A clinic with locations in the Lincoln and Wicker Park neighborhoods billing itself as an opportunity to witness “diversity in practice” with no apparent reference to the psychiatric survivor’s movement advertised an event which is now sold out for their Mental Health Movie Processing Group. I agree about how traditional cinema lacks the talkback. Could one of those ‘pros’ be googling me right now? Medical ethics should stipulate protections for my privacy (online).

Can physicians google their patients and be HIPAA compliant?

While this approach does not directly violate HIPAA regulations, it is a practice wrapped in ethical complexities.
