1. Explain what HIPPA is and what the federal law’s position on patient privacy
1. Explain what HIPPA is and what the federal law’s position on patient privacy is. Look up and list two laws (statutes) in the Act.
2. Research and list 3 state laws on patient privacy using the state you were assigned in a previous announcement. Becuase laws are often very long, do NOT copy and paste what you found. Instead, provide the citation for the 3 laws and specify whether this a statute or regualtion. Next, read through the laws and summarize the gist of EACH law in 2-3 sentences.
3. Read the court case Tarasoff v. Regents of University of California (link below). This is a case where the court tried to balance patient confidentiality with a therapist’s duty to warn. Do you agree with the court’s decision? Why or why not? Provide a discussion in light of HIPPA and the state laws that you found for Q2. Make sure you explain your reasoning.
