Real-world scenarios are included in all chapters to provide the reader with an opportunity to evaluate and resolve ethical questions. Appendixes with suggested policies and procedures are provided. Contents of this books include discussions regarding ethics and health information as it pertains to these areas:
Attorneys, ethicists, clinicians, physicians, and health information management professionals and academics contributing to the book will explore issues such as data storage, telemedicine and genetic testing. Privacy of medical information is an important issue for health care managers. It has become more significant since the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Electronic storage and coding of patient records and the demands of many players for access to that information is one of the key forces that drove the HIPAA legislation, the cornerstone of which has to do with the privacy and maintenance of privacy of personal medical information. All of these events present the keepers and managers of health information with a host of ethical dilemmas with regard to the handling of the information.
