GAO Report: Questions Remain About Implementing the HIPAA Consent Requirement
U.S. Government Accountability Office [GAO] Link to more items from this source
Apr. 6, 2001
16 pages. "The Department of Health and Human Services issued a final regulation in December 2000 that established rights for patients with respect to the use of their medical records. The regulation requires that most providers obtain patient consent to use or disclose health information before engaging in treatment, payment, or health care operations.... Supporters of the requirement believe that the process of signing a consent form provides an opportunity to inform and focus patients on their privacy rights." [GAO-01-584, Apr. 6, 2001]
