Part 2:

  1. HIPPA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. It is a federal law that protects the privacy of patient health information. The federal law's position on patient privacy is that it is a fundamental right that must be protected.  

  2. Here are three state laws on patient privacy in Florida:

    • The Florida Patient's Bill of Rights: This law gives patients the right to access their medical records, to have their medical records corrected, and to have a copy of their medical records sent to another healthcare provider.
    • The Florida Medical Records Privacy Act: This law prohibits healthcare providers from disclosing patient information without the patient's consent.
    • The Florida Mental Health Counseling Act: This law prohibits mental health counselors from disclosing patient information without the patient's consent, except in certain limited circumstances.
  3. The Tarasoff v. Regents of the University of California case is a landmark case in the law of patient confidentiality. In this case, the court held that a therapist has a duty to warn potential victims of violence when the patient has made specific threats of violence. I agree with the court's decision in this case. I believe that a therapist has a duty to warn potential victims of violence, even if it means violating the patient's confidentiality. This is because the potential harm to the victim outweighs the patient's right to confidentiality.
