RE: general type of question

Patients DO have rights and one of them is for PRIVACY!!!! So NO they would NOT be able to enter the exam room unless I had given the okay to do so. They can get all the information they want like others said after THEY make an appointment with the doctor to speak with them on their own time. The time I have with the doctor would be MY time and mine ONLY!!!

I do know that if the WC IC is paying the bill that they are entitled to the information provided from the appointments but was told that if it was my own insurance co. paying for it that they did not have the rights to even know how the appointment went. When I went to the doctors and they suggested a therapist that I would be paying with my own insurance they said that the WC IC would not have the rights to that information. It depends on who is paying the bill I was told.

carpal tunnel recurrence/ neuropathy / RSD.
1/29/07 injury date. Permanent. PIR settlement 8/4/08 10%
