Members are entitled to confidential treatment of member communications and records. Case discussion, consultation, examination, claims and treatment are confidential and must be conducted discreetly. A provider shall permit a patient to request, and shall accommodate requests for, confidential communication in the form and format requested by the patient, if it is readily producible in the requested form and format, or at alternative locations. The confidential communication request shall apply to all communications that disclose medical information or provider name and address related to receipt of medical services by the individual requesting the confidential communication. Written authorization from the member or authorized legal representative must be obtained before medical records are released to anyone not directly concerned with the member's care, except as permitted or as necessary for administration by the health plan.
