Substances abuse records are afforded extra-special privacy protections.
Substance abuse records are considered ultra-protected records. They are afforded these special protections because, procedurally, they are so sensitive. They are sensitive because they can contain specifics into the type of drugs or alcohol that are in play. Mental health records are also considered extra-special. No release of records containing record of substance abuse or mental health records can be done unless there is authorization or a court order. A regular subpoena is not sufficient. Our speaker reviews this type of record and where records can be submitted without authorization, as well as how to respond when special information is within a medical chart.
