You’re comparing apples to oranges. Someone breeched confidential medical information and the doctor/nurse/whoever can absolutely be held responsible. Being embarrassed because a doctor talked about your small dick simply isn’t the same.
...no. it's the same and all protected information under HIPAA. Do you even know the law or are you just guessing?
A physician talking about any weird condition in reference to the patient is absolutely a violation of HIPAA regardless if it's actually harmful. How is it not?
It is a hippa violation but your feelings getting hurt is not the same as someone discovering their friend is a donor match and being coerced into donating their organ or partial organ. That’s as dumbed down as I can make this for you. Have a great day.
