HIPPA doesn't override my professional responsibilities.
Of course, those are your professional responsibilities as YOU see them. The will of The People which you AGREED to obey when you begged for a license from the state is very clear cut in what your responsibilites are. You obey the regulations, or you don't deserve a license. That's to protect The People. Your Patients. From cases where your judgement of your professional responsibilities don't agree with what the rest of society has deemed them to be. Don't want to obey The State's regulations in all their glory? Give up your license. Don't say you're being moral when you PROMISED to obey the regulations, then BREAK YOUR PROMISE when convenient. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
