Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. The minimum - necessary rule in healthcare privacy allows disclosures for treatment, to the subject, and with authorization. Disclosures for unknown purposes are not an exception.
  2. Patient privacy must be protected, so one should not discuss private information about others.
  3. Shredding documents with PHI (Protected Health Information) is a best - practice for privacy and security, so not shredding them is not a best practice.

Answer:

  1. Disclosures to a healthcare provider for unknown purposes
  2. Tell them you cannot discuss any private information.
  3. Do not shred documents containing PHI prior to discarding.
