No! Joe's parents should not have received information about Joe's condition because he had "opted out" of sharing information with family and friends. In addition, Dr. Steve should not have reviewed Joe's records unless he was directly involved in Joe's medical care.
Joe McCleod, who is a recent college graduate, has been admitted to the ER for treatment. He "opted out" of communications with family and friends and specifically indicated that nothing about his condition or treatment was to be discussed with his parents. Unable to learn what is happening with their son, Mr. & Mrs. McCleod ask their friend, Dr. Steve, who isn't involved in Joe's care, to review Joe's records. Dr. Steve reviews the records and informs Joe's parents that Joe has hepatitis B and shows signs of drug abuse. Were proper procedures followed when sharing information with Joe's parents? Explain your answer.
No! The ER should have first checked to see if Julie had requested additional privacy ("opt-out") and if not, only have answered, "Julie is in fair condition."
Julie, a hospital clinic employee, was in a car accident and brought by ambulance to the ER. Her physicians discovered that she was pregnant. Julie's clinic co-worker, Sarah, found out Julie was in the ER and called to ask about her condition. Sarah was told Julie suffered minor bruises and cuts, but was stable.
