Now I'm annoyed. We called for a state medical patient to get her eyeglass Rx to make a replacement pair of glasses. Original office too far away. Not a full records release, with sensitive pt info and PHI info...the eyeglass script.
Now, this office apparently didn't write out a script before pt left in the first place and now wants to make a big deal to release the script.
I understand the premise of HIPAA, but making someone jump through hoops for the spec Rx seems a bit trivial.
Just venting.
