Making sure the information is 100% accurate and necessary. Also, don’t tell others about patients personal life, or records/ information because it violates HIPAA law.
HIPAA law- (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) is United States legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information.
Hope this helped.

The most important thing when sharing information about a patient is making sure you share correct and current information. Also make sure to keep patient information private and confidential at all other times.

By the way, it's patient.
