Hillary Medical Records about to be leaked?? - Unconfirmed

If this was about Bush.

Dan Rather and CBS would have lead with this.

The internet is much bigger now. No need for CBS to get the word out. This is an orchestrated disinfo scam though -- in much the same way.

Like I said, when things start getting hot for Hillary, they will pull mental incapacity to get her off criminal and civil charges. The most she'll get is house arrest. If these documents are real, the leak is deliberate which means something really big is coming down the pipe.

Cheers - Dave

Have you actually had the training?

It tells you what the things are that are protected and that sharing them is a violation, but unless you employer takes precautions, there are no procedures in place. The HIPAA training itself just tells what protected info is and not to share it.

Any security on any records and info relies solely on each employer. Feel safer now?

This is a forgery for several reasons. I know because I used to type dictation.

1. Where it states Present Complaint it should be Patient Complaint.
2. After patient complaint: it should say - patient presents with blah blah blah
3. The lack of comas and semicolons.

There are other tell-tale signs but you get the gist.

So, you seem to have some inside information?
Be careful, that makes you an accomplice?
And it does not make it less against the law.

There are some situations where I would say a whistle blower had good reason, but releasing medical information would not be on my list.

Thank you for the concern honey cakes, kiss kiss.. I may have a ton of inside knowledge about a lot of things. But sweetie, this came from her public twitter page.

Those single page reports are prepared for the patient needing to verify their health status. Nothing phony looking about it to me. I've seen lots of them. It would be given to the patient to pass along to whomever needs to know about their medical condition in regards to ability to work, to drive an automobile or to obtain insurance of some sort. It is quite a common document.
Her actual medical record would be quite different, this is just a report.

However, for everyone offended at the thought that someone could leak something like this ... weren't there private tax documents released by IRS employees during the last election cycle?

That information is at least as sensitive.

Double post---what's up with this crazy internet connection?

Honey cakes? Kiss kiss? Sweetie? Are you serious? WTF?

Because Ronnie believed in Americans.
Hillary only believes in cash.

We take precautions. There are strict procedures regarding who has access to what information, who has physical access to files, what information we are allowed to ask for, etc.

I have not personally had official training, but our HR manager has, and she gives training to the rest of us supervisors regarding the procedures. And in my work in IT, I have to have to take further action due to protections on confidential information.

And our HR manager is super-diligent about everything, including reminding everyone.

A doctor's office can not even share information with an insurance company or other doctor without signed permission from the patient.

As much as I would like to believe this, I have to call fake. First,the typing on the page is not professional, contains typos, and spacing differences.

Second, Lisa Bardack is an internist and not Board Certified in the field of neurological diseases. Not for one second would I believe Hillary Clinton would go to a Board Certified Internist rather than aboard Certified Physician in Psychiatry and Neurology as well as Geriatric diseases.

"A Neurologist specializes in the evaluation and treatment of all types of disease or impaired function of the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, muscles and autonomic nervous system, as well as the blood vessels that relate to these structures. These disorders include: stroke, brain and spinal tumors, muscular dystrophy, headache and other pain, meningitis, encephalitis, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and other memory disorders, multiple sclerosis and effects of systemic diseases, like high blood pressure and diabetes, on the nervous system."

Sorry to rain on the parade.

True, but as stated in the report, she was reading off the results from testing already completed and signed off by a specialist. Plus the MMSE is performed by internists.

I get the what you're saying, there is the clear possibility it is a forgery.

a reply to: elouina

I understand your concern but I rained on my own parade too.

I'd say fake, but it would be interesting to see if some of our expert image analystsfind out from the source image and see what the exif? data reveals?

LOL, that would be some serious strategy planning right there.

THIS, I concur.

IF this is real (which I highly doubt), then it is highly illegal to obtain these documents.
It is a violation of HIPAA to release medical information.

I was at a HIPAA security conference last week... Roughly 80% of all medical offices are not HIPAA compliant... It's honestly worrisome how reckless so many medical offices are..

The timing of this "leak" is too convenient. It's as if an ATS reader threw something together based on recent threads.

That being said, sometimes we make things too complicated. Those could be simple HMO referral letters. If so, Hillary and Bill should retire, and enjoy what's left of life.

p.s. I was a full-time health insurance broker until Obama phucked our industry over. As others have said, we see those referral letters all the time. The only thing we need now is confirmation of their authenticity. Maybe ask Hillary about them at her next press conference?

Hi Paar is a bit silly. I always thought the only reason it existed was for politicians to protect themselves.
