When would we obtain a patient's Acknowledgement that she received our Notice of Privacy Practices ( NoPP )?

A patient's Acknowledgment of Receipt of the Notice of Privacy Practices (NoPP) is typically obtained during the initial visit or appointment when they are first introduced to the practice. This acknowledgment may be collected through a signed form, confirming that the patient has received and understands the NoPP. If the patient is unable to sign in person, alternative methods such as electronic acknowledgment may be used, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations.
