Newbie to healthcare here with a very basic question: if a provider stores medical records electronically, and a patient requests those records to be sent via mail, is it still considered ePHI/EHI? In other words, is it the way the data is maintained rather than the method of transmission? (Asking in context of new Information Blocking rule)

The way that the data is maintained.

Both ways

I thought email isnt allowed. Ous EMR provided a patient logon portal for them to download their ePHI. Its my understanding that anything medical (diagnosis, treatment) plus anything that can indentify someone (PII) makes it ePHI regardless of what form that data is in (ie paper, zipfile, pdf, jpg...). Someone please correct me if im wrong.

Email isnt good because it isnt encrypted - fails security rule. Additionally, its easy to email the wrong person and get a violation.

I don’t want things to go “back to normal,” and lately I’ve been reading what feels like a lot of disingenuous arguments for reopening “for people’s mental health.” As someone who was suffering from the way things were before and is now thriving from the slowdown (both in work and personal life), I wish we could all stop pretending like we were living in some mental health utopia before the shut down.

I’m struggling to figure out that out because I used to gauge it on the feeling I got while in their office during interviews. Any suggestions would be helpful :)
