About confidentiality during treatment
Confidentiality is a concern for many who think about seeking help for substance abuse. Fortunately, several federal laws are in place to protect the privacy of those in treatment.
Federal law 42Cfr part 2 mandates that all licensed substance-abuse treatment providers comply with federal confidentiality standards regarding alcohol and drug-abuse patient records. These standards prevent the release of records, including assessments and requests for services, except where the law requires provides to report elder abuse or child abuse, or where a client provides written to release information.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) establishes additional privacy and security standards to protect the confidentiality clients' health information. For details, visit the HIPAA website.
