My HIV status was disclosed by medical provider without my permission Jul 14, 2005 My HIV status was disclosed by my medical provider. My medical records were subpoened as a result of a separate issue not relating to my HIV. My medical provider responded to the subpoena and left in detail a message about my HIV status on an opposing attorney's voicemail. This has all been confirmed by all parties involved. What are my rights? |

 You have the right, which I encourage you to exercise immediately, to file a complaint under HIPAA. Find your local Equal Employment Opportunity Commission office or an ACLU office and ask how to file the claim. There are fat fines for behavior like this. | ||||||||
