Sorry, posted inthe wrong thread. This is the right place for my inquiry.
If a worker in the IT department of a hospital, who comes in contact with nursing staff ALL the time, had the following happened, would it be any type of HIPAA violation:
Would it be a violation for a nurse to tell IT Tech about a patient's condition (no name or other identifiable information)?
Would it be a violation for that IT Tech to later that day tell other IT co-workers about this patient's condition(no name or other identifiable information)?
