Arkansas is going home tomorrow after they lose to Ole Miss.
Cal will be happy. He can get an early jump on the intense ncaa game prep he does lol
No, HIPPA does not prevent Calipari from discussing Thiero's mystery injury. Unless, that is, the University of Arkansas is a health plan, health care clearinghouse or qualifying healthcare provider (or business associate of one of those).Because of HIPPA laws you can't just put somebody's medical information out.
Ok Brad...Except he never said those things.
Cal always wanted to win the SEC
And he has more SEC wins than anyone not named Rupp.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 establishes federal standards protecting sensitive health information from disclosure without patient's consentNo, HIPPA does not prevent Calipari from discussing Thiero's mystery injury. Unless, that is, the University of Arkansas is a health plan, health care clearinghouse or qualifying healthcare provider (or business associate of one of those).
As the title of the Act suggests, HIPPA is all about the portability of health insurance and the accountability of group health plans to provide benefits when members have pre-existing conditions. HIPPA’s privacy rule is not a major aspect of the law, AND only apply to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and healthcare providers who transmit health information in electronic form (or the business associates of one of those). In fact, the statute itself does not even set out any rules regarding privacy - it’s just an agency rule applicable to a very few entities.
So, HIPPA does not prevent Calipari from talking about or stating Thiero’s injury. Some other policy of the University might be involved or maybe he’s just respecting Thiero’s wishes, but HIPPA is not to blame. And this mystery injury nonsense is exactly what Calipari did at UK – and yet, Pope has no problem discussing with the media and informing fans (often is some detail) about Kriisa’s broken foot, Butler’s left shoulder injury and Robinson’s right wrist injury and subsequent surgery.
You don't understand how it works or who it applies to (e.g., Calipari).The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 establishes federal standards protecting sensitive health information from disclosure without patient's consent
Even in workplaces it's vodo to talk about other peoples personal health problems.
Nobody can talk about my medical problems unless I give them permission.You don't understand how it works or who it applies to (e.g., Calipari).
Oh, Cal has no update? He probably hasn’t seen him.Nobody can talk about my medical problems unless I give them permission.
Could he say he is out for the year YES but nothing about a specific problem.
The last thing that been said about it was he was still rehabbing and they had received no update.
Not true. I can talk about your specific medical problems to anyone. So can the clerk at the grocery store. AND so can Calipari as far as HIPPA is concerned. Privacy is not even what HIPPA is really about to start with. The administrative privacy rule associated with the Act (it's not even in the HIPPA statute) only applies to the entities I previously stated. So, unless Calipari sells healthcare plans or moonlights as a medical provider on the side, you're just wrong that HIPPA is Calipari's excuse for his penchant to always have as much mystery as possible surrounding his players injuries (regardless of how minor). I think he does this to try to build in excuses or provide cover for guys sitting out for draft purposes.Nobody can talk about my medical problems unless I give them permission.
