HIPAA in NYS Prison - HIPAA Challenges

Published 2 months ago1 minute read

I work in NYSDOCCS and am always stressing over privacy issues.  I've read a million things about HIPAA but the Internet gives mixed messages.  I've also been told it's different in prison because we are made to have a guard present while conducting medical treatment...but I know I've make numerous errors concerning privacy by talking to inmates too deeply in the presence of other inmates and officers... I made my supervisor aware but I always worry that I should self report further and I hate that stressful feeling...has anyone had experience in this. I'd appreciate feedback because this situation gives me so much anxiety I can barely function
