiries.

Do not submit patient names, dates of birth, addresses, claim numbers, insurance identification numbers, medical records, diagnosis information, treatment information, billing documents, or other protected health information through this website.

Prospective and approved clients receive separate instructions when sensitive information must be exchanged through an authorized method.

If protected health information is accidentally submitted through the website, contact RitzeeCare promptly at info@ritzeecare.com. Do not repeat the sensitive information in your notification.

RitzeeCare’s Role

RitzeeCare provides insurance A/R recovery and denial management services to healthcare practices.

When RitzeeCare creates, receives, maintains, or transmits protected health information on behalf of a HIPAA-covered client, RitzeeCare may act as the client’s business associate. The parties define permitted uses, disclosures, safeguards, reporting responsibilities, and other applicable requirements in a written Business Associate Agreement and related service agreements before access begins.

RitzeeCare uses client information only for the purposes authorized by the applicable agreement, to perform contracted services, or as otherwise permitted or required by law.

Information Collected Through This Website

RitzeeCare may collect information that visitors voluntarily provide through the contact form, email, telephone, or consultation request. This information may include:

  • Name and job title

  • Practice or organization name

  • Business email address

  • Telephone number

  • Practice website

  • City and state

  • Medical specialty

  • Approximate number of providers

  • General service interests

  • Approximate insurance A/R range

  • Preferred contact method

  • General information included in a message

Please provide only general business information through the website.

Information Collected Automatically

Like many websites, this site and its service providers may automatically receive limited technical information when a visitor uses the site. Depending on the features enabled, this information may include:

  • Internet Protocol address

  • Browser and device type

  • Operating system

  • Referring page or website

  • Pages visited

  • Date and time of a visit

  • General interaction and performance data

  • Cookie or similar technology information

RitzeeCare may use this information to operate the website, understand general usage, maintain security, diagnose technical problems, and improve content.

The site may use services provided by Squarespace and other providers identified in this notice. If analytics, scheduling tools, embedded videos, social-media features, or other integrations are enabled, those providers may collect information according to their own privacy policies.

How Website Information Is Used

RitzeeCare may use information collected through the website to:

  • Respond to inquiries

  • Schedule or prepare for consultations

  • Determine whether services may be a suitable fit

  • Communicate about requested services

  • Maintain business records

  • Operate and improve the website

  • Protect the website against spam, misuse, fraud, or security threats

  • Comply with applicable legal and contractual requirements

  • Establish or defend legal rights

Submitting the contact form does not create a client relationship. A client relationship begins only after the required agreements have been reviewed and signed by the appropriate parties.

RitzeeCare will not use a consultation request to send unrelated marketing messages unless the person separately agrees to receive them.

Cookies and Third-Party Features

This website may use essential cookies required for security, navigation, form submission, and basic site operation.

If RitzeeCare enables nonessential analytics, advertising, embedded media, or similar tools, those services may use cookies or related technologies. Visitors may be able to limit cookies through their browser settings or through any cookie controls displayed on the website. Restricting certain cookies may affect how some site features function.

Embedded content, such as a YouTube or Vimeo video, may allow the content provider to receive information about a visitor’s interaction with that content. Visitors should review the privacy practices of any third-party provider they choose to use.

RitzeeCare does not intentionally place patient or claim information into website analytics, advertising, or tracking tools.

How Website Information May Be Shared

RitzeeCare may disclose website information:

  • To service providers that help operate the website, email, scheduling, communications, security, or business systems

  • To professional advisers when reasonably necessary

  • To comply with a lawful request, court order, or legal obligation

  • To investigate suspected fraud, misuse, or security incidents

  • To protect the rights, safety, or property of RitzeeCare or others

  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or transfer of business assets, subject to applicable requirements

  • With the individual’s direction or consent

RitzeeCare does not sell protected health information.

RitzeeCare does not disclose client information for purposes outside the applicable agreements except when authorized or required by law.

Client and Protected Health Information

Information used during an A/R recovery or denial management engagement is handled according to the service agreement, applicable Business Associate Agreement, RitzeeCare procedures, and applicable law.

Depending on the engagement, this information may include:

  • A/R and denial reports

  • Claim and remittance information

  • Eligibility and coverage information

  • Payer correspondence

  • Billing-system records

  • Supporting documentation

  • Authorized practice contacts

  • Information required to research or follow up on eligible accounts

RitzeeCare seeks to limit access and use to information reasonably necessary for authorized work. Client information is not requested through the public website form.

Our Security Approach

RitzeeCare uses administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction.

These safeguards may include, as applicable to the information and systems involved:

Administrative safeguards

  • Written privacy and security procedures

  • Defined workforce responsibilities

  • Privacy and security awareness training

  • Risk review and management processes

  • Incident identification and response procedures

  • Access authorization and termination procedures

  • Vendor and subcontractor review

  • Business continuity and contingency planning

  • Documentation and periodic review of safeguards

Technical safeguards

  • Unique user accounts

  • Strong password requirements

  • Multifactor authentication where supported

  • Role-based or limited system access

  • Encryption in transit and at rest where appropriate

  • Secure communication and file-exchange methods

  • Device and endpoint protections

  • Logging, monitoring, or audit capabilities where available

  • Timely software and security updates

  • Backup and recovery measures appropriate to the system

Physical safeguards

  • Protection of workstations and devices

  • Controlled access to locations where sensitive information may be accessed

  • Screen-lock and secure-storage practices

  • Secure disposal or sanitization of devices and media

  • Procedures intended to prevent unauthorized viewing or removal of information

No system can guarantee absolute security. RitzeeCare evaluates safeguards based on the nature of the information, the services provided, identified risks, contractual requirements, and applicable law.

Access Management

Access to client information is limited to authorized individuals who require it for assigned responsibilities.

Access permissions are established according to job responsibilities and client authorization. Access should be modified or removed when responsibilities change or when access is no longer required.

Client credentials should not be submitted through the public contact form or ordinary email. Access instructions are coordinated through the approved onboarding process.

Vendors and Subcontractors

RitzeeCare may use service providers to support business operations. Providers are evaluated according to the services they perform and the information they may access.

When a subcontractor creates, receives, maintains, or transmits protected health information on RitzeeCare’s behalf, RitzeeCare addresses applicable privacy, security, and Business Associate Agreement requirements before permitting that access.

RitzeeCare does not authorize subcontractors to use client information for their independent marketing purposes.

Information Retention and Disposal

RitzeeCare retains website inquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the inquiry, maintain appropriate business records, satisfy legal or contractual requirements, resolve disputes, and protect legitimate business interests.

Client information is retained and disposed of according to applicable agreements, documented procedures, legal requirements, and operational needs. At the end of an engagement, protected health information is returned or destroyed when required and feasible, subject to the terms of the applicable Business Associate Agreement and any lawful retention obligations.

Paper and electronic information are disposed of using methods appropriate to the sensitivity and format of the information.

Security Incidents

RitzeeCare maintains procedures for identifying, evaluating, documenting, and responding to suspected privacy or security incidents.

When an incident affects client information, RitzeeCare follows the notification and cooperation requirements established by the applicable agreements and law. This may include notifying the affected client, preserving relevant information, supporting an investigation, taking corrective action, and helping the client meet applicable obligations.
