Question

If disclosure of PHI is permitted under HIPPA, what is disclosed?

Answer 1

All info that particular doctor has on that patient

Step-by-step explanation:

Protected health information (PHI) is the term that refers to all information about a patient that is stored with the doctor and is confidential. This information is about the patient's health status, payment for services, what services were used, how services were applied to the patient, among other things. This information is highly confidential, however, its disclosure may be authorized by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

Answer 2

The minimum information necessary to accomplish the purpose of the disclosure is provided by HIPPA if the individual who is the subject or patient gives an authorization in writing to HIPPA or unless the use or disclosure is permitted by another provision of the HIPAA Privacy Rule.

Moreover, the HIPAA Privacy Rule specifies that it will allow disclosure of PHI for the covered entity if it is for the purpose of its own treatment, payment or any health care operations.
