Committed to your privacy
AHS is committed to protecting your privacy
and keeping your health information safe —
it’s the right thing to do, and it’s the law.

Everyone using Connect Care is trained to put


patients first. This includes respecting your
privacy by restricting access to your health
information to only those providers who need
to see it to care for you. Connect Care has
tools to track and monitor who is accessing
your information in order to make sure health
information policies are being followed.

Connect Care will also reduce the number of


computer systems we use, so we can focus
our cyber security efforts.
