Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reviewing information about the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following statements by the newly licensed nurse indicates a need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: "Information about a client can be disclosed to family members at any time." This statement indicates a need for further teaching because under HIPAA regulations, healthcare providers must obtain patient consent before disclosing any personal health information to family members. This is to protect patient privacy and confidentiality. Family members do not have an automatic right to access a patient's health information without consent. The other choices are incorrect because they are accurate statements about HIPAA.
Choice B correctly states that HIPAA is a federal law.
Choice C correctly identifies a client's address as personally identifiable information.
Choice D correctly explains that HIPAA regulations cover individually identifiable health information in various forms.
