Answer to Question 2

D
Widespread access to health records raises important issues of confidentiality and privacy. Clients are currently concerned about the privacy of their records, particularly when these reflect some of the highly sensitive personal disclosures that may occur in mental health and psychiatric practice. Inappropriate disclosure of medical or psychiatric data may threaten an individual's employment, community status, or general future prospects.
