Guest guest Posted April 10, 2004 Report Share Posted April 10, 2004 Why would anyone what a discussion formated informatin sent to a patient? HIPPA rules are a fact of life now. Even in western medicine one needs to sign a release of infomation form and that form is kept in the file. The practicitioner may own the paper but the patient owns the ink. Unless a patient is versed in TCM, gross misunderstanding is bound to happen. I would think that the liability aspect would be huge. This would prevent me from whating to " chat " about anyones questions in this format. J. M. Steinhoff Lc.A (MD), RN, MSOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
