Abstract

The issue of confidentiality when applied to modern American healthcare is fraught with differing objectives, creating myriad complications as the needs of each attempt to merge together in their search for common ground and compromise. To arrive at a sense of clarity, we must look to those exceptions that define the fundamental system of rules at the heart of our nation’s health care structure, as the conflicting areas to be found within shed light on the vulnerabilities of the concept as a whole. At the crossroads where HIPAA now stands, a decision must be made whether to let HIPAA kill health care through its preordained powerlessness, or whether HIPAA itself must be laid to rest.
