stealth61 [152]

It's true that patients have to provide an additional, specific authorization for training uses and disclosures of their information.

<h3>In which circumstances would a patient's written authorization to release PHI be required?</h3>

For any use or disclosure of protected health information that is not for treatment, payment, or health care operations or otherwise permitted or required by the privacy rule, a covered entity must seek the individual's written authorization.

<h3>What does the federal provision for "incidental uses and disclosures" mean? </h3>

Incidental uses and disclosures are not punishable if sufficient protections are in place and there is no carelessness.

  • By refraining from using patients' names in public corridors and elevators, and by placing signs reminding personnel to respect patient confidentiality;
  • By separating or locking file cabinets or record rooms.

Specifics from the scenario

Lasix is prescribed along with Accupril to the hypertensive patient because;

  • High blood pressure reading of 150/92 in spite of being on the antihypertensive Accupril for the past four months
  • Bilateral lower extremity edema.  

Explanation:

Blood pressure medications which act as calcium channel blockers like Accupril will widen the constricted blood vessels to allow for more blood and fluid to flow easily.

This sometimes leads to an excess amount of fluid in the circulatory system which gets accumulated in the lower extremities. This leads to edema of the feet, especially in the ankle region.  

To treat this fluid accumulation in the feet, a diuretic class drugs are prescribed as an adjuvant. Loop diuretics like Lasix (furosemide) act by lowering the blood pressure as well as reducing the fluid content by increased urine output.
