How Information May Be Shared
We may disclose information to service providers that assist with website hosting, scheduling, patient-portal services, electronic health records, payment processing, communications, analytics, information technology, security, and other practice operations.
Service providers are permitted to access information only as needed to perform services for the practice and are expected to protect the information according to their contractual and legal responsibilities. When a vendor creates, receives, maintains, or transmits protected health information on our behalf, we require an appropriate business associate agreement when legally required.

When required or permitted by law

In response to a lawful court order, subpoena, or government request

To protect the rights, safety, or property of the practice, our patients, or others

Cookies, Analytics, Advertising, and Tracking Technologies
This website is built and hosted through Wix and may use Wix platform features, Wix Analytics, cookies, and similar technologies for website operation, security, performance, traffic measurement, and site improvement.
We also use Google Analytics and related Google advertising or measurement services to understand website activity, evaluate advertising performance, measure conversions, and improve outreach. We use Meta technologies associated with Facebook and Instagram for advertising, audience measurement, and conversion tracking. We may also use Snapchat advertising or measurement technologies if those services are activated.
These providers may receive limited technical and usage information, such as your Internet Protocol address, browser and device information, general location, referring page, pages viewed, interactions with website content, and advertising or conversion events. Information collected by these providers is also governed by their own privacy policies and account settings.
You may adjust cookie and advertising preferences through available website controls, your browser settings, and the privacy or advertising settings offered by Google, Meta, Snapchat, and other applicable providers. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some website features operate.
PracticeQ Forms, Scheduling, and Payments
Certain appointment, intake, payment, and administrative forms may be hosted within the PracticeQ platform rather than directly on the public Wix website. Information entered into a PracticeQ-hosted form or payment workflow is processed through PracticeQ and is subject to the privacy, security, and contractual safeguards applicable to that platform. Master’s Hands Family Wellness may receive information necessary to schedule care, maintain records, process payments, or provide requested services.
Email, Text Messages, and Telephone Communications
By providing your email address or telephone number, you authorize Master’s Hands Family Wellness to contact you regarding your inquiry, appointment, account, or care, subject to applicable law and your communication preferences.
Standard email and text messaging may not always be fully secure. Do not use an unsecured communication method to send sensitive medical information unless the practice has instructed you to do so.
Telehealth Privacy and Security
Master’s Hands Family Wellness uses reasonable safeguards intended to protect communications and information associated with telehealth services. Patients are responsible for choosing a reasonably private location and protecting the privacy of their own device, network, and physical surroundings during a telehealth appointment.
Data Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect information under our control against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, or misuse. No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, provide requested services, maintain required records, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, protect the practice and its patients, and enforce applicable agreements and policies.
Children, Third-Party Services, and Your Choices
This website is intended for adults and for parents or legal guardians seeking information or services for a minor. The website may contain links to independent patient portals, booking systems, payment services, maps, social-media platforms, or other third-party services. Review their privacy policies before submitting information.
Depending on the feature involved, you may be able to decline nonessential cookies, unsubscribe from nonclinical promotional emails, avoid submitting information through a public website form, use the patient portal for sensitive communications, or request information about personal information submitted through the website.
Changes to This Policy
We may revise this Website Privacy Policy when our services, technology, vendors, legal obligations, or privacy practices change. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.
2. Cancellation & No-Show Policy
Effective Date: June 2026
Your appointment time is reserved exclusively for you. Timely notice allows us to offer that appointment to another patient who may need care.
Required Notice
You must cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance. If you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice or fail to attend your appointment, the credit card on file will be charged a $50.00 fee.
Late Arrival
Arriving more than 15 minutes late will be treated as a no-show. Depending on the remaining appointment time and clinical circumstances, the visit may need to be rescheduled.
Repeated Missed Appointments
Missing three scheduled appointments within a 12-month period may result in discharge from the practice. Any termination of care will be handled in accordance with applicable professional and legal requirements, including appropriate transition information when required.
Credit Card on File
Before the first scheduled appointment, patients are required to have a valid credit card on file, stored through the practice’s secure electronic health record and payment system.
The card on file may be charged for copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, late-cancellation or no-show fees, and outstanding balances more than 30 days old, consistent with the signed financial and practice policies.
Insurance and Payer Requirements
Cancellation and no-show fees are not billed to an insurance plan as a medical service. Any fee will be applied only when permitted by applicable law and the patient’s payer agreement.
3. Terms of Use
Effective Date: July 18, 2026
These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the Master’s Hands Family Wellness website. By using the website, you agree to these terms.
Website Information Is Not Medical Advice
Website content is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It is not a substitute for an individualized medical evaluation, diagnosis, treatment plan, or advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
No Emergency Services
This website, its contact forms, email features, appointment tools, and patient messages are not intended for emergencies. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department when you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency.
No Automatic Provider-Patient Relationship
Viewing the website, submitting a contact form, or requesting an appointment does not by itself establish a provider-patient relationship. A clinical relationship begins only when the practice accepts the patient for care and an appropriate clinical encounter or legally recognized professional interaction occurs.
Appointment Requests and Telehealth Eligibility
An online request is not a confirmed appointment until the practice provides confirmation. Patients must provide accurate identity, contact, insurance, medical, and physical-location information.
Telehealth services are available only when the provider is legally authorized to care for a patient in the state where the patient is physically located at the time of the appointment. The provider may determine that an in-person evaluation, urgent care, emergency care, laboratory testing, imaging, or specialist care is more appropriate.
Prescriptions and Medical Decisions
No website statement or appointment payment guarantees a prescription, medication, laboratory order, referral, diagnosis, work excuse, prior authorization approval, refill, or requested treatment. Medical decisions remain subject to clinical evaluation, professional judgment, standards of care, and applicable law.
Payments and Insurance
Prices displayed on the website may change. Insurance participation does not guarantee that a particular service will be covered. Patients remain responsible for copayments, deductibles, coinsurance, noncovered services, and other amounts permitted by law and their insurance agreement.
Acceptable Website Use
You may not:
-
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website, portal, accounts, or systems
-
Introduce malware, harmful code, automated attacks, or disruptive technology
-
Use false information or impersonate another person
-
Copy, alter, sell, or exploit website content without authorization
-
Use the website for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, threatening, or harassing conduct
-
Interfere with the website’s security or operation
Intellectual Property and Third-Party Services
Website text, graphics, logos, branding, photographs, videos, downloads, and original design elements are owned by or licensed to Master’s Hands Family Wellness unless otherwise stated.
The website may connect to independent scheduling, patient-portal, payment, financing, map, social-media, or communication services. Master’s Hands Family Wellness does not control and is not responsible for the privacy, security, availability, content, or performance of an independent third party.
Website Availability, Limitation of Liability, and Governing Law
We make reasonable efforts to keep website information accurate and available. The website may contain errors, become temporarily unavailable, or contain information that is no longer current.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Master’s Hands Family Wellness, Wortham & Florence Enterprises LLC, and their owners, employees, contractors, and agents will not be liable for damages arising solely from reliance on general website information, website interruptions, independent third-party services, or misuse of the website.
These Terms are governed by applicable federal law and the laws of the State of Ohio. If any portion is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
4. HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices
The HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices is a separate, comprehensive notice explaining how protected health information may be used and disclosed, the rights patients have regarding their health information, and the responsibilities of Master’s Hands Family Wellness.
Our Notice of Privacy Practices explains how protected health information may be used and disclosed, including treatment, payment, healthcare operations, patient rights, complaint procedures, breach responsibilities, and other uses and disclosures required by law.
Website access does not replace delivery of the notice. The practice must also provide the Notice of Privacy Practices through the appropriate patient intake or first-service process.

5. Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate
Uninsured or self-pay patients may request a written estimate of expected charges for eligible non-emergency services.
A Good Faith Estimate is not a bill.
Patients may receive a Good Faith Estimate when scheduling eligible non-emergency services or when requesting one.
If a final bill is at least $400 more than the Good Faith Estimate, the patient may qualify for the federal patient-provider dispute resolution process.
To request an estimate, contact Master’s Hands Family Wellness using the existing practice contact information below.
Learn more about Good Faith Estimates and medical billing rights on the official CMS website.
