Description
Recommend the following edits to the second paragraph under "Additionally Protected Information" (14.5):
Where permitted by law and in accordance with legal requirements and, where appropriate, consent of the individual, release of additionally protected information SHALL always be supported. Release of the information without explicit request of the patient/member SHALL be based on organization policy consistent with Federal and State regulations. Examples are legal requests for information (HIPAA includes specific guidelines around who and which entities are duly authorized to make such requests and processes that must be followed at 45 CFR 164.512(e)-(f) and "break glass" to treat a patient that is unable to provide consent (HIPAA speaks to the conditions that allow covered entities to use or disclose PHI when an individual is incapacitated at 45 CFR 164.510(a)(3)).
