Respond to another classmate’s post. Remember to demonstrate more depth and thought than saying things like “I agree” or “You are ” Examples of quality posts include: providing additional information to the discussion, elaborating on previous comments from others, presenting explanations of concepts or methods to help fellow students, presenting reasons for or against a topic in a persuasive fashion, sharing your own personal experiences that relate to the topic, and Providing a URL and explanation for an area you researched on the Internet. This is the initial prompt. You do NOT have to respond to this, It’s only for providing more information:  “You supervise the release of information (ROI) section in the health information management department of an acute care hospital, which is also a Level II regional trauma center. Today the hospital received a subpoena duces tecum from an attorney, demanding either the originals or copies of all health records on Paul Johnson, who was allegedly a patient of the hospital. The ROI clerk came to you, unsure what to do. The subpoena lacks sufficient information for you to determine whether Mr. Johnson is (or was) a patient in the facility. Also, the subpoena was not accompanied by a valid authorization to release information for Mr. Johnson, as required in your state. How should you respond to the subpoena? Specifically address each of the following your initial response: (1) the steps that you should take, as the supervisor, to take to determine whether Mr. Johnson is or was a patient in the hospital; (2) how the organization should respond to the subpoena; and (3) what regulations apply to this request that could be used as justification in your response.”  I need only one paragraph. That’s all, just the one.  Basically, take what it says, agree or disagree, and explain why. Classmate 1: “In the steps as a supervisor, we would need to ensure that we have written consents from the patient, along with correct attached documentations. The provider needs to also ensure that we have allowed time for the patient to object to the subpoena. A valid HIPAA authorization form must also be used, we cannot allow any other form to be used and allow information to be released if it is NOT HIPAA requirements. Once we have all the ducks in a roll for the approval to release the information than we move on to the next step which is what is on the subpoena. If it is asking for specifics, only release the information requested ( unless it is a specially protected record), if it is a entire records request it is everything except specially protected records. If they are looking for the specially protected records we can only deliver that with judge or patient signed request. Ensure that you get the paperwork to the courts by the day they are requesting (some may be a.s.a.p). If a person is deceased same rules apply but the approval signature comes from a personal representative. Keep in mind that if the patient is in suit with the attorney that is requesting the information, there is no need for permission to release information.”

A 22-year-old, pregnant female has been admitted to the emergency room for shortness of breath and chest pain. The patient has a history of pulmonary embolisms (PE) and had a high level D dimer level at her last office visit four (4) weeks ago. The physician has now ordered a chest CT to evaluate for a PE. You have completed the CT pre-scan questionnaire and you have discussed the risks of the exam. The patient is 24 weeks pregnant and the benefits of the exam outweighs the risks. Explain the risks and benefits of the CT scan for a pregnant patient. Explain how you will protect the patient and the fetus from the radiation exposure. Research and explain potential alternative exams to evaluate for pulmonary embolisms. Provide APA formatted in-text citations and reference page to demonstrate researched paraphrase and quoted material.

This activity is comprised of two parts. (100 points) (A two-page response is required for the combination of Parts A and B.) You work in a healthcare technology company that provides software technology to 100 hospitals throughout the United States. As a result, your software stores patient data for about 10 million patients across all of your customers. To better protect data, you’re working on a project to deploy encryption technology across all locations so that all customer data is encrypted. The data is segmented and stored in the following ways: Five million patient data records in Location A Two million patient data records in Location B Three million patient data records in Locations C The encryption project is about 30 percent complete, with Location C being the first to achieve full encryption. Data in this location, even if breached, can’t be viewed or understood by unauthorized individuals. Today, you learned that a breach happened on your network, and hackers were able to gain access to all three locations. Part A: Discuss the purpose of patient breach notifications and whether patient breach notification is required in this case. If so, how many notifications need to go out, and within what timeframe should they be sent? (50 points) Resources:>>>> US Department of Health and Human Services – Health Information Privacy US Department of Health and Human Services – Breach Notification Part B: Select one of the latest breaches reported to HHS in the following link, and draft a breach notification letter to send to those affected.

Recent policy changes have resulted in thousands of children, even very young children, being separated from their parents upon immigrating to the US from Central America. Many children remain in detention centers without their parents. Other citizen children of immigrant parents have faced separations from parents who have been deported.Please read the articles below and write a brief (1-3 page) thought paper answering the following questions: Based on what you’ve learned about attachment, toxic stress, and the effects of adverse childhood experiences (from our readings and class discussions), what would you expect to see in the brain development of children who have experienced these separations? What would you expect to see in their behavior? What recommendations would you make to optimize their healthy development?Please remember that this question is about the children affected by immigration policies, not about the policies themselves, which people may have strong feelings about. Feel free to disagree with your peers, but please remain respectful to opposing opinions in your response. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/07/30/how-many-migrant-children-separated-parents-us-mexico-border/1873561001/https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/research/us-citizen-children-impacted-immigration-enforcement
