Medical Records Law in Illinois

 

Litigation and Other Special Considerations in Releasing Medical Records

This section is not intended to include a comprehensive or detailed review of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (H.I.P.A.A.), and regulations issued thereunder. H.I.P.A.A., however, has had a definite impact upon a number of the procedures and issues that are discussed below. When “protected health information” is involved, the standards and requirements of the H.I.P.A.A. regulations preempt any contrary provisions of State law, with certain exceptions. See 45 CFR 160.203. The pertinent exceptions to the general rule that H.I.P.A.A. preempts State law with regard to the disclosure of protected health information are as follows:
