Can a hospital still treat a patient who refuses to sign the Notice of Privacy Practice?
Yes. The Notice of Privacy Practice, by federal law, does not have to be signed ("acknowledged") in order to receive treatment. Medical practice providers are only required by law to make a good faith effort to provide the notice. If a patient declines, the service provider must document the refusal with a reason why. Additionally, signing said notice does not "mean that you have agreed to any special uses or disclosures of your health records."
