Q&A: School requiring detailed doctor's notes
Source: Revenue Cycle Advisor
Q: My child’s school requires parents to send a doctor’s note when a student is out sick for more than two days. After providing this note for my child, his teacher spoke to me and mentioned information she could only have learned if she had read the note. Is this a HIPAA violation? Are schools covered by HIPAA if they request doctor's notes?
