Your Health Information - Privacy Consent Form
Our practice, Dr Boris Cherkasski trading as MDS Manningham Dental Specialists, respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Our Privacy Policy is available on request.
We collect personal and health information to provide you with safe and appropriate dental care. This may include your contact details, medical and dental history, health insurance information, and other information required to manage your treatment, appointments, accounts, and payments.
Where necessary for your care, we may collect information from or share information with other healthcare providers involved in your treatment. If you choose not to provide information relevant to your care, we may be unable to provide appropriate treatment or the services you require.
Your clinical records, including medical history, treatment notes, radiographs, photographs, scans, and other relevant records, will be securely stored by the practice. In some cases, our electronic records may be securely stored using cloud-based service providers located outside Australia. Any overseas disclosure will comply with our obligations under the Australian Privacy Principles.
To improve the accuracy and efficiency of our clinical records, we may use secure Artificial Intelligence (AI) software to assist in recording and summarising clinical conversations during your appointment. AI-generated documentation is used solely to support your treating clinician, who reviews and verifies all records before they become part of your clinical file. Your information remains confidential and is handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws and our Privacy Policy.
You may request access to, or correction of, your personal information, or make a privacy complaint, as outlined in our Privacy Policy. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your privacy, please contact our Privacy Officer during business hours.
By signing below, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Consent and consent to the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your personal and health information as described above, including the use of AI-assisted clinical documentation.
