Healthcare Providers and Privacy
Privacy Protection for Healthcare Providers

To protect your privacy, Intercilium Inc. does not require PHDtoGo users to enter personally identifiable information either about themselves or their healthcare providers.

In fact, we strongly urge PHDtoGo users not to put their physicians' or healthcare providers' names, specialty, phone numbers or addresses in their personal health diary.

Unwelcome Exposure

As a healthcare provider, you know that access to your professional and personal data could become a weapon in the hands of the wrong people.

  • The information could be used to intimidate or even harm you,
    especially if you treat people suffering from particularly sensitive conditions.
  • Using data compiled from Web sites, physicians could be ranked or
    have their practise styles scrutinized.
  • Your personal or professional data could be distributed or sold to third
    parties for commercial purposes.
  • You could receive inappropriate questions from people with whom you
    do not have a doctor-patient relationship. This unsolicited communication
    could interfere with your medical efficiency, as well as the quality of
    medical care you provide.
