Premier Shield Benefits
Health Information Collection & Privacy Consent:
Before we discuss potential health coverage options, we ask that you complete a quick questionnaire about your health history. This helps Premier Shield Benefits (PSB) determine whether certain plans are likely to meet your needs before you go through a carrier’s full underwriting process.
This questionnaire may collect medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatments, lifestyle information, basic personal identifiers (name, date of birth, contact information) for the purpose of internal review only, to assess potential plan eligibility and suitability. Premier Shield Benefits will not share information without consent. Your information will not be sent to any insurance carrier, medical provider, or third party without your written authorization. This pre‑qualification is not an offer of coverage nor a guarantee of acceptance. The information provided will be used to determine eligibility and suitability for plans offered through Premier Shield Benefits.
Your Information will be stored securely in accordance with all Health Insurance Patient Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements regarding safe data handling of Protected Health Information. This includes measures such as:
- Stored securely (locked file cabinet for paper, encrypted storage for digital)
- Access limited to authorized personnel only
- Retained only as long as necessary for the stated purpose, then securely destroyed
You may refuse to provide health information; however, this may limit the ability to pre‑qualify you for certain plans. You also understand that you have the right to revoke this consent in writing, except to the extent Premier Shield Benefits has already used or disclosed the protected health information in reliance upon my consent. You may request to review, correct, or have your information deleted at any time
I understand that:
- The information I provide will be used only for pre‑qualification purposes by Premier Shield Benefits.
- My information will not be disclosed to any carrier or third party without my written consent.
