Patient privacy!
Some news from abroad: what we know as HIPAA is called the “Data Protection Act” in the United Kingdom.
Dr. Alan Rockoff
“We are obliged to conform to the demands of the Data Protection Act, and this specifically applies to the rabbi publicly mentioning the names of individuals who are unwell. The rabbi can only mention specific individuals with their permission or that of a relative designated by the sick person to do so. Anyone wishing for the rabbi to say a public prayer on their behalf must contact him directly by phone, text, or e-mail. To do anything else is breaking the law.”
