Breach of confidentiality.
This has been a simple overview of confidentiality and documentation for health information leaders. However, it was no simple issue for 'Mary' or the health information manager. The important issue of confidentiality should not be neglected. We need to be concerned with confidentiality education and awareness for all healthcare employees. We are health information leaders, so we should take every opportunity to promote the tenets of confidentiality.
