Re: Legal training - HIPAA

[Guest guest]

HIPAA - Please guys, play like you know the acronym of the rules or

regulations you are " required " to follow.

We saw HIPPA vs. HIPAA posted on this list for weeks without correcting in

the title. I suspected some of the resident experts to make the correction

but they allowed the error to continue in the subject line. Shame on all of

us for not making the correction.

Re: Legal training

Wes;

How about HIPPA and how it specifically relates to EMS (i.e. what to say,

who can it be said to, what can be said).

How about treatment of minors and legal notification of

parents/guardians.

Possibly a speak on documentation and how what is written may or may not

be interpreted by an attorney in court?

Just a few off the top of my head.

I was just thinking that since so much of what we do involves laws and/or

regulations, it would be good to ask what you'd actually like to have some

boring lawyer lecture to you about...

My humble appoligies. I was thinking of a hippo when I wrote that. Big, ugly,

lots of teeth, and not sure what use they have.

Sounds like a pretty good description of HIPAA to me.
