clancynut Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Any idea what scumbag in the organization decided that HIPPA doesn't apply to him and leaked Easley's medical information to the News? Doesn't HIPAA only apply to medical personnel?
Captain Caveman Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 HIPAA doesn't apply to NFL players. The NFLPA has an agreement with the NFL that lets teams disclose whatever a player has. If they didn't, you would never know what a player is injured with. non-football injuries are not generally disclosed by the team. i would guess the bills had permission to release the info.
NoSaint Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Hence the weekly injury report/list for each team. Probable (knee) Questionable (head) Doubtful (hand) Out (leg) Isn't really in depth medical info.
