Forbes Industries, doing business as Ellery Health Partners ("Ellery Health Partners," "we," "us," or "our"), operates elleryhealthpartners.com.

Ellery Health Partners provides payer-administration support to independent medical practices, including prior authorization, insurance verification and benefits, claims follow-up, denial and appeal support, and provider credentialing and payer enrollment. Elleryhealthpartners.com is a business-to-business website intended for healthcare practices, practice administrators, billing organizations, and other professionals evaluating Ellery Health Partners services.
Elleryhealthpartners.com is not a patient portal and must not be used to submit patient information or protected health information ("PHI").

Do Not Submit Patient Information Through Elleryhealthpartners.com
The Ellery Health Partners website, contact forms, and the practice inquiry form are not designed or authorized to receive PHI or other patient information.
Do not submit:
- Patient names
- Dates of birth
- Home addresses
- Telephone numbers
- Medical record numbers
- Member or insurance identification numbers
- Authorization or case numbers tied to identifiable patients
- Diagnoses
- Treatment information
- Clinical notes
- Medical records
- Charts
- Patient photographs
- Prescription information
- Laboratory or imaging information
- Any other information that identifies or could reasonably identify a patient
The practice inquiry form intentionally requests only business and operational information.
If patient information is submitted through the public website contrary to these instructions, Ellery Health Partners may take reasonable steps to restrict, remove, secure, or otherwise appropriately address the information.
Information Handled During Client Services
Website inquiries and contracted Ellery Health Partners services are separate.
Submitting a practice inquiry does not authorize Ellery Health Partners to access PHI and does not establish a healthcare-services relationship.
Before Ellery Health Partners accesses PHI on behalf of a healthcare organization:
- The applicable client agreement must be executed.
- A Business Associate Agreement (BAA) must be executed where required.
- The client must provision appropriate access.
- Applicable security, access, and onboarding requirements must be completed.
Whenever operationally feasible, Ellery Health Partners personnel perform contracted payer-administration work inside systems controlled or approved by the client, such as:
- The client’s EHR
- Practice-management systems
- Availity
- Payer portals
- Benefit-management portals
- Client-approved secure document environments
- Client-approved secure fax systems
- Authorized payer telephone workflows
The systems used depend on the contracted service; not every service uses every system.
Ellery Health Partners does not intend to create or maintain a separate public-facing patient database through elleryhealthpartners.com.
If patient information must be transferred outside a client system in connection with contracted services, the approved transfer method and applicable safeguards will be established through the client’s onboarding process and governing agreements.
PHI handled during contracted services is governed by the applicable BAA, service agreement, security requirements, and applicable law rather than by the public practice inquiry form.
How We Use Website Information
- Respond to inquiries
- Evaluate whether Ellery Health Partners services fit a practice’s needs
- Prepare written proposals
- Provide pricing information
- Communicate regarding potential or existing business relationships
- Maintain ordinary business records
- Operate and secure the website
- Prevent spam, fraud, abuse, or unauthorized activity
- Comply with legal obligations
- Protect Ellery Health Partners, our clients, and others
Sale and Advertising Use of Information
Ellery Health Partners does not sell information submitted through the practice inquiry form.
We do not provide practice inquiry form information to advertisers for targeted advertising.
Service Providers
Ellery Health Partners may use third-party providers for functions such as:
- Website hosting
- Form processing
- Business email
- Security
- Analytics
- Infrastructure
- Professional services
These providers may process information as necessary to perform services for Ellery Health Partners.
The public website is not intended to transmit PHI to these providers.
Vendors or subcontractors that may create, receive, maintain, or transmit PHI in connection with contracted healthcare services are addressed separately through appropriate contractual and compliance arrangements where required.
Data Retention
We may retain website inquiries, practice inquiries, business contact information, and related correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- Respond to the inquiry
- Evaluate or establish a business relationship
- Maintain business and contractual records
- Resolve disputes
- Protect against fraud or misuse
- Comply with applicable obligations
Information may be deleted sooner when it is no longer reasonably needed.
Retention of PHI associated with contracted services is governed separately by applicable agreements, client requirements, and law.
Security
Ellery Health Partners uses reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of information processed through the website.
However, no public website, internet transmission, or email service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
For that reason, do not send patient information through elleryhealthpartners.com or ordinary website correspondence.
Client PHI is handled through approved systems and workflows established during onboarding.
Your Choices
You may contact Ellery Health Partners to request correction or deletion of business information you previously submitted through elleryhealthpartners.com.
We may retain information where reasonably necessary for legal, contractual, security, fraud-prevention, or legitimate business-record purposes.

Elleryhealthpartners.com may contain links to third-party websites or platforms. Ellery Health Partners does not control and is not responsible for the privacy, security, availability, or content of third-party websites.
Children
