Need info about the new Obama SCHIP children's health insurance program...when will it start?

We Answered:

Obama can't change laws. He doesn't have that POWER. He can't unilaterally implement programs. That's not how this government works.

Any CHIP program changes, will still have to pass the senate, before Obama can sign them, and they likely won't take effect - IF they pass - for at least six more months.

Can the health visitor of a child in care disclose medical info on the mum to a 3rd person without authority?

We Answered:

Absolutely not. Any medical documentation that has to do with your daughter, or anyone else, without specific permission from the party involved (being your daughter) - under no circumstance, can be reviewed by anyone other than her doctor.

Medical records are strictly confidential. Any unauthorized viewing breaks that confidentiality.

And since your daughter isn't the one involved in the accident, the care provider has no grounds to release any information to any party without consent. Especially since the care provider is a childcare provider. The only other exception that could be considered is that unless a court of law has ordered such information disclosure under the circumstance that there is undeniable evidence that your daughter's records are necessary to be reviewed by a 3rd party to determine whether your grandson's accident has anything to due with abuse (i.e. knowing that her husband has abusive tendencies, and the accident could have prevented, etc.) - than her records should have not been disclosed once-so-ever.
