Trusted Answers For Doctor-Patient Confidentiality Issues

Outside of narrow circumstances, a patient typically must consent before their medical information can be shared. This is largely due to the highly personal and sensitive nature of medical information. Health care professionals who wrongly disclose a patient’s confidential medical information may be subject to legal action.

At Icenogle & Associates, LLC, I am a lawyer who works closely with my clients on issues pertaining to a breach of confidentiality. While my firm primarily works with mental health professionals, I have broad experience working with doctors, nurses and other medical employees.

I bring more than 25 years of experience practicing health law to your case. You can feel confident in my ability to reach an effective resolution that protects your professional future.

Close Representation For Mental Health Professionals

Mental health workers, including psychologists and social workers, often find themselves facing challenging questions surrounding what information they can and cannot share. This is especially true during contentious custody arguments. If the patient is a minor, one parent may want those therapy sessions released to the court.

Having practiced medicine for more than 35 years, I am intimately familiar with the ethical challenges medical professionals face daily. I built my practice to help my clients adhere to state and federal ethical guidelines. Through my extensive professional background and history of successful resolutions, I am frequently asked to speak on matters of professional ethics, including patient confidentiality issues.

I work closely with clients throughout Wisconsin to determine what information they can share. More importantly, I help them determine what information would constitute a breach of patient-physician confidentiality. This diligent approach to these issues has proven invaluable to clients throughout the state.
