Answer to Question 2

The federal U.S. law that assures patients of the confidentiality of their medical information is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 . HIPAA protects information about clients that is gathered by examination, observation, conversation, or treatment. A dietitian cannot discuss a client's status with other clients or staff who are uninvolved in the client's care. A legal suit can be brought against a dietitian who has disclosed information about clients without their consent. Dietitians and other health care professionals use records not only to provide care for individual patients, but also as an information source for continuous quality improvement, data gathering, research, or continuing education. This is not a breach of confidentiality as long as the records are used as specified and permission is granted from the institution's internal review board.
