What makes you think HIPPA only applies to medical personnel??

All medical information is protected from the eyes of any not authorized to see it.

The following entities must follow The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations. The law refers to these as “covered entities”:

Health plans
Most health care providers, including doctors, clinics, hospitals, nursing homes, and pharmacies
Health care clearinghouses
HIPAA also applies to covered entities’ business associates (i.e., third parties that perform certain functions or activities that require the use of personal health information (PHI) including, for example, claims processing or administration). Entities that provide data t***smission of PHI on behalf of a covered entity (or its business associate) and that require access on a routine basis to that PHI (such as regional Health Information Organizations (HIOs)) are considered to be business associates under HIPAA. Health information organizations that facilitate the exchange of electronic PHI primarily for treatment purposes between and among several health care providers.

For more information on covered entities or business associates, visit the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights.

It would be a violation if Trumps proctologist gave the records to the feds unless of course they had a warrant. If he left those same records in files with the stolen top secret documents he had they have every right to them.

The health records weren't a part of the search warrant. They are protected from everyone by HIPPA. Had they been a part of the warrant and they had shown good reason for taking them, the FBI would be in the right to take them. But they weren't.

nwtk2007 Loc: Texas

That might be the case. We don't know. Otherwise they have violated HIPPA law.

I'll bet that once they realized they had his medical records, they sealed them up and didn't look at them. LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe you will read it this time. Or maybe you just prefer to remain ignorant.

Simple fact, unless a judge says you can, you may not take someone's health records. The health records were not named on the warrant.

Simple fact, if you possess another person's heth records, you must follow hippa laws.

Stolen documents?? What stolen documents?
A federal court has set presidency on the ownership of any and all p**********l documents. Judicial watch brought a case against Bill Clinton after he left office to obtain some recordings he had took from the White House and had in his home. The court ruled against judicial watch and they did not get the tapes. The court said that ALL p**********l records were the property of the former president. The records were totally unreveiwable and no one could question his classification or unclassification of any documents. What this case said was that all p**********l records belong the president who made those records not the next president or anyone unless the former president agrees to let others have them. Subsequently Trump can do what he wants with his p**********l records according to this federal courts decision.

Actually the health records were in a file marked "top secret". The FBI seized them but returned them to Trump when they realized the files contained records of his s*x c****e operations.

Tiptop789 Loc: State of Denial

Actually, he can't. Ask the records are US govt property.

You’re obfuscating. Those entities are not allowed to share your records without HIPPA being waived. The lady in my office has been doing healthcare for thirty years so STFU.

moldyoldy

More right wing BS.

Judicial Watch sought the tapes from the Clinton P**********l Library in Little Rock, but was told that they are not and have never been in the custody of the Archives, which runs the library. In addition, then-Deputy Archivist Adrienne Thomas said she was declining to deem the records to be "p**********l records" under the law.
