Connor Update

[TheGuy9]

Frank is not a provider, so the point is moot.

It's definitely not a violation. The law only applies to individuals who have access to medical records or actual medical personnel. Heck even if Frank fell into one of those categories, what he said does not violate the statute as there was no detail, and it was public knowledge.
While there may actually be a need for HIPPA, the driving force behind it was to shield the Rich and Famous from having embarrassing information leaked to the public. If you are an everyday JOE, nobody gives a crap about what procedure you had done. Just another case where the Government built an. expensive system to protect a handful of people that cost's a whole lot of $$$$$ to implement and maintain.

It does affect the average Joe because there can be situations where disclosure of health issues can affect your employment, for example, among other things. Disclosure that you are seeing a Psychologist for certain things or are a recovering drug addict can impact your personal life in many ways. Even during the Pandemic disclosure that you were the first to bring Covid into your small town would have had a negative effect perhaps.

Thanks for going into detail on how you’re an absolute complete imbecile.

Paid? He just takes people's money.

Just like football players at Iowa State?

I'd shake the hand of a man that violated a HIPPO.

I’m probably an idiot but this made me literally laugh out loud. Was it just me or did anyone else find this ridiculously funny

 

[RLMHAWK]

Probably just shake the stump of his arm...the hippo would take the fist 20" of hand and arm and call it gourmet.

I dont think that would be the "end" that they where "violating"

 

[BBHawk]

I hope Frank keeps following the Hawks.

As therapist, a psychologist, or a trainer. If he is going to be a cheer leader for the Hawkeye Basketball team long after Luka leaves, he might as well get paid for it. Count me in. P.S. can he recruit too?

Not legally...

 

[Ronman]

So....Does anyone have any news on how Connor is doing?

 

[Ronman]

So, once again, has anyone heard how Connor is doing after his two surgeries?

I have heard he is doing pretty well. He will not be practicing, per se, this Summer but should be good to go by early Fall.
