PDF Editor FAQ

Can a coroner discuss medical reports with a non-family member? The coroner discussed my son's report with his family. Can we sue him?

The answer to your question really depends on what was released as well as state and federal laws. The coroner’s report itself is public information in most if not all states in the US. (I have to say most if not all because I didn’t look). Medical records are another issue and they are private. However, in such cases, the complaint would most likely fall under HIPAA. This does not create a private right to sue, but allows you to complain to the Department of Health and for the Department of Health to fine the individual or office depending on the circumstances.[1][1][1][1]I doubt you would have a basis to sustain a lawsuit, but speak with a lawyer who is familiar with privacy laws and medical records in your state. They would be able to tell you more.I am sorry your son passed away.Footnotes[1] Filing a HIPAA Complaint[1] Filing a HIPAA Complaint[1] Filing a HIPAA Complaint[1] Filing a HIPAA Complaint

What recourse do I have when my doctor violates my HIPAA rights by sending my personal health information to the wrong address? I was notified by the people at the address, not by my doctor's office.

I will disagree with most of the other answers here, especially those that state HIPAA requires the release to be ‘intentional.’ Those that have received HIPAA fines as the result of social engineering campaigns would likely disagree.You certainly may contact a healthcare attorney, but one us unlikely to take your case. Unless you can show you were harmed in some way (specifically in a way that caused you financial harm), you are unlikely to convince an attorney to take your case.Your best recourse is to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights (“OCR”). This is the Office that enforces HIPAA. You can file a complaint online at (Filing a HIPAA Complaint). This is unlikely to result in any financial benefit to you, but OCR will investigate all complaints and your doctor will be made aware of the complaint. The result will depend on the specific facts of the case and how your doctor responds to OCR’s requests.

How do I file a HIPAA complaint against an individual who is using a minor child’s health information in court without consent?

It depends.Was the child’s health put at issue in a proceeding?For example, in a divorce, if Spouse 1 says Spouse 2 abused the child, and here is the proof, as the parent of the child (with legal capacity to consent to the release of the records) the parent has waived any confidentiality associated with medical records used as proof. Spouse 2 cannot complain because a person with authority and capacity to consent to the release has done so.If raised by the non-custodial parent, however, and one without capacity to consent, there might be an issue. The easiest thing to do to stop it from later harming the child is to ask for a protective order for the medical records such that no one other than those directly involved in the case (lawyers, judge, experts) can use them, and demand that they be shredded and removed from the Court file at the end of the proceeding.
