What disease is HIPAA-protected and spread by skin contact?
Any ideas?? Apparently one of our clients where I work has something, so now there’s this new rule that we have to wear gloves 24/7 and immediately wash any part of our body that touches any client’s exposed skin. But no one can tell us what it is due to HIPAA regulations. What the hell could it be? I’m afraid to go to work now… I have kids at home and I’m afraid of bringing back some horrible, incurable, contagious disease…
hipaa protected simply means that the information is private. I’m surprised that caretakers are not in the loop of access. What this actually is is a law that says the patient is due privacy, you don’t answer questions for anyone other than the patient or ones who the patient says may be told (in a written release).
As for what diseases? Anything, including hiv, aids, or pregnancy.
