Do nursing quality improvement coordinator has the right to access patient information under hipaa?
HIPAA is pretty nebulous about who should access specific types of data, so that really puts the decision in the hands of whichever auditor shows up to evaluate the controls and processes that protect patient data. This question is essentially about right and wrong. Unless there is a clear need for a QI to access patient information, then he or she shouldn't. Period. If the QI is conducting an investigation, driven by either an incident or as part of a process improvement initiative, then it might be acceptable. However, the patient should be notified ahead of time, and give his or her permission to proceed. Yes, that's a hassle. And yes, it's possible to structure the HIPAA notification to allow access to the patient's data under certain circumstances. But that doesn't make it ethically right.
