Compliance on Consent, privacy and Security of Electronic Health records
Süžeeskeem Tekst
- Not a problem. First check if the provider is listed in the patient consent form, second check the date when the consent was obtained and if it is still valid.
- Hi, can you help me with something? One of my patients is requesting his medical records to be shared with a provider in another facility. Could you tell me what I should check in this matter?
- yes, that is very important. According to HIPAA privacy and security rules PHI of a patient may not be sent beyond a specific time frame
- Yes I checked if the provider was included in which he was, but I did not pay attention to the expiry date.
- Additionally the risk analysis committee can release a PHI of patient without authorization / consent upon specific cases like child abuse, elderly neglect, public health law, if there is a detection of fradulent activity.
- Thank you very much. It was very helpful to refresh on consent policies. I’ll better get going to check on the expiration date on the consent form for the information to be shared.
