What is Neko Clinic?
Neko Clinic is a different kind of clinical provider, focused on
preventative health and wellness. Neko Clinic is not a full-service
medical practice; we encourage you to continue seeing your treating
clinician(s) for any medical diagnosis or health condition currently
under treatment or identified through our services. We are happy to
share your Neko Clinic results and information with your other
clinicians, as instructed by you.
The cornerstone of our services is the Neko Body Scan, which is a
preventative body scan comprised of a range of tests that is used by
Neko Clinic's licensed clinicians to investigate the health of your
heart, blood vessels, metabolism, and skin (the “Services”).
The Neko Body Scan is a noninvasive scan of your body and does not use
radiation. In addition to the Neko Body Scan, we may also take bloodwork
for laboratory testing or conduct other non-invasive testing to complete
your health profile. The Services are intended to provide a broad view
of your health, including over time with subsequent scans and testing.
The Services also include a personalized consultation with a licensed
provider to explain your results and discuss any questions or concerns
you may have. As a personal health and wellness clinic, we do not
currently participate with any health insurance plans and most of our
Services are not covered by any payor. Accordingly, we are not a
“covered entity” subject to the Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and are not required to comply with
HIPAA. Nevertheless, we have implemented security controls and privacy
procedures to ensure that your personal information remains confidential
and secure. We are also subject to consumer health privacy laws in the
states where Neko Clinic operates.
This Notice sets out how the Neko Clinic locations collect, use, and
disclose your personal information. By using the Services, you are
consenting to the practices described in this Notice. Please refer to
the
Privacy Notice of Neko Health
for information about how Neko Health collects, maintains, uses, and
discloses your personal information.

We refer to all of the information above as “personal

operating system or device. Certain smartphone devices have settings
that may allow you to limit certain types of tracking.
