RE: HIPPA and Patient Follow-up

["David A. Summers" <copterrn@bellsouth.net>]

as this is a question we all may have, please reply on the list, or offer to
condense the private replys.
Our Trauma Center will have major HIPPA changes in place by 14 April.
We do an extensive EMS Outcome Data process, ems report requests, data out,
etc.  I am expecting big changes in the system I have been working on for
the past 14 months......  Big shame.

Cross posted to several lists... if you get this more than once, then....
well.... get over it!  <g>

Anyone figure out a way to do follow-ups on patients brought in by EMS
(ground or air) without violating the new Hippo - er, HIPPA - rules?
