Basic tenant Hipaa is a joke has nothing to do with privacy, has so many loop hole from the politicians. In principle it was a good law implementation has been a nightmare no one knows what the hell it means.
So general rule of thumb we need to be able to authorize who is allowed access to the data in manner that ensures the patient has given consent for that individual or organization to acces the data. Then we need to create a log of of what was shared how long, if the data was printed or saved by that user. Again the person with whom the data is being shared should not have the right to just grab a record and save to their files or print them without the patients expressed consent.
