1. No permit has been - for all we know that the lawyer could be an impostor or a journalist.

2. Authorization - must be a clear explanation of what must be disclosed. Necessary in most cases only the offices of Dr. / hospital to share a need for knowledge. In the event of an accident, only advice was what the patient (probably) a diagnosis of trauma and how he was treated (surgery) ... nothing

3. Even without authorization - the treatment of HIV / alcohol / drug records will not be disclosed unless it is clearly documented, will be released from Paula.

Dr. Bob and his office manager (who probably needs training HIPAA) are to blame - quite
