Privacy & scope

Design the service to need less sensitive information.

The academic prototype is deliberately built around non-clinical support. It demonstrates the principle of collecting and documenting only what is needed to coordinate practical recovery tasks.

Information the prototype may use

Demo name or alias
Preferred contact method
Preferred language
Living and caregiver situation
Practical barrier categories
Non-clinical task status

Information it intentionally does not request

Diagnoses
Medication lists
Symptoms or clinical assessments
Lab or imaging results
Detailed clinical notes
Medical-record uploads
Production requirements

A real program would need formal review before launch.

The final legal and privacy structure depends on how AfterNest is contracted, what information is shared, who controls the workforce, what technology is used, and what services are delivered.

Consent & information sharing

Use partner-approved enrollment, authorization, disclosure, record-retention, and patient-rights procedures rather than improvised waivers.

Technology & access

Use role-based access, secure systems, auditability, data minimization, and an approved policy for what Navigators can document.

Operational scope

Review transportation, home visits, language support, volunteer screening, insurance, and California regulatory requirements before providing real-world services.

Academic prototype only: Nothing on this site should be treated as a final HIPAA, California privacy, licensure, home-care, transportation, insurance, nonprofit, or healthcare-compliance determination. The proposed program would require qualified legal and partner review.
