American Physiatry’s Commitment to Compliance, Patient Rights, and Dignity
At American Physiatry, our mission extends beyond delivering exceptional physical medicine and rehabilitation care — it encompasses an unwavering commitment to compliance, patient rights, and the dignity of every individual we serve.
We adhere to all applicable federal and state laws and regulations, including Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, HIPAA, and civil rights statutes. Our compliance program is built on integrity, accountability, and transparency, ensuring that every aspect of our operations — from clinical care to billing practices — meets the highest legal and ethical standards. We regularly train our staff, audit our processes, and encourage open reporting of concerns without fear of retaliation.
We believe that every patient deserves care that honors their inherent worth. American Physiatry does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, or any other protected characteristic. We ensure access to free language assistance services and auxiliary aids to ensure effective communication for all patients, including those with limited English proficiency or disabilities.
Respecting patient dignity means listening attentively, protecting privacy, involving patients in decisions about their care, and honoring their values, preferences, and cultural backgrounds. Our patients have the right to be fully informed, to ask questions, to voice grievances, and to receive prompt, respectful responses.
Every member of our team shares responsibility for upholding these principles. At American Physiatry, compliance is not merely an obligation — it is a reflection of our deep respect for the people who entrust us with their care.
