Apply HIPAA rules, and complete a release of record form
for a release of information.
Scenario:
Aaron Jackson was seen at Walden Hospital for a high
fever. You need to help Aaron’s mother
complete a record release form so his record from the
emergency department visit can be sent to the clinic.
She needs to request all records from the visit on the
first of this month. The clinic information is on the
form. The release will expire in 1 month.
Apply HIPAA rules, and protect a patient’s privacy.
Demonstrate sensitivity to a patient and his
rights.
Ken Thomas (date of birth [DOB] 10/25/61) saw Jean Burke
N.P. (nurse practitioner) this past
week. He was diagnosed with acute leukemia after several
tests. You work with N.P. Burke and were
involved with arranging Ken’s tests. Today, Ken’s adult
child, Alex Thomas, calls you. Alex wants to know
what is going on with Ken. You look at Ken’s health
record and see that Alex is not on the disclosure au-
thorization form or a medical records release form. Per
the facility’s policy, for information to be given to
a
patient’s family, a disclosure authorization form must
be completed.
Later, Ken calls and asks why you didn’t update Alex on
his condition. He sounds upset while he is talking
with you.
