Answer to Question 1

False. (The client's medical information is protected by federal confidentiality rules and the recipient of the information may not re-disclose the records to a third party.)

Answer to Question 2

Organizations such as a commercial laboratory, data processing company, collection agency, and other professional services can allow agencies with a signed Business Associate's Agreement access to the substance abuse client's private information.

Answer to Question 3

False. (42 C.F.R. is more restrictive. Disclosure of client information regarding who is seen in a federally assisted substance abuse program is strictly prohibited.)

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
