Giải thích

HIPAA protects patients' health information, and technicians may not disclose whether someone is a patient or their condition to unauthorized individuals. The technician should politely decline and direct the person to the nurse or facility policy for handling such requests. Even confirming a patient's presence can be a privacy violation.
