SUD patient record confidentiality
HHS Finalizes New Provisions to Enhance Integrated Care and Confidentiality for Patients with Substance Use ConditionsToday, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through its Office for Civil Rights and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration , finalized modifications to the Confidentiality of Substance Use Disorder Patient Records regulations at 42 CFR part 2 , which protect the privacy of patients’ SUD treatment records.
“The Final Rule strengthens confidentiality protections while improving care coordination for patients and providers. Patients can seek needed treatment and care for substance use disorder knowing that greater protections are in place to keep their records private, and providers can now better share information to improve patient care,” said OCR Director Melanie Fontes Rainer.
Permits redisclosure of Part 2 records by HIPAA covered entities and business associates in accordance with the HIPAA Privacy Rule, with certain exceptions.
