Private health information is inclusive of all information relating to your personal health condition, including the physician(s) involved.

The patient is the only party who may disclose their personal health information, PERIOD!

The wrestler participated in an activity at a public high school, in view of the general public, and provided a medical waiver in order to participate. The student, like it or not, waived his/her right to privacy, and any expectation he/she may have had to privacy. The medical waiver is considered confidential.

Were Mr. Lane to provide the name of the physician in a public forum, he would not be guilty of slander. Slander is what you say.

Libel is what you write.

Lastly, the identity of the parties involved in a lawsuit only becomes public when the lawsuit is filed in the appropriate District Court.

I can disclose any information about me I desire. If I hire a professional (doctor, lawyer, C.P.A., etc.) I have a right to privacy which by law must be honored.

Trust me!
